One of them climbed up quickly into a tree and concealed himself in the branches. The other, seeing that he must be attacked, fell flat on the ground, and when the Bear came up and felt him with his snout, and smelt him all over, he held his breath, and feigned the appearance of death as much as he could. The Bear soon left him, for it is said he will not touch a dead body. When he was quite gone, the other Traveler descended from the tree, and jocularly inquired of his friend what it was the Bear had whispered in his ear. He gave me this advice, his companion replied. Never travel with a friend who deserts you at the approach of danger. Misfortune tests the sincerity of friends.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex. . . .

It does not love him because he is such-and-such a person but because he is there. In all this it is quite the opposite of natural love: it "does not seek its own". It does not perform the characteristic natural impulse of love and life. Therefore it is basically independent of the conduct of the other person; it is not conditional but absolute. It wants nothing for itself but only for others. Therefore it is also not vulnerable. It never "reacts" but is always "spontaneous", emerging by its own strength -- rather, from the power of God. Love is the real God-likeness of man for which he has been created. In so far as love is in man he really resembles God and shows himself to be the child of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man is about as big as the things that make him angry ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2521]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man is about as big as the things that make him angry]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think anyone should write their autobiography until after they're dead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3540]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think anyone should write their autobiography until after they're dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3540</guid></item></channel></rss>
