What looks like a giving hand is often a holding on for dear life. Take away our holy duties and you leave our lives puny and meaningless. There is no doubt that in exchanging a self-centered for a selfless life we gain enormously in self-esteem. The vanity of the selfless, even those who practice utmost humility, is boundless.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're all professionals in here and everyone can give a little more and be a little better.

As a defenseman, I look at scoring negatively, but it works both ways. I wonder about the expectations though. I played in Sweden, without a red line, and I don't think the game was faster. On the other hand, I wasn't playing with the best players in the world, as in the NHL. We'll adjust to the new icing rules and in a few years we won't remember what it was like before. There's always calls for new rules, but I just hope the game doesn't change too drastically.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When they started understanding things kind of clicked together, it showed.

We must affirm both the mystery and God. The paradox remained, but now, at least, Job knew that it belonged there -- that it is built into the moral and physical orders, and into the very nature of God as He has permitted us humans to perceive Him. In a world where the universal principle is cause/effect, the book of Job reminds us that the principle is a reflection of the mysterious, self-revealing God. It is subsumed under Him, however, and He cannot be subsumed under it. The God-speeches remind us that a Person, not a principle, is Lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Written laws are like spider's webs; they will catch, it is true, the weak and the poor, but would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29162]]></link><description><![CDATA[Written laws are like spider's webs; they will catch, it is true, the weak and the poor, but would be torn in pieces by the rich and powerful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She's a very conservative person and has exceedingly good judgment.

They cannot believe that there is verily an unseen, mysterious power, till the world and all that is in it has vanished in the smoke of despair; till cause and effect are nothing to the intellect, and possible glories have faded from the imagination. Then, deprived of all that made life pleasant or hopeful, the immortal essence, lonely and wretched and unable to cease, looks up with its now unfettered and wakened instinct to the source of its own life -- to the possible God who, notwithstanding all the improbabilities of His existence, may yet perhaps be, and may yet perhaps hear His wretched creature that calls. In this loneliness of despair, life must find The Life: for joy is gone, and life is all that is left; it is compelled to seek its source, its root, its eternal life. This alone remains a possible thing. Strange condition of despair into which the Spirit of God drives a man -- a condition in which the Best alone is the Possible!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A woman doesn't need a perfect man. she just needs a special guy who can accept her the way she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62878]]></link><description><![CDATA[A woman doesn't need a perfect man. she just needs a special guy who can accept her the way she is and make her feel special.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What want these outlaws conquerors should have But History's purchased page to call them great? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19315]]></link><description><![CDATA[What want these outlaws conquerors should have But History's purchased page to call them great?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe, but in proportion to their readiness to doubt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53700]]></link><description><![CDATA[For men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe, but in proportion to their readiness to doubt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the first in a long time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32801]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the first in a long time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When science finally locates the center of the universe, some people will be surprised to learn they're not it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28081]]></link><description><![CDATA[When science finally locates the center of the universe, some people will be surprised to learn they're not it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They (corporations) cannot commit treason, nor be outlawed, nor excommunicated, for they have no souls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5025]]></link><description><![CDATA[They (corporations) cannot commit treason, nor be outlawed, nor excommunicated, for they have no souls.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21045]]></link><description><![CDATA[Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's important to give it all you have while you have the chance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17494]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's important to give it all you have while you have the chance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even when poetry has a meaning, as it usually has, it may be inadvisable to draw it out...
