If I were to give it to you, you would think yourself of some importance, you would fancy that you had gained something very great. Because you asked for it, you have it. But take care to make good use of it. Before you had it, you were humble; now that you have begun to be rich you despise the poor. What kind of a good is that which only makes you worse? For worse you are, since you were bad already. And that it would make you worse you knew not; hence you asked it of Me. I gave it to you, and I proved you; you have found -- and you have found out! Ask of Me better things than these, greater things than these. Ask of Me spiritual things. Ask of Me Myself!".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a tear for all who die, A mourner o'er the humblest grave.   - Lord Byron (George ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58788]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a tear for all who die, A mourner o'er the humblest grave.   - Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron),]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58788</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As any bidder, Smith & Johnson was required to secure services of a bonding company in the role of an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38058]]></link><description><![CDATA[As any bidder, Smith & Johnson was required to secure services of a bonding company in the role of an insurance company.
