We pray, too often, not to do God's will, but to enlist God's assistance in maintaining our "continually increasing consumption". And yet, though Christ promised that God would feed us, he never promised that God would stuff us to bursting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8370</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have to know the past to understand the present. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45658]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have to know the past to understand the present.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been Skinny; it's fucking boring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61513]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've been Skinny; it's fucking boring.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be in prison so long, it's difficult to remember exactly what you did to get there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36822]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be in prison so long, it's difficult to remember exactly what you did to get there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my opinion, we looked the more challenging side, but we made too many silly errors which gifted them soft ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30672]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my opinion, we looked the more challenging side, but we made too many silly errors which gifted them soft points.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole is more than the sum of its parts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44708]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole is more than the sum of its parts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18761]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm really proud of what we've done ? and I say we because it's been the coaches and the community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38239]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm really proud of what we've done ? and I say we because it's been the coaches and the community.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For some extraordinary reason, the Church moves in an atmosphere of antiquity.

Can I really be expected to take this seriously?In fact, of course, it is necessary for it to be nonsense; if it made sense, it could be evaluated. The essence of modern intellectual snobbery is the 'emperor's new cloths' approach. Teachers, critics, our self-appointed intellectual elite, make it quite clear to us that if we cannot see the superlative nature of this 'art'- why, it merely shows our ignorance, our lack of sophistication and insight. Of course, they go beyond the storybook emperor's tailors, who dressed their victim in nothing and called it fine garments. The modern tailors dress the emperor in garbage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Purposelessness is the fruitful mother of crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10676]]></link><description><![CDATA[Purposelessness is the fruitful mother of crime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only religion is kindness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only religion is kindness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When firmness is sufficient, rashness is unnecessary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16035]]></link><description><![CDATA[When firmness is sufficient, rashness is unnecessary.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Listening is a positive act: you have to put yourself out to do it. - David HockneyrnListening is a positive ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Listening is a positive act: you have to put yourself out to do it. - David HockneyrnListening is a positive act: you have to put yourself out to do it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh! do not attack me with your watch.
