His existence is both objectively and subjectively evident. It is necessary logically because our assumption of order, design, and rationality rests upon it. It is necessary morally because there is no explanation for the shape of morality apart from it. It is necessary emotionally because the human experience requires an immediate and ultimate environment. It is necessary personally because the exhaustion of all material possibilities still cannot give satisfaction to the heart. The deepest proof for God's existence, apart from history, is just life itself. God has created man in his image, and men cannot elude the implications of this fact. Everywhere their identity pursues them. Ultimately, there is no escape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's still interesting times, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38789]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's still interesting times,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38789</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Donne, Priest, Poet, 1631  Though natural men, who have induced secondary and figurative consideration, have found ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8181]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Donne, Priest, Poet, 1631  Though natural men, who have induced secondary and figurative consideration, have found out this... emblematical use of sleep, that it should be a representation of death, God, who wrought and perfected his work, before Nature began, (for Nature was but his Apprentice, to learn in the first seven days, and now is his foreman, and works next under him) God, I say, intended sleep only for the refreshing of man by bodily rest, and not for a figure of death, for he intended not death itself then. But Man having induced death upon himself, God hath taken Man's Creature, death, into his hand, and mended it, and whereas it hath in itself a fearfull form and aspect, so that Man is afraid of his own Creature, God presents it to him, in a familiar, in an assiduous, in an agreeable and acceptable form, in sleep, that so when he awakes from sleep and says to himself, shall I be no otherwise when I am dead, than I was even now, when I was asleep, he may be ashamed of his waking dreams, and of his Melancholique fancying out a horrid and an affrightful figure of that death which is so like sleep. As then we need sleep to live out our threescore and ten years, so we need death, to live that life which we cannot out-live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No hammers fell, no ponderous axes rung, Like some tall palm the mystic fabric sprung.  Majestic silence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3023]]></link><description><![CDATA[No hammers fell, no ponderous axes rung, Like some tall palm the mystic fabric sprung.  Majestic silence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing so aggravating as a fresh boy who is too old to ignore and too young to kick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4815]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing so aggravating as a fresh boy who is too old to ignore and too young to kick.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3111]]></link><description><![CDATA[A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an army of thieves]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am afraid the Israeli project aims to make Gaza a Palestinian state... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41317]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am afraid the Israeli project aims to make Gaza a Palestinian state...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis use alone that sanctifies expense And splendor borrow all her rays from sense. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55109]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis use alone that sanctifies expense And splendor borrow all her rays from sense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have seen gross intolerance shown in support of tolerance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59435]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have seen gross intolerance shown in support of tolerance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am but mad north-north-west.
