You do get into situations where you think, 'What should I do? Shouldn't I intervene? Shouldn't I do something?' I think if you get to that point you have to make a decision. I've said to people, if you feel it's wrong just being a reporter and you can't do enough, well it's time to become an aid worker and train to be someone who really knows what to do.

I wis, if it had pleased Him, He might have saved us and never felt pain; but in suffering pains and death He did give us example, and teach us how we should do one for another, as He did for us all; for, as He saith himself, "he that will be mine, let him deny himself, and follow me, in bearing my cross and suffering my pains."

I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God. All the beauty and truth which I had discovered had come to me as a reflection of his beauty, but I had kept my eyes fixed on the reflection and was always looking at myself. But God had brought me to the point at which I was compelled to turn away from the reflection, both of myself and of the world which could only mirror my own image. During that night the mirror had been broken, and I had felt abandoned because I could no longer gaze upon the image of my own reason and the finite world which it knew. God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I invite our friends and allies to work together for the commitment of democracy, freedom and peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39082]]></link><description><![CDATA[I invite our friends and allies to work together for the commitment of democracy, freedom and peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God gave burdens, also shoulders. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22121]]></link><description><![CDATA[God gave burdens, also shoulders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The story of the human race is the story of men and womenselling themselves short. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21783]]></link><description><![CDATA[The story of the human race is the story of men and womenselling themselves short.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Lion in LoveA lion demanded the daughter of a woodcutter in marriage.

The Father, unwilling to grant, and yet afraid to refuse his request, hit upon this expedient to rid himself of his importunities. He expressed his willingness to accept the Lion as the suitor of his daughter on one condition: that he should allow him to extract his teeth, and cut off his claws, as his daughter was fearfully afraid of both. The Lion cheerfully assented to the proposal. But when the toothless, clawless Lion returned to repeat his request, the Woodman, no longer afraid, set upon him with his club, and drove him away into the forest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a maxim to me that no man was ever written out of reputation but by himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53875]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a maxim to me that no man was ever written out of reputation but by himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This year, our only issue is competitiveness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30205]]></link><description><![CDATA[This year, our only issue is competitiveness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The end comes when we no longer talk with ourselves.
