Life in God is not an escape from this, but a way to gain full insight concerning it. It is not our depravity which forces a fictitious religious explanation upon us, but the experience of religious reality which forces the "Night Side" out into the light. It is when we stand in the righteous all-seeing light of love that we can dare to look at, admit, and consciously suffer under this something in us which wills disaster, misfortune, defeat to everything outside the sphere of our narrowest self interest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45859]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give every man your ear, but few thy voice.

But men make themselves so unworthy of it that it is only just that God should refuse to some because of the hardness of heart what He gives to others from a compassion that they do not deserve. If He had wanted to overcome the obstinacy of the most hardened, He could have done so by revealing Himself to them so obviously that they could not have doubted the truth of His Being -- just as He will appear at the last day with such a clap of thunder and such an upheaval of nature that the dead will revive and the blindest will see. It is not in this way, however, that He willed to appear at His gentle coming: because so many men had made themselves unworthy of His mercy, He willed to leave them deprived of the good which they did not desire. And so it would not have been fair for Him to have appeared in an obviously divine manner, absolutely capable of convincing all men. But also it would not have been fair for Him to appear in a manner so hidden that even those who were sincerely seeking Him should not be able to recognize Him... So He has tempered His knowledge, by giving marks of Himself which were visible to those who seek Him, and not to those who seek Him not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I must govern the clock, not be governed by it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64269]]></link><description><![CDATA[I must govern the clock, not be governed by it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65719]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was the running joke in Miami, they were cutting me and recalling me so many times.
