The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. We survive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want it any other way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May all your labors be in vein. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59400]]></link><description><![CDATA[May all your labors be in vein.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some of the grounds will seem bare.

Now, once again may I ask you the question, Is the Church cruel when she points this out, and demands that men should see it and take account of it in all the arrangements of this life? Surely the cruelty lies with those who talk glibly about the brotherhood of man, and superficially about peace, and romantically about marriage, as though the disturbances in Church and state and family were introduced into human life by a few evil-minded men. This is the real cruelty. How will you face up later to your married life, to your administration of affairs, to your life in the Church, in fact to any real part of your lives, if you are taught to think that your neighbour will or ought to agree with you in all points, will accept your solutions of his problems, will in fact be a reflection of your image? Once we get this stuff and nonsense into our heads, we shall never be able to live with anyone or with any group of men. We shall sulk when we are crossed, or run away from the Other -- for Other they are. We shall certainly remove ourselves from the Church when we find it full of friction and yet proclaiming the love of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's absolutely outrageous.

One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When she would write a song, she would call me and say, 'Do you want to hear something?
