Love is sufficient of itself; it pleases by itself and on its own account. Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit. It is its own fruit, its own enjoyment. I love because I love; I love that I may love. Love is a great thing provided it recurs to its beginning, returns to its origin, and draws always from that Fountain which is perpetually in flood. Of all the feelings and affections of the soul, love is the only one by which the creature, though not on equal terms, is able to respond to the Creator and to repay what it has received from Him. For when God loves us He desires nothing but to be loved. He loves for no other reason, indeed, than that He may be loved, knowing that by their love itself those who love Him are blessed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of breath to no possible purpose; in attempting everything, doing nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50843]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of breath to no possible purpose; in attempting everything, doing nothing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we work upon marble it will perish.

If we work upon brass time will efface it. If we rear temples they will crumble to dust. But if we work upon men's immortal minds, if we imbue them with high principles, with the just fear of God and love of their fellow men, we engrave on those tablets something which no time can efface, and which will brighten and brighten to all eternity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The media's power is frail.

To wipe out their past sins and, at all costs, to give them a fresh start, smoothing every difficulty and offering every miraculous help? But He has done so, on Calvary. To forgive them? They will not be forgiven. To leave them alone? Alas, I am afraid that that is what He does.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
