If the universe were a mere chaos of chances, or if it were a result of absolute necessity, there would be no place for intelligent prayer; but if it is under the control of a Lawgiver, wise and merciful, not a mere manager of material machinery, but a true Father of all, then we can come to such a Being with our requests -- not in the belief that we change His great plans, nor that any advantage could result from this if it were possible, but that these plans may be made in his boundless wisdom and love to meet our necessities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are convinced that we are true soul mates.

Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day.

The practical organization offers opportunities for self-advancement, and its appeal is mainly to self-interest. On the other hand, a mass movement, particularly in its active, revivalist phase, appeals not to those intent on bolstering and advancing a cherished self, but to those who crave to be rid of an unwanted self. A mass movement attracts and holds a following not because it can satisfy the desire for self-advancement, but because it can satisfy the passion for self-renunciation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is often the result of being too busy to be miserable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18665]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness is often the result of being too busy to be miserable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are going to try to improve our mental attitude that we are able to defend at a 10 level ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35468]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are going to try to improve our mental attitude that we are able to defend at a 10 level no matter what happened at the other end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because they commonly make use of treasure found in books, as of other treasure belonging to the dead and hidden ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46635]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because they commonly make use of treasure found in books, as of other treasure belonging to the dead and hidden underground; for they dispose of both with great secrecy, defacing the shape and image of the one as much as of the other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have, in fact, two kinds of morality side by side; one which we preach but do not practice, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43089]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have, in fact, two kinds of morality side by side; one which we preach but do not practice, and another which we practice but seldom preach.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was never less alone than when by myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25537]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was never less alone than when by myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability.It is the ability to recognize ability. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22617]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability.It is the ability to recognize ability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  He was too great for his disciples.

And in view of what he plainly said, is it any wonder that all who were rich and prosperous felt a horror of strange things, a swimming of their world at his teaching? Perhaps the priests and the rich men understood him better than his followers. He was dragging out all the little private reservations they had made from social service into the light of a universal religious life. He was like some terrible moral huntsman digging mankind out of the snug burrows in which they had lived hitherto. In the white blaze of this kingdom of his there was to be no property, no privilege, no pride and precedence; no motive indeed and no reward but love. Is it any wonder that men were dazzled and blinded and cried out against him? Even his disciples cried out when he would not spare them the light. Is it any wonder that the priests realized that between this man and themselves there was no choice but that he or priestcraft should perish? Is it any wonder that the Roman soldiers, confronted and amazed by something soaring over their comprehension and threatening all their disciplines, should take refuge in wild laughter, and crown him with thorns and robe him in purple and make a mock Caesar of him? For to take him seriously was to enter upon a strange and alarming life, to abandon habits, to control instincts and impulses, to essay an incredible happiness... Is it any wonder that to this day this Galilean is too much for our small hearts?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is really a serious concern when the captain shows his disappointment.
