But there was always some obstacle in the way. Something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. -Fr. Alfred D'Souza.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For myself I hold no preferences among flowers, so long as they are wild, free, spontaneous.

By Love alone He is great and glorious. By Love alone He liveth and feeleth in other persons. By Love alone He enjoyeth all the creatures, by Love alone He is pleasing to Himself, by Love alone He is rich and blessed. The Soul is shrivelled up and buried in a grave that does not love. But that which does love wisely and truly is the joy and end of all the world, the King of Heaven, and the Friend of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a test.

Yet people attempt to evade His statement. Generally speaking, these are the very people who are the quickest in laying the blame upon God for all the sorrow and sin in the world. They argue that He could prevent it. They excuse their own do-nothing attitude by making of evil's apparent predominance a ground for doubt of His loving kindness. It never seems to occur to them to look for the cause in mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There should be no strife with the vanquished or the dead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51830]]></link><description><![CDATA[There should be no strife with the vanquished or the dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And on the flip side, they know us pretty well.

Theoretically, man is said to be nothing but an animal with a highly developed cerebrum. At the same time, it is believed of this man that he is capable by science and technical devices of achieving whatever he wants. The deification which might have been thought to be finally overcome, returns as it were from behind, in the form of a deification of technical creativity to which not much less than omnipotence is ascribed. After mankind has done away with the pseudo-religion of race and blood, it is faced with the even greater danger of a technocratical pseudo-religion. There is no room for human personality, freedom and justice in either of these new religions of divine man. But the most dangerous of all must be the one which makes man at the same time nothing and God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How much does great prosperity overspread the mind with darkness. [Lat., Quantum caliginis mentibus nostris objicit magna felicitas!] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48493]]></link><description><![CDATA[How much does great prosperity overspread the mind with darkness. [Lat., Quantum caliginis mentibus nostris objicit magna felicitas!]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just need enough to tide me over until I need more. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2079]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just need enough to tide me over until I need more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19429]]></link><description><![CDATA[We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Laughter is the tonic, the relief, the surcease for pain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24222]]></link><description><![CDATA[Laughter is the tonic, the relief, the surcease for pain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19499]]></link><description><![CDATA[The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Huzzaed out of my seven senses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55097]]></link><description><![CDATA[Huzzaed out of my seven senses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learning isn't a means to an end; it is an end in itself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Learning isn't a means to an end; it is an end in itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have had my labor for my travail; ill-thought-on of her, and ill-thought-on of you; gone between and between, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62145]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have had my labor for my travail; ill-thought-on of her, and ill-thought-on of you; gone between and between, but small thanks for my labor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flame-thrower. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27853]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flame-thrower.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The market is euphoric.
