I made sure to tell them that Wood River was a good team, a team that is going to come in here and give us a good fight. They beat us in this tournament every year.

The difference between sex and death is that with death you can do it alone and no one is going to make fun of you. •Woody Allen  At the end of the game the king and the pawn go back in the same box. •Italian Proverb  Life is a great surprise. I don't see why death should not be an even greater one. •Vladimir Nabokov  Dear World, I am leaving because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck. •George Sanders, his suicide note  There is no cure for birth and death save to enjoy the interval. •Santayana  Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh. •George Bernard Shaw  Do not go gentle into that good night. Old age should burn and rave at close of day. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. •Dylan Thomas  To live is to dream and to die is to awaken. •Anonymous   We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so at the moment after death. •Nathaniel Hawthorne  All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. •Anatole France   We are bound to our bodies like an oyster is to its shell. •Plato   Dying is like getting out of a car. You leave a shell behind, but you're the same person as ever. •President Klein  The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy . What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly. •Richard Bach  If there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life. •Albert Camus   We do not know what to do with this short life, yet we yearn for another that will be eternal. •Anatole France  I'm the one who has to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life, the way I want to. •Jimi Hendrix  The real malady is fear of life, not of death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A great many complimentary things have been said about the faculty of memory, and if you look in a good ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26934]]></link><description><![CDATA[A great many complimentary things have been said about the faculty of memory, and if you look in a good quotation book you will find them neatly arranged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For all of the creeds are false, and all of the creeds are true; And low at the shrines where ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62311]]></link><description><![CDATA[For all of the creeds are false, and all of the creeds are true; And low at the shrines where my brothers bow, there will I bow too;  For no form of a god, and no fashion   Man has made in his desperate passion,    But is worthy some worship of mine;     Not too hot with a gross belief,      Nor yet too cold with pride,       I will bow me down where my brothers bow,        Humble, but open eyed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All Christians believe in divine sovereignty but some are not aware that they do, and mistakenly imagine and insist that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6773]]></link><description><![CDATA[All Christians believe in divine sovereignty but some are not aware that they do, and mistakenly imagine and insist that they reject it. What causes this odd state of affairs? The root cause is the same as in most cases of error in the Church--the intruding of rationalistic speculations, the passion for systematic consistency, a reluctance to recognize the existence of mystery and to let God be wiser than men, and a consequent subjecting of Scripture to the supposed demands of human logic. People see that the Bible teaches man's responsibility for his actions; they do not see how this is consistent with the sovereign Lordship of God over those actions. They are not content to let the two truths live side by side, as they do in the Scriptures, but jump to the conclusion that, in order to uphold the biblical truth of human responsibility, they are bound to reject the equally biblical and equally true doctrine of divine sovereignty, and to explain away the great number of texts that teach it. The desire to over-simplify the Bible by cutting out the mysteries is natural to our perverse minds, and it is not surprising, that even good men should fall victims to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're overwhelmed with the orders and requests but it just seemed to be the thing to do.

Every principle of selection, every separation connected with it that is not necessitated quite objectively by common work, local conditions, or family connections is of the greatest danger to a Christian community. When the way of intellectual or spiritual selection is taken, the human element always insinuates itself and robs the fellowship of its spiritual power and its effectiveness for the Church, and drives it into sectarianism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The prudence of the best heads is often defeated by tenderness of the best hearts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58953]]></link><description><![CDATA[The prudence of the best heads is often defeated by tenderness of the best hearts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These surveys confirm the country's growing concern about excessive secrecy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29285]]></link><description><![CDATA[These surveys confirm the country's growing concern about excessive secrecy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29285</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is always a way to go if you look for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22571]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is always a way to go if you look for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not the fastest horse can catch a word spoken in anger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not the fastest horse can catch a word spoken in anger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world seems ... a little less funny without you in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33254]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world seems ... a little less funny without you in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that labours and thrives spins gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that labours and thrives spins gold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dynamics that are required to make any relationship work: Just keep putting your love out there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2234]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dynamics that are required to make any relationship work: Just keep putting your love out there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death is a black camel, which kneels at the gates of all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death is a black camel, which kneels at the gates of all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To drink Falernian wine, the sweeter for being stolen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50526]]></link><description><![CDATA[To drink Falernian wine, the sweeter for being stolen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The case is a prototype of the new post-Afghanistan network - a little bit of everything: native-born radicals, immigrants from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35845]]></link><description><![CDATA[The case is a prototype of the new post-Afghanistan network - a little bit of everything: native-born radicals, immigrants from Morocco, travel to places like Saudi Arabia, connection to operations like Madrid.
