Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason. For me death is the maximum of epicness and death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66764]]></link><description><![CDATA[The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Action speaks louder than words. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62892]]></link><description><![CDATA[Action speaks louder than words.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee and just as hard to sleep after. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56643]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee and just as hard to sleep after.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being No. 1, we were definitely content with that.

Many preachers have made use of this fact to point out helpful spiritual implications; and yet, by New Testament times, the word carried no such denotation as "called out." It was simply the word for "assembly" or "congregation." It so happened that in the Greek city-states an assembly of the citizenry resulted from the people being called out of their city and summoned from their farms to participate in such gatherings. Even though the etymology of the word remains, its real meaning is just "assembly," and a Greek-speaking person of New Testament times would be no more inclined to understand ekklesia in its original etymological value of "called out" than we today would recognize "God be with you" in "good-by," which, as we may learn from the dictionary, was derived from the longer phrase.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We use all fresh, never frozen ingredients.

Such effort is likely to be arduous and painful in proportion to the height of the ideal, desperate in proportion to the sensitiveness of the conscience. A morbid scrupulousness besets the morally serious soul. It is anxious and troubled, afraid of evil, haunted by the memory of failure. The best of the Pharisees tended in this direction, and no less the best of the Stoics. And so little has Christianity been understood that the popular idea of a serious Christian is modeled upon the same type of character.
