Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough... It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again," to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again," to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike: it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are getting dozens of calls a day asking for details about the Medicare prescription-drug coverage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38701]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are getting dozens of calls a day asking for details about the Medicare prescription-drug coverage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is unknown whether the patients had clearly expressed their intentions (for euthanasia), and I find it particularly problematic.

It has been the largest single factor in combating, on a world-wide scale, such ancient foes of man as war, famine, and the exploitation of one race by another. More than any other religion, it has made for the dignity of human personality. This it has done by a power inherent within it of lifting lives from selfishness, spiritual mediocrity, and moral defeat and disintegration, to unselfish achievement and contagious moral and spiritual power and by the high value which it set upon every human soul through the possibilities which it held out of endless growth in fellowship with the eternal God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He takes the greatest ornament from friendship, who takes modesty from it. [Lat., Maximum ornamentum amicitiae tollit, qui ex ea ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42902]]></link><description><![CDATA[He takes the greatest ornament from friendship, who takes modesty from it. [Lat., Maximum ornamentum amicitiae tollit, qui ex ea tollit verecudiam.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On you, my lord, with anxious fear I wait, And from your judgment must expect my fate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23524]]></link><description><![CDATA[On you, my lord, with anxious fear I wait, And from your judgment must expect my fate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/912]]></link><description><![CDATA[The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in angels, so it's simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36768]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in angels, so it's simple.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no fear of God before their eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17685]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no fear of God before their eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17685</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most overlooked advantage to owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against whacking them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24266]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most overlooked advantage to owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against whacking them around a little.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray, and let God worry ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pray, and let God worry]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are injured and hurt emotionally,Not so much by other peopleor what they say and don't say,But by our own ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22446]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are injured and hurt emotionally,Not so much by other peopleor what they say and don't say,But by our own attitudeand our own response.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief she is beautiful. •Sophia Loren  Nothing's beautiful from every point ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3855]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief she is beautiful. •Sophia Loren  Nothing's beautiful from every point of view. •Horace   Beauty is the first present nature gives to women and the first it takes away. •George Brossin Méré   ...It's a sort of bloom on a woman. If you have it you don't need to have anything else; and if you don't have it, it doesn't much matter what else you have. •James Matthew Barrie   In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty. •Christopher Morley   Beauty is power; a smile is its sword. •Charles Reade   Beauty is only skin deep, but it's a valuable asset if you're poor or haven't any sense. •Kin Hubbard   Beauty is not caused.

A mother's opinions about her children's beauty, intelligence, goodness, et cetera ad nauseam, keep her from drowning them at birth. •Lazarus Long  Honesty coupled to beauty is to have honey a sauce to sugar. •Shakespeare  It is good that the young are beautiful; it is the only advantage they have. •The Duchess of Windsor  Love that has nothing but beauty to keep it in good health is short lived, and apt to have ague fits. •Erasmus               The beautiful are never desolate,               But someone always loves them. •Bailey   Beauty, n: the power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband. •Ambrose Bierce   Everything beautiful has its moment and then passes away. •Luis Cernuda   Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait. •Ralph Waldo Emerson   Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do.

That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas? •Jean Kerr  The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt. •Anonymous  What ever beauty may be, it has for its basis order, and for its essence unity. •Father Andre   Personal beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of reference. •Aristotle   I'm not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation. •Tyra Banks  Exuberance is beauty. •William Blake   Even with all my wrinkles!
