We are surrounded and penetrated by great spiritual forces of which we hardly know anything. Yet the outward events of our life cannot be understood, except in their relation to that unseen and intensely living world, the Infinite Charity which penetrates and supports us, the God whom we resist and yet for whom we thirst; who is ever at work, transforming the self-centred desire of the natural creature into the wide spreading, outpouring love of the citizen of Heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7789</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65130]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behind every great fortune there is a crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behind every great fortune there is a crime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is sad not to love, but it is much sadder not to be able to love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65314]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is sad not to love, but it is much sadder not to be able to love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you hire people who are smarter than you are, you prove you aresmarter than they are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22082]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you hire people who are smarter than you are, you prove you aresmarter than they are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discipline is remembering what you want. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12398]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discipline is remembering what you want.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis not what man Does which exalts him, but what man Would do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11671]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis not what man Does which exalts him, but what man Would do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is like church.

There is no telling to what extremes of cruelty and ruthlessness a man will go when he is freed from the fears, hesitations, doubts and the vague stirrings of decency that go with individual judgement. When we lose our individual independence in the corporateness of a mass movement, we find a new freedom- freedom to hate, bully, lie, torture, murder and betray without shame and remorse. Herein undoubtedly lies part of the attractiveness of a mass movement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The horse that drawes after him his halter, is not altogether escaped. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49873]]></link><description><![CDATA[The horse that drawes after him his halter, is not altogether escaped.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49873</guid></item></channel></rss>
