The best games are not those in whichall goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those inwhich the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life isdesigned to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty anduncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. Wesurvive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want itany other way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The coward calls himself cautious, the miser thrifty. [Lat., Timidus se vocat cautum, parcum sordidus.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10505]]></link><description><![CDATA[The coward calls himself cautious, the miser thrifty. [Lat., Timidus se vocat cautum, parcum sordidus.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in badcompany. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21463]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in badcompany.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21463</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One must always tell what one sees.

To say that we must wait for the other world, to know the mind of Him who came to this world to give Himself to us, seems to me the foolishness of a worldly and lazy spirit. The Son of God is the teacher of men, giving to them of His Spirit -- that Spirit which manifests the deep things of God, being to a man the mind of Christ. The great heresy of the Church of the present day is unbelief in this Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contemplation makes a rare turkey cock of him.
