He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've never know any trouble than an hour's reading didn't assuage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4586]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've never know any trouble than an hour's reading didn't assuage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being is.

But when we analyze it, it turns into a complex tangle of paradoxes. We become ourselves by dying to ourselves. We gain only what we give up, and if we give up everything we gain everything. We cannot find ourselves within ourselves, but only in others; yet at the same time, before we can go out to others we must first find ourselves. We must forget ourselves in order to become truly conscious of who we are. The best way to love ourselves is to love others; yet we cannot love others unless we love ourselves, since it is written, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." But if we love ourselves in the wrong way, we become incapable of loving anybody else. And indeed when we love ourselves wrongly, we hate ourselves; if we hate ourselves we cannot help hating others. Yet there is a sense in which we must hate others and leave them in order to find God... As for this finding of God, we cannot even look for Him unless we have already found Him, and we cannot find Him unless He has first found us. We cannot begin to seek Him without a special gift of His grace; yet if we wait for grace to move us before beginning to seek Him, we will probably never begin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Net used to be 50 percent men and 50 percent men pretending to be women, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41418]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Net used to be 50 percent men and 50 percent men pretending to be women,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One thing we tell our client countries is to have clear institutional arrangements in place for having rapid response and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41510]]></link><description><![CDATA[One thing we tell our client countries is to have clear institutional arrangements in place for having rapid response and effective coordination,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had an opportunity and it just didn't happen.
