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[America is not only big and rich, it is mysterious; and its capacity for the humorous or ironical concealment of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22149]]></link><description><![CDATA[America is not only big and rich, it is mysterious; and its capacity for the humorous or ironical concealment of its interests matches that of the legendary inscrutable Chinese. - The Lonely Crowd.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing so absurd or ridiculous that has not at some time been said by some philosopher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/221]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing so absurd or ridiculous that has not at some time been said by some philosopher.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You praise, in three hundred verses, Sabellus, the baths of Ponticus, who gives such excellent dinners.

He always wanted something for my brother and myself, some kind of business. He'd asked the owners of this course to call him if it ever came up for sale, and one day, they called. I had a scholarship offer to Ohio State and my dad said, 'Son, what do you want to do, cut grass or go to school?' I said, what do you want me to do, Dad? He said, 'Well, I can't afford any help.' I said, 'No problem, Dad, I'll help you cut grass.'
