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[We believe that the applause of silence is the only kind that counts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2933]]></link><description><![CDATA[We believe that the applause of silence is the only kind that counts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're all professionals in here and everyone can give a little more and be a little better.

And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than "politicians" think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ecclesiastes said that "all is vanity," Most modern preachers say the same, or show it  By their examples of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ecclesiastes said that "all is vanity," Most modern preachers say the same, or show it  By their examples of true Christianity:   In short, all know, or very short may know it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For my confirmation, I didn't get a watch and my first pair of long pants, like most Lutheran boys.
