A hard necessity that is, not to want something which can not be avoided. If it could be managed, we would much rather not die; we would like to become like the angels by some other means than death. "We have a building from God," says St. Paul, "a home not made with hands, everlasting in heaven. For indeed we groan, longing to be clothed over with our dwelling from heaven; provided, though we be found clothed, and not naked. For indeed we who are in this dwelling place groan, being burdened; in that we do not wish to be stripped, but to covered over, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life." We want to reach the kingdom of God, but we don't want to travel by way of death. And yet there stands Necessity saying: "This way, please." Do you hesitate, man, to go this way, when this is the way that God came to you?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If A equals success, then the formula is A equals X plus Y and Z, with X being work, Y ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17872]]></link><description><![CDATA[If A equals success, then the formula is A equals X plus Y and Z, with X being work, Y play, and Z keeping your mouth shut.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who laughs last has not yet heard the bad news. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20107]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who laughs last has not yet heard the bad news.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human brutes, like other beasts, find snares and poison in the provision of life, and are allured by their appetites ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55164]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human brutes, like other beasts, find snares and poison in the provision of life, and are allured by their appetites to their destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It hurt us deeply because the family was actually a part of our family at the veterans of foreign wars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38885]]></link><description><![CDATA[It hurt us deeply because the family was actually a part of our family at the veterans of foreign wars.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man is not a wall, whose stones are crushed upon the road; or a pipe, whose fragments are thrown ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22885]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man is not a wall, whose stones are crushed upon the road; or a pipe, whose fragments are thrown away at a street corner.

Charisma was originally a religious term, meaning "of the spirit" or "inspired." It's about letting God's light shine through us. It's about a sparkle in people that money can't buy.
