The man whose prayer is so pure that he never asks God for anything does not know who God is, and does not know who he is himself: for he does not know his own need of God. All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nought so vile, that on the earth doth live, But to the earth some special good cloth give. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51476]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nought so vile, that on the earth doth live, But to the earth some special good cloth give.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The human mind ever longs for occupation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48879]]></link><description><![CDATA[The human mind ever longs for occupation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why is it that people rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral?

Compared to this stupendous mobilization of materials, of wealth, of human intellect, of human labor for the single goal of domination, all other recent human achievements pale to almost trivial significance. Our art, science, medicine, literature, music and "charitable" acts seem like mere droppings from a table on which gory feasts on the spoils of conquest have engaged the attention of a system whose appetite for rule is utterly unrestrained.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cleverness is serviceable for everything, sufficient for nothing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8868]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cleverness is serviceable for everything, sufficient for nothing]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes your enemy and your friend, working together, to hurt you to the heart: the one to slander you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54626]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes your enemy and your friend, working together, to hurt you to the heart: the one to slander you and the other to get the news to you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a leap of faith.
