One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you.... The one who turns to his friends and says, 'that's her.']]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To give somebody your time is the biggest gift you can give. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66223]]></link><description><![CDATA[To give somebody your time is the biggest gift you can give.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should fight terror, by all means, but not at the cost of cutting off any chance of talks with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29093]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should fight terror, by all means, but not at the cost of cutting off any chance of talks with the pragmatists.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Admonish your friends in private; praise them in public. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51581]]></link><description><![CDATA[Admonish your friends in private; praise them in public.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The universe is made up of stories, not of atoms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25320]]></link><description><![CDATA[The universe is made up of stories, not of atoms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25320</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune and love favour the brave. [Lat., Audentum Forsque Venusque juvant.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4863]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune and love favour the brave. [Lat., Audentum Forsque Venusque juvant.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Promise made is a debt unpaid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59764]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Promise made is a debt unpaid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gold!

Certainly Jeremiah was no integrated personality. It is doubtful if... he ever knew the meaning of the word "peace". We have no evidence that his internal struggle was ever ended, although the passing years no doubt brought an increasing acceptance of destiny. Jeremiah, if his "confessions" are any index, needed a course in pastoral psychiatry in the very worst way... The feeling cannot be escaped that if Jeremiah had been integrated, it would have been at the cost of ceasing to be Jeremiah! A man at peace simply could not be a Jeremiah. Spiritual health is good; mental assurance is good; but the summons of faith is neither to an integrated personality nor to the laying-by of all questions, but to the dedication of personality -- with all its fears and questions -- to its duty and destiny under God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one nature--the division into science and engineering is a human imposition, not a natural one.

In these days, when men are so gladly hearing afresh that "in Him there is no darkness at all"; that God, therefore could not have created any man if He knew that he must live in torture to all eternity; and that His hatred to evil cannot be expressed by injustice, itself the one essence of evil, -- for certainly it would be nothing less than injustice to punish infinitely what was finitely committed, no sinner being capable of understanding the abstract enormity of what he does, -- in these days has a arisen another falsehood, less, yet very perilous: thousands of half-thinkers imagine that, since it is declared with such authority that hell is not everlasting, there is then no hell at all. To such folly, I, for one, have never given enticement or shelter. I see no hope for many, no way for the divine love to reach them, save through a very ghastly hell. Men have got to repent; there is no other escape for them, and no escape from that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8106</guid></item></channel></rss>
