And unexpressed feelings comeforth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are thereincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment anddisillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rageor anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are otherembodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing,not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects thequality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like I've experienced every part of my game throughout this first week and I've liked the levels I've ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29174]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like I've experienced every part of my game throughout this first week and I've liked the levels I've hit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29174</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How far that little candle throws its beams; So shines a good deed in a naughty world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51420]]></link><description><![CDATA[How far that little candle throws its beams; So shines a good deed in a naughty world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absence blots people out.

Thus they would explain away the significance of the popular belief that our Lord wrought signs and wonders. But in so doing they set themselves a worse problem than they evade. If miracles were so very common, it would be as easy to believe that Jesus wrought them as that He worked at His father's bench, but also it would be as inconclusive.  And how then are we to explain the astonishment which all the evangelists so constantly record? On any conceivable theory, these writers shared the beliefs of that age, and so did the readers who accepted their assurance that all were amazed, and that His report "went out straightway everywhere into all the region of Galilee." These are emphatic words, and both the author and his readers must have considered a miracle to be more surprising than modern critics believe they did. Yet we do not read of any one was converted by this miracle. All were amazed, but wonder is not self-surrender. They were content to let their excitement die out -- as every violent emotion must -- without any change of life, any permanent devotion to the new Teacher and His doctrine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if i have said it, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65536]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if i have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I heard him moaning and groaning.
