We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to be safe than sorry. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54643]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to be safe than sorry.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With everything we look at, there is something about gambling that relates to America.

Now the reason of it is this: it is because religion lives only in their head, but something else has possession of their heart; and therefore they continue from year to year mere admirers and praisers of piety, without ever coming up to the reality and perfection of its precepts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He ne'er is crowned with immortality Who fears to follow where airy voices lead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20616]]></link><description><![CDATA[He ne'er is crowned with immortality Who fears to follow where airy voices lead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Situations in low-rated schools like Jasper are very frustrating, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29424]]></link><description><![CDATA[Situations in low-rated schools like Jasper are very frustrating,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fire in each eye, and papers in each hand, They rave, recite, and madden round the land. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45245]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fire in each eye, and papers in each hand, They rave, recite, and madden round the land.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treasure the love you receive above all.
