The American standard of living has risen to unprecedented heights, although a large portion of the world exists on a sub-human level. Philanthropy, as we practice it, is not enough --- although the word philanthropy actually means brotherhood. Our stewardship of God's goods requires that we administer in God's name -- that is, with full awareness that the world is His and that His love is directed toward us no more fully than toward every man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A prince never lacks legitimate reasons to break his promise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48400]]></link><description><![CDATA[A prince never lacks legitimate reasons to break his promise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A right without an attendant responsibility is as unreal as a sheet of paper which has only one side. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47248]]></link><description><![CDATA[A right without an attendant responsibility is as unreal as a sheet of paper which has only one side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's easy to be independent when you've got money.

That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe. You are no longer working against the grain of the universe; you're working with it... You have been forgiven by God and now you can forgive yourself. All self hate, self-despising, self-rejection, drop away, and you accept yourself in God, respect yourself, and love yourself... You cease to move into yourself, away from others. You give up your antagonism. You begin to move toward others in love. God moved toward you in gracious, outgoing love, and you move toward others in that same outgoing love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that education is all about being excited about something.
