But it is rather the giving up of self into the hands of God, without stint and without reserve, and letting Him set the work. It is the recognition of the fact that God has many kinds of work to be done, and that the best paid are not always the most honourable. To enter or exercise the ministry with a view to preferment is like marrying for money and not for love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens into ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12938]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens into that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was a conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12971]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The soul's impurity consists in bad judgments, and purification consists in producing in it right judgments, and the pure soul ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1275]]></link><description><![CDATA[The soul's impurity consists in bad judgments, and purification consists in producing in it right judgments, and the pure soul is one which has right judgments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extrahuman architecture and furious rhythm.

These were people who were putting up no resistance, many with no weapons, leaving in cars, trucks, carts, and on foot. The American armed forces bombed one endof the main highway from Kuwait City to Basra, sealing it off andthen bombed the other end of the highway, sealing it off. Theypositioned mechanized artillery units on the hill overlooking thearea and then, both from the air and the land, massacred every livingthing on the road. Fighter bombers, helicopter gunships, and armoredbattalions poured merciless firepower on those trapped in the trafficjams, backed up as much as 20 miles. One U.S. pilot reportedlysaid, It was like shooting fish in a barrel. That fateful stretchof road has since been dubbed the Highway of Death.In a report submitted to the Commission of Inquiry for theInternational War Crimes Tribunal, charges are made that those killedwere Palestinian and Kuwaiti civilians trying to escape the siege ofKuwait City and the return of Kuwaiti armed forces. The report claimsthat no attempt was made by U.S. military command to distinguishbetween military personnel and civilians.*****The Guardian newspaper in the UK has written of the 9000Iraqis killed by the RAF bombs in 1920, one of the 6 timesBritish oil interests have violated the people of Iraq in thelast 86 years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[VMS is a text-only adventure game.
