He said he was about to die and wanted to tell someone about the treasure. I said, "Okay, as long as it's not a long story. Some of us have a plane to catch, you know." He stared telling hes story, about the treasure and his life and all, and I thought: "This story isn't too long." But then, he kept going, and I started thinking, "Uh-oh, this story is getting long." But then the story was over, and I said to myself: "You know, that story wasn't too long after all." I forget what the story was about, but there was a good movie on the plane.

The old prophets, when they would describe things emphatically, did not only draw parables from things which offered themselves, as from the rent of a garment, ... from the vessels of a potter, ... but also, when such objects were wanting, they supplied them by their own actions, as by rending a garment, ... by shooting, ... etc. By such types the prophets loved to speak. And Christ, being endued with a nobler prophet spirit than the rest, excelled also in this kind of speaking, yet so as not to speak by His own actions -- [which would have been] less grave and decent -- but to turn into parables such things as offered themselves. On occasion of the harvest approaching, He admonishes His disciples once and again of the spiritual harvest. Seeing the lilies of the field, He admonishes His disciples about clothing. In allusion to the present season of fruits, He admonishes His disciples about knowing men by their fruits. In the time of the Passover, when trees put forth their leaves, He bids His disciples, "learn a parable from the fig-tree".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some have meat but cannot eat; Some could eat but have no meat;  We have meat and can all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59410]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some have meat but cannot eat; Some could eat but have no meat;  We have meat and can all eat;   Blest, therefore, be God for our meat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I imagine one of the reasons people cling to thier hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58386]]></link><description><![CDATA[I imagine one of the reasons people cling to thier hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain. -James Baldwin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58386</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Among the demands attributed to Lopez in the gossip pages: a dressing room fitted out with white orchids, white walls, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42490]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Among the demands attributed to Lopez in the gossip pages: a dressing room fitted out with white orchids, white walls, a white sofa and an endless stock of Evian-room-temperature only, thank you.
