If, after all His claims and promises, Christ had died and merely lived on as a fragrant memory, He would only be revered as an extremely good but profoundly mistaken man. His claims to be God, His claims to be Himself the very principle of life, would be mere self-delusion. His authoritative pronouncements on the nature of God and Man and Life would be at once suspect. Why should He be right about the lesser things, if He was proved to be completely wrong in the greater?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If out of all mankind one finds a single friend, he has found something more precious than any treasure, since ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26308]]></link><description><![CDATA[If out of all mankind one finds a single friend, he has found something more precious than any treasure, since there is nothing in the world so valuable that it can be compared to a real friend.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is one of the destinies of speech...

His existence is both objectively and subjectively evident. It is necessary logically because our assumption of order, design, and rationality rests upon it. It is necessary morally because there is no explanation for the shape of morality apart from it. It is necessary emotionally because the human experience requires an immediate and ultimate environment. It is necessary personally because the exhaustion of all material possibilities still cannot give satisfaction to the heart. The deepest proof for God's existence, apart from history, is just life itself. God has created man in his image, and men cannot elude the implications of this fact. Everywhere their identity pursues them. Ultimately, there is no escape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I kissed her hard and held her tight and tried to open her lips; they were closed tight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23871]]></link><description><![CDATA[I kissed her hard and held her tight and tried to open her lips; they were closed tight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conferences at the top level are always courteous.
