He loved it so much he made a woman out of dirt and married her. But when he kissed her, she disintegrated. Later, at the funeral, when the preacher said, "Dust to dust," some people laughed, and the cowboy shot them.

The "greater love than this" of which our Lord speaks, though He does not command it, is to give oneself for one's friends. And when one does this, or is ready to do this, prayer even for "us" seems too selfish -- and it is unnecessary, for we then possess all that God Himself can give us. The easy renunciation of self for the Beloved becomes the very breath of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the fragrant lack of practicality that makes high-heeled shoes so fascinating: in terms of static mechanics they induce ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21046]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the fragrant lack of practicality that makes high-heeled shoes so fascinating: in terms of static mechanics they induce a sort of insecurity which some find titillating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one worth possessing can be quite possessed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25984]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one worth possessing can be quite possessed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35932]]></link><description><![CDATA[Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the treatment for the social disease of poverty, you will have both poverty and child labor to the end of time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66541]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people talk of morality, and some of religion, but give me a little snug property. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people talk of morality, and some of religion, but give me a little snug property.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is going to be an interesting budget year.

I have fought all my life; I fight now, and will do so until the end of my days. Even although I now happen to be tried by one, whose opinion I hold in high esteem, I detest most violently the set-up that surrounds me here. It makes me feel that I am a Black man in a White man's court.

But this distinction is only a very small part of the difference, and as such is in itself incorrect. Both of these words may convey intense emotion or may be relatively weak in their meanings. These words do not indicate degree of love, but kinds of love. Agapao refers to love which arises from a keen sense of the value and worth in the object of our love, and phileo describes the emotional attachment which results from intimate and prolonged association. That is why in the Scriptures we are never commanded to "love" with the word phileo. Even when husbands and wives are instructed to love one another, the word agapao is used, for it is impossible to command that kind of love which can arise only from intimate association. On the other hand, the saints are admonished to appreciate profoundly the worth and value in others, and agapao is used to convey this meaning. All Christians are not necessarily to have sentimental attachments for one another (phileo). This would be impossible, for our circle of intimate friends is limited by the nature of our lives. But we can all be commanded to appreciate intensely the worth of others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6474</guid></item></channel></rss>
