Just as a fish is adapted to life in the sea. This view of our situation fills us with a certain awed and humble gladness. It delivers us from all niggling fuss about ourselves, prevents us from feeling self-important about our own little spiritual adventures; and yet makes them worth while as part of one great spiritual adventure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He has paid dear, very dear, for his whistle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62328]]></link><description><![CDATA[He has paid dear, very dear, for his whistle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Benjamin Hardlysee decided to point it out to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Benjamin Hardlysee decided to point it out to me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on Sunday, cash me out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53747]]></link><description><![CDATA[When lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on Sunday, cash me out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those talents which God has bestowed upon us are not our own goods but the free gifts of God; and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those talents which God has bestowed upon us are not our own goods but the free gifts of God; and any persons who become proud of them show their ungratefulness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The elevator to success is out of order.
