Economic benefits result from the transformation of matter in form, location, or availability (intellectually or temporally).

But when we analyze it, it turns into a complex tangle of paradoxes. We become ourselves by dying to ourselves. We gain only what we give up, and if we give up everything we gain everything. We cannot find ourselves within ourselves, but only in others; yet at the same time, before we can go out to others we must first find ourselves. We must forget ourselves in order to become truly conscious of who we are. The best way to love ourselves is to love others; yet we cannot love others unless we love ourselves, since it is written, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." But if we love ourselves in the wrong way, we become incapable of loving anybody else. And indeed when we love ourselves wrongly, we hate ourselves; if we hate ourselves we cannot help hating others. Yet there is a sense in which we must hate others and leave them in order to find God... As for this finding of God, we cannot even look for Him unless we have already found Him, and we cannot find Him unless He has first found us. We cannot begin to seek Him without a special gift of His grace; yet if we wait for grace to move us before beginning to seek Him, we will probably never begin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the first time this system has been used. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34831]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's the first time this system has been used.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mountain was in labour, and Jove was afraid, but it brought forth a mouse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43317]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mountain was in labour, and Jove was afraid, but it brought forth a mouse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As leopard feels at home with leopard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48542]]></link><description><![CDATA[As leopard feels at home with leopard.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10303]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll seek a four-leaved shamrock in all thy fairy dells, And if I find the charmed leaves, oh, how I'll ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56151]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll seek a four-leaved shamrock in all thy fairy dells, And if I find the charmed leaves, oh, how I'll weave my spells!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We believe that what matters most is not narrow appeals masquerading as values, but the shared values that show the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2382]]></link><description><![CDATA[We believe that what matters most is not narrow appeals masquerading as values, but the shared values that show the true face of America; not narrow values that divide us, but the shared values that unite us: family, faith, hard work, opportunity and responsibility for all, so that every child, every adult, every parent, every worker in America has an equal shot at living up to their God-given potential.

They can't, He said, or they could not live as they are doing. Some of them are so anxious and worried, with all God's care and strength and love to lean against! They cannot know of it, and be so fidgety and nervous as they are. Some of them are afraid. Their consciences have drawn so grim a picture of Him that fearfully they shrink out of His presence, wish there were not God! Frightened of God, with His free and full and eager forgiveness, with His incredible generosity, with His compassionate heart that nobody can sour into illwill, do what he may. And even the best of them are not quite sure. Their faith at most is but a timorous hope, and a trembling perhaps; no more. Often in the Synagogue He had watched them sobbing out their penitential psalms and begging God to turn from anger and be gracious toward them... And it amazed Christ. Look at His sun, He cries, how it streams down in all its midday fullness on the most unworthy, and at the rain, how it falls healingly upon the fields of the least grateful, and how He keeps thrusting His benefits and blessings into the most soiled hands, loading the most impossible people with His kindnesses. If only I could make them see God as He really is: if only they could realize that He is their Father, that what their own child is to them, that, and far more, each of them is to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absence does not make the heart grow fonder, but it sure heats up the blood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25505]]></link><description><![CDATA[Absence does not make the heart grow fonder, but it sure heats up the blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prose--words in their best order;--poetry--the best words in their best order. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46751]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prose--words in their best order;--poetry--the best words in their best order.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagine the Creator as a low comedian, and at once the world becomes explicable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagine the Creator as a low comedian, and at once the world becomes explicable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as much as the dog does. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12676]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as much as the dog does.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We certainly appreciate our working relationship with the mayor and his office. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29263]]></link><description><![CDATA[We certainly appreciate our working relationship with the mayor and his office.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our lives are the only meaningful expression of what we believe and in Whom we believe.
