Just as the degree to which, in daily life, I feel the emotion of fear has very little to do with my rational judgment of the danger. I'd sooner have really nasty seas when I'm in an open boat than look down in perfect (actual) safety from the edge of a cliff. Similarly, I have confessed ghastly uncharities with less reluctance than small unmentionables -- or those sins which happen to be ungentlemanly as well as unchristian. Our emotional reactions to our own behaviour are of limited ethical significance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law of nature is the strictest expression of necessity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43827]]></link><description><![CDATA[The law of nature is the strictest expression of necessity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes only one other person to say it's so—one other point ofreality—to make something real. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21836]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes only one other person to say it's so—one other point ofreality—to make something real.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fewer the words, the better the prayer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4892]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fewer the words, the better the prayer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As high as Heaven, as deep as Hell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48517]]></link><description><![CDATA[As high as Heaven, as deep as Hell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The opposite of love is not hate.

With them he trapped a Stork that had fractured his leg in the net and was earnestly beseeching the Farmer to spare his life. Pray save me, Master, he said, and let me go free this once. My broken limb should excite your pity. Besides, I am no Crane, I am a Stork, a bird of excellent character; and see how I love and slave for my father and mother. Look too, at my feathers-- they are not the least like those of a Crane.  The Farmer laughed aloud and said, It may be all as you say, I only know this: I have taken you with these robbers, the Cranes, and you must die in their company. Birds of a feather flock together.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can debate anything they want, even terrorists who misrepresent our faith, but the Prophet Muhammad is off limits.

Doc Childre, The How To Book of Teen Self Discovery When I start appreciating, I look at it like business. I start by appreciating life itself. After all, life is really a gift. It might not always seem like that's true, but it is. If nothing else, it's a gift of discovery. So I appreciate that! Doc Childre and Sara Paddision, HeartMath Discovery Program What you put out comes back. The more you sincerely appreciate life from the heart, the more the magnetic energy of appreciation attracts fulfilling life experiences to you, both personally and professionally. Learning how to appreciate more consistently offers many benefits and applications. Appreciation is an easy heart frequency to activate and it can help shift your perspectives quickly. Learning how to appreciate both pleasant and even seemingly unpleasant experiences is a key to increased fulfillment. Mother Teresa -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfection is the child of time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64826]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perfection is the child of time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35018]]></link><description><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really warranted,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The window to the world can be covered by a newspaper. - Unkempt Thoughts, 1962. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27728]]></link><description><![CDATA[The window to the world can be covered by a newspaper. - Unkempt Thoughts, 1962.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10908]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Would the cook were o' my mind!

Your first duty is to begin by prayer. Entreat the Lord to grant you, of His great mercy, the true understanding of His Word. There is no other interpreter of the Word of God than the Author of this Word, as He Himself has said, "They shall be all taught of God" (John 6:45). Hope for nothing from your own labors, from your own understanding: trust solely in God, and in the influence of His Spirit.
