Thou receivest over and above, that Thou mayest owe; and who hath aught that is not Thine? Thou payest debts, owing nothing; remittest debts, losing nothing. And that have I now said, my God, my life, my holy joy? or what saith any man when he speaks of Thee? Yet woe to him that speaketh not, since mute are even the most eloquent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8471</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you care about a person, it’s impossible to be logical about them anymore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you care about a person, it’s impossible to be logical about them anymore.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've been creating chances but haven't been finishing.

with the irresistible force of its grinding heel; but it is inspiring to consider an Almightiness that transforms the works of evil into the hand-maidens of righteousness and converts the sinner into the saint.

The gospel of love -- with its emphasis upon brotherhood, equality before God, the dignity of every human being, and man's social responsibility toward man -- does not satisfy the lack that he urgently feels.
