But this, though a sort of love we need, is not the sort we want. We want to be loved for our cleverness, beauty, generosity, fairness, usefulness. The first hint that anyone is offering us the highest love of all is a terrible shock. This is so well recognized that spiteful people will pretend to be loving us with Charity precisely because they know that it will wound us. To say to one who expects a renewal of Affection, Friendship, or Eros, "I forgive you as a Christian" is merely a way of continuing the quarrel. Those who say it are of course lying. But the thing would not be falsely said in order to wound unless, if it were true, it would be wounding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62977]]></link><description><![CDATA[A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't get many bites, but you can get some big bass, especially when the pattern first develops. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40401]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't get many bites, but you can get some big bass, especially when the pattern first develops.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Extravagance is the luxury of the poor; penury is the luxury of the rich ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14766]]></link><description><![CDATA[Extravagance is the luxury of the poor; penury is the luxury of the rich]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64859]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good man, through obscurest aspirations Has still an instinct of the one true way.  [Ger., Ein guter Mensch, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17859]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good man, through obscurest aspirations Has still an instinct of the one true way.  [Ger., Ein guter Mensch, in seinem dunkeln Drange,   Ist sich des rechten Weges sohl bewusst.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is common for those that are farthest from God, to boast themselves most of their being near to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8676]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is common for those that are farthest from God, to boast themselves most of their being near to the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63371]]></link><description><![CDATA[You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only reason I don't like playing in the World Series is I can't watch myself play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57640]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only reason I don't like playing in the World Series is I can't watch myself play.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We did spot an opportunity in property at a time when the market was neglecting the sector. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31365]]></link><description><![CDATA[We did spot an opportunity in property at a time when the market was neglecting the sector.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be at War with your Vices, at Peace with your Neighbours, and let every New-Year find you a better Man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64513]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be at War with your Vices, at Peace with your Neighbours, and let every New-Year find you a better Man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Solitude is the nurse of enthusiasm, and enthusiasm is the true parent of genius.
