And, taking your life as a whole, with all your innumerable choices, all your life long you are slowly turning this central thing either into a Heaven creature or into a hellish creature -- either into a creature that is in harmony with God, and with other creatures, and with itself, or else into one that is in a state of war and hatred with God, and with its fellow creatures and with itself. To be the one kind of creature is Heaven: that is, it is joy, and peace, and knowledge, and power. To be the other means madness, horror, idiocy, rage, impotence, and eternal loneliness. Each of us at each moment is progressing to the one state or the other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To a child all weather is cold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49990]]></link><description><![CDATA[To a child all weather is cold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mere index hunter, who held the eel of science by the tail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54834]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mere index hunter, who held the eel of science by the tail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reality is the leading cause of stress for those in touch with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53071]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reality is the leading cause of stress for those in touch with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Flag of the free heart's hope and home! By angel hands to valour given,  Thy stars have lit the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16132]]></link><description><![CDATA[Flag of the free heart's hope and home! By angel hands to valour given,  Thy stars have lit the welkin dome;   And all thy hues were born in heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Knight without fear and without reproach. [Fr., Chevalier sans peur et sans reproche.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Knight without fear and without reproach. [Fr., Chevalier sans peur et sans reproche.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For I am that way going to temptation, Where prayers cross. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58907]]></link><description><![CDATA[For I am that way going to temptation, Where prayers cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In politics it is necessary either to betray one's country of the electorate.

Money can't buy a clear conscience—square dealing is the price tag. Money can't buy the glow of good health—right living is the secret.

Money can't buy sunsets, songs of wild birds and the music of the wind in the trees—these are as free as the air we breath. Money can't buy inward peace—peace is the result of a constructive philosophy in life. Money can't buy a good character—good character is achieved through decent habits of private living and wholesome dealings in our open contacts with our fellow men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But now we have bought the film back and it will be shown in Paris in the original version for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32687]]></link><description><![CDATA[But now we have bought the film back and it will be shown in Paris in the original version for the first time in the next couple of months.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hope that no American . . . will waste his franchise and throw away his vote by voting either ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61008]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hope that no American . . . will waste his franchise and throw away his vote by voting either for me or against me solely on account of my religious affiliation.
