When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context -- a chair in a room, a room ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9552]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context -- a chair in a room, a room in a house, a house in an environment, an environment in a city plan. - "Time", July 2, 1956.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not as though we have something to announce, because we don't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32874]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not as though we have something to announce, because we don't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We issued gorged with knowledge, and I spoke: "Why, Sirs, they do all this as well as we."  "They ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23012]]></link><description><![CDATA[We issued gorged with knowledge, and I spoke: "Why, Sirs, they do all this as well as we."  "They hunt old trails" said Cyril, "very well;   But when did woman ever yet invent?"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Failures are divided into two classes--those who thought and never did, and those who did and never thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Failures are divided into two classes--those who thought and never did, and those who did and never thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality. -Nikos Kazantzakis. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6084]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality. -Nikos Kazantzakis.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is what we were born with.

He only seemed to inhabit a material body, and from the Greek word dokein ["to seem"], people who held this theory were known as Docetists. But if Christ's incarnation was unreal, His death and resurrection were also unreal; and the whole gospel message was thus evacuated of its truth and power: one unhappy legacy of this short-lived phase of Christian heresy remains to bedevil Christian witness to Muslims up to the present day. For when the Koran says of Jesus that "they did not kill Him, nor did they crucify Him, but they thought they did", we may infer that Muhammad was indebted for this idea to a Christian source tainted with Docetism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is the objectification of feeling and the subjectification of nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3197]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is the objectification of feeling and the subjectification of nature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3197</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Skins may differ, but affection Dwells in white and black the same. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48934]]></link><description><![CDATA[Skins may differ, but affection Dwells in white and black the same.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[English attitudes to the respective forms of the game offer a clue as to why England continue to fare so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42552]]></link><description><![CDATA[English attitudes to the respective forms of the game offer a clue as to why England continue to fare so badly at One-day cricket.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12240]]></link><description><![CDATA[Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever. -Isak Dinesen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the hornet hangs in the holly hock, And the brown bee drones i' the rose,  And the west ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19612]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the hornet hangs in the holly hock, And the brown bee drones i' the rose,  And the west is a red-streaked four-o'clock,   And summer is near its close--    It's--Oh, for the gate, and the locust lane;     And dusk, and dew, and home again!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nation of monkeys with the throat of parrots. [Fr., Une natione de singes a larynx de parroquets.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16623]]></link><description><![CDATA[A nation of monkeys with the throat of parrots. [Fr., Une natione de singes a larynx de parroquets.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Their leadership was much better than ours.
