When I hate someone or deny God is his father, it is not he who loses, but I: for then I have no father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8070</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfectionism is the enemy of creation, as extreme self-solitude is the enemy of well-being. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46119]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perfectionism is the enemy of creation, as extreme self-solitude is the enemy of well-being.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The explanation avails nothing, which in leading us from one difficulty involves us in another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50340]]></link><description><![CDATA[The explanation avails nothing, which in leading us from one difficulty involves us in another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50340</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot hold mortality's strong hand. -King John.
