When self-esteem is low, our resilience in the face of life's adversities is diminished. We crumble before vicissitudes that a healthier sense of self could vanquish. We tend to be more influenced by the desire to avoid pain than to experience joy. Negatives have more power over us than positives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I must have liberty Withal, as large a charter as the wind, To blow on whom I please. -As You ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55652]]></link><description><![CDATA[I must have liberty Withal, as large a charter as the wind, To blow on whom I please. -As You Like It.

The prophets were men called by God to serve as His messengers to a stubborn and unheeding people. They were always careful to point out that they were not voicing their own wisdom. Their warnings, entreaties, and promises were always prefaced by the awesome proclamation: "Thus says the Lord..." When the prophets did engage in prognostication, they usually were concerned with events which were fairly close at hand, such as the Assyrian conquest of Israel and the Babylonian conquest of Judah (both of which they foretold with deadly accuracy). But occasionally a prophet's vision ranged farther into the future, to the day when God would enter into a new covenant with his rebellious children. The hope of reconciliation was often linked with the coming of a very particular person, a Messiah or Savior.  What made the prophets so sure that they had a right--nay, a duty, to speak in the name of God? It is clear from their writings that they were not megalomaniacs who confused their own thoughts with the voice of God. On the contrary, they were humble men, awe-stricken by the responsibilities thrust upon them... The prophets minced no words in their indictments of the sins of Israel and Judah, and they trod especially hard on the toes of the rich, the powerful, and the pious. The Establishment responded then as some church members are wont to respond now when a preacher speaks out on controversial public issues: "One should not preach of such things!" (Micah 2:6).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important benefit of population size and growth is the increase it brings to the stock of useful knowledge. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15737]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important benefit of population size and growth is the increase it brings to the stock of useful knowledge.

The Christian is not a homo religiosus but a man, pure and simple, just as Jesus became man... It is only by living completely in this world that one learns to believe. One must abandon every attempt to make something of oneself, whether it be a saint, a converted sinner, a churchman, a righteous man, or an unrighteous one, a sick man or a healthy one... This is what I mean by worldliness -- taking life in one's stride, with all its duties and problems, its successes and failures, its experiences and helplessness... How can success make us arrogant or failure lead us astray, when we participate in the sufferings of God by living in this world?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Negotiation in the classic diplomatic sense assumes parties more anxious to agree than to disagree ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33280]]></link><description><![CDATA[Negotiation in the classic diplomatic sense assumes parties more anxious to agree than to disagree]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33280</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Musicians duet better ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43545]]></link><description><![CDATA[Musicians duet better]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I threw him back.
