It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I heard him yell at [All-America first baseman Aaron] Bates the other day.

That is the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoe'er has gone thro' London street, Has seen a butcher gazing at his meat,  And how he keeps  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5135]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoe'er has gone thro' London street, Has seen a butcher gazing at his meat,  And how he keeps   Gloating upon a sheep's    Or bullock's personals, as if his own;     How he admires his halves      And quarters--and his calves,       As if in truth upon his own legs grown.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19606]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: Be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20372]]></link><description><![CDATA[The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: Be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry.
