You can only know and think about it by actually doing it. It is no use asking questions; for it is only through obedience that you come to learn the truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8589</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For only as we ourselves, as adults, actually move and have our being in the state of love, can we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45517]]></link><description><![CDATA[For only as we ourselves, as adults, actually move and have our being in the state of love, can we be appropriate models and guides for our children.
