Secretly we are ourselves the masters in this relationship. We are not concerned with God, but with our own requirements, to which God must adjust Himself.

In "believing" on Him, we justify, enjoy, and adore ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any additional rate increases would need to be precipitated by higher inflation or above-trend growth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29105]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any additional rate increases would need to be precipitated by higher inflation or above-trend growth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And binding nature fast in fate, Left free the human will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61603]]></link><description><![CDATA[And binding nature fast in fate, Left free the human will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The alleged power to charm down insanity, or ferocity in beasts, is a power behind the eye. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21012]]></link><description><![CDATA[The alleged power to charm down insanity, or ferocity in beasts, is a power behind the eye.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whither away, Bluebird, Whither away?  The blast is chill, yet in the upper sky   Thou still canst ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4367]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whither away, Bluebird, Whither away?  The blast is chill, yet in the upper sky   Thou still canst find the color of thy wing,    The hue of May.     Warbler, why speed, thy southern flight? ah, why,      Thou, too, whose song first told us of the Spring?       Whither away?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every vice is only an exaggeration of a necessary and virtuous function. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60531]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every vice is only an exaggeration of a necessary and virtuous function.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An error is the more dangerous the more truth it contains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9474]]></link><description><![CDATA[An error is the more dangerous the more truth it contains.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think there's been an Angela Merkel -factor, as well as something more subtle happening. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33156]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think there's been an Angela Merkel -factor, as well as something more subtle happening.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hard Unkindness' alter'd eye, That mocks the tear if forced to flow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60264]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hard Unkindness' alter'd eye, That mocks the tear if forced to flow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Optimist: a proponent of the doctrine that black is white. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45212]]></link><description><![CDATA[Optimist: a proponent of the doctrine that black is white.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[During that period we greatly improved the financial health of the company by selling low-return businesses, reducing debt, stabilizing AOL, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34290]]></link><description><![CDATA[During that period we greatly improved the financial health of the company by selling low-return businesses, reducing debt, stabilizing AOL, and made significant progress in resolving the company's legal challenges.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17995]]></link><description><![CDATA[The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their governments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two things which cannot be attacked in front: ignorance and narrow-mindedness.
