When the soul has sincerely given itself up to God, He fills it with His own peace, a peace which makes all earthly things indifferent -- as before His Presence, absorbing the heart. It is our strength, our comfort, our guide, the deeper and more confirmed it becomes, the greater our spiritual perfection; so that in truth to obtain and preserve this peace is the real secret of the interior life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Play so that you may be serious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Play so that you may be serious.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63536]]></link><description><![CDATA[For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never assume, for it makes an ASS out of U and ME. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46361]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never assume, for it makes an ASS out of U and ME.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our primary mission is to commercial air service and to support general aviation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39848]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our primary mission is to commercial air service and to support general aviation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Satan hasn't a single salaried helper; the Opposition employ a million. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Satan hasn't a single salaried helper; the Opposition employ a million.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is performed in the same position with creeping. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is performed in the same position with creeping.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is it for certain that everyone is going to be a victim?

So I did it in pee wee, midget, junior high school, high school, college. My goal when I came in the league was to play one 'Monday Night Football' game.

God Himself cannot make a creature to be in itself, or in its own nature, anything else but a state of emptiness. The highest life that is natural and creaturely can go no higher than this: it can only be a bare capacity for goodness and cannot possibly be a good and happy life but by the life of God dwelling in it and in union with it. And this is the two-fold life that, of all necessity, must be united in every good and happy and perfect creature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ask five economists and you'll get five different answers (six if one went to Harvard). ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5087]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ask five economists and you'll get five different answers (six if one went to Harvard).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have need of patience with ourselves and with others; with those below and those above us, and with our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6641]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have need of patience with ourselves and with others; with those below and those above us, and with our own equals; with those who love us and those who love us not; for the greatest things and for the least; against sudden inroads of trouble, and under daily burdens; against disappointments as to the weather, or the breaking of the heart; in the weariness of the body, or the wearing of the soul; in our own failure of duty, or others' failure towards us; in every-day wants, or in the aching of sickness or the decay of old age; in disappointment, bereavement, losses, injuries, reproaches; in heaviness of the heart, or its sickness amid delayed hopes.
