But when we analyze it, it turns into a complex tangle of paradoxes. We become ourselves by dying to ourselves. We gain only what we give up, and if we give up everything we gain everything. We cannot find ourselves within ourselves, but only in others; yet at the same time, before we can go out to others we must first find ourselves. We must forget ourselves in order to become truly conscious of who we are. The best way to love ourselves is to love others; yet we cannot love others unless we love ourselves, since it is written, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." But if we love ourselves in the wrong way, we become incapable of loving anybody else. And indeed when we love ourselves wrongly, we hate ourselves; if we hate ourselves we cannot help hating others. Yet there is a sense in which we must hate others and leave them in order to find God... As for this finding of God, we cannot even look for Him unless we have already found Him, and we cannot find Him unless He has first found us. We cannot begin to seek Him without a special gift of His grace; yet if we wait for grace to move us before beginning to seek Him, we will probably never begin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57552]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I regard you with an indifference closely bordering on aversion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64878]]></link><description><![CDATA[I regard you with an indifference closely bordering on aversion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2291]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever has Christ in his heart, so that no earthly or temporal things -- not even those that are legitimate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8456]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever has Christ in his heart, so that no earthly or temporal things -- not even those that are legitimate and allowed -- are preferred to Him, has Christ as a foundation.
