Our affections are not ours to be blighted and crucified; they are ours to be deepened and purified. The rich opportunities of life are not held out to us only to be snatched away by an invisible hand patiently waiting for the hour when the cup is sweetest; they are given to us that we may grow, alike through their rise or their withdrawal. They are real, they are sweet, and they are worthy of our longing for them; we gain nothing by calling them dross, or the world an illusion, or ourselves the victims of deception, or by exalting renunciation as the highest virtue. When these opportunities are denied us, it is a real, not an imaginary, loss which we sustain; and our part is not that of bare renunciation, of simple surrender; our part is to recognize the loss, to bear the pain, and to find a deeper and richer life in doing the will of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6152]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6152</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On the destination list of Washington, ... you'll have the MCI Center area, Georgetown and, now, boom, the South Capitol ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29250]]></link><description><![CDATA[On the destination list of Washington, ... you'll have the MCI Center area, Georgetown and, now, boom, the South Capitol Street ballpark area.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At this point, the compute grid is well understood.

All your insight only leads you to the knowledge that it is not in yourselves that you will discover the true and the good. The philosophers promised them to you, and have not been able to keep their promises... Your principal maladies are pride, which cuts you off from God, and sensuality, which binds you to the earth; and they have done nothing but foster at least one of these maladies. If they have given you God for your object, it has only been to pander to your pride; they have made you think that you were like Him and resembled Him by your nature. And those who have grasped the vanity of such a pretension have cast you down into the other abyss by making you believe that your nature was like that of the beasts of the field, and have led you to seek your good in lust, which is the lot of animals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This legislation gives prosecutors and law enforcement tools they need to keep sexual predators off the streets and to hold ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39778]]></link><description><![CDATA[This legislation gives prosecutors and law enforcement tools they need to keep sexual predators off the streets and to hold our worst child abusers fully accountable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You will stir up the hornets. [Lat., Irritabis crabones.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9969]]></link><description><![CDATA[You will stir up the hornets. [Lat., Irritabis crabones.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The church must be the critic and guide of the state, and never its tool. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53596]]></link><description><![CDATA[The church must be the critic and guide of the state, and never its tool.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Acheson's Rule of Bureaucracy: A memorandum is written not to inform the reader but to protect the writer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24346]]></link><description><![CDATA[Acheson's Rule of Bureaucracy: A memorandum is written not to inform the reader but to protect the writer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is appallingly obvious our technology has exceeded our humanity ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58815]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is appallingly obvious our technology has exceeded our humanity]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They used to throw this stuff away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40629]]></link><description><![CDATA[They used to throw this stuff away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Does not the very word 'creative' mean to build, to initiate, to give out, to act - rather than to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30080]]></link><description><![CDATA[Does not the very word 'creative' mean to build, to initiate, to give out, to act - rather than to be acted upon, to be subjective?
