The emphasis is on unselfish. Excepting a small minority of mercenary or sadistic disposition, wars are not fought for personal gain, but out of loyalty and devotion to king, country or cause. Homicide committed for personal reasons is a statistical rarity in all cultures, including our own. Homicide for unselfish reasons, at the risk of one's own life, is the dominant phenomenon of history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10112]]></link><description><![CDATA[I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule of conversing with all descriptions of men on those topics that form their own peculiar professions and pursuits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His thirst he slakes at some pure neighboring brook, Nor seeks for sauce where Appetite stands cook. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2895]]></link><description><![CDATA[His thirst he slakes at some pure neighboring brook, Nor seeks for sauce where Appetite stands cook.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Facts are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Facts are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of our necessities is strange, That can make vile things precious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44076]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of our necessities is strange, That can make vile things precious.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A brother shares childhood memories and grown-up dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66121]]></link><description><![CDATA[A brother shares childhood memories and grown-up dreams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[October turned by maple's leaves to gold; The most are gone now; here and there one lingers;  Soon these ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44895]]></link><description><![CDATA[October turned by maple's leaves to gold; The most are gone now; here and there one lingers;  Soon these will slip from the twig's weak hold,   Like coins between a dying miser's fingers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God's timing in moving me down here was perfect, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39159]]></link><description><![CDATA[God's timing in moving me down here was perfect,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the world as much as adversity has. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8981]]></link><description><![CDATA[Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the world as much as adversity has.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before marriage, a girl has to make love to a man to hold him.

Paul, too, used this expression, but he placed alongside it a parallel form of words, "in Christ" or "in Christ Jesus". Where we find these words used we are being reminded of the intimate union with Christ which makes the Christian life an eternal life lived in the midst of time. The deeper shade of meaning would often be conveyed to our minds if we translated the phrase "in communion with Christ". But, Paul's Christ mysticism is saved from the introverted individualism of many forms of mysticism by his insistence that communion with Christ is also communion with all who are Christ's.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody, sooner or later, sits down to a banquet of consequences. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9834]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody, sooner or later, sits down to a banquet of consequences.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of living well and the art of dying well are one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64262]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The habitual living in prosperity is most injurious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51635]]></link><description><![CDATA[The habitual living in prosperity is most injurious.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In art, the obvious is a sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63509]]></link><description><![CDATA[In art, the obvious is a sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wanted to tell a story of violence and intolerance but in a contemporary way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41429]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wanted to tell a story of violence and intolerance but in a contemporary way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It fooled him, how many other people are getting fooled? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35082]]></link><description><![CDATA[It fooled him, how many other people are getting fooled?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great American novel has not only already been written, it has already been rejected. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4567]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great American novel has not only already been written, it has already been rejected.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4567</guid></item></channel></rss>
