I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God. All the beauty and truth which I had discovered had come to me as a reflection of his beauty, but I had kept my eyes fixed on the reflection and was always looking at myself. But God had brought me to the point at which I was compelled to turn away from the reflection, both of myself and of the world which could only mirror my own image. During that night the mirror had been broken, and I had felt abandoned because I could no longer gaze upon the image of my own reason and the finite world which it knew. God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ear tends to be lazy, craves the familiar, and is shocked by the unexpected: the eye, on the other ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4431]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ear tends to be lazy, craves the familiar, and is shocked by the unexpected: the eye, on the other hand, tends to be impatient, craves the novel and is bored by repetition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Th' embroider'd suit at least he deem'd his prey; That suit an unpaid tailor snatched away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58571]]></link><description><![CDATA[Th' embroider'd suit at least he deem'd his prey; That suit an unpaid tailor snatched away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O sweet September, they first breezes bring the dry leaf's rustle and the squirrel's laughter, the cool fresh air whence ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35618]]></link><description><![CDATA[O sweet September, they first breezes bring the dry leaf's rustle and the squirrel's laughter, the cool fresh air whence health and vigor spring and promise of exceeding joy hereafter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love's mysteries in souls do grow, But yet the body is his book. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4440]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love's mysteries in souls do grow, But yet the body is his book.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poets are soldiers that liberate words from the steadfast possession of definition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65072]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poets are soldiers that liberate words from the steadfast possession of definition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65072</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not Philip, but Phillip's gold, took the cities of Greece. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17780]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not Philip, but Phillip's gold, took the cities of Greece.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If all the bones of all the victims of the Catholic Church could be gathered together, a monument higher than ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5295]]></link><description><![CDATA[If all the bones of all the victims of the Catholic Church could be gathered together, a monument higher than all the pyramids would rise]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5295</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[This isn't just a legal compliance issue for us.

I've learned thatyou can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things:a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I've learned thatregardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they'regone from your life. I've learned that making a living is not the same thing asmaking a life. I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on bothhands; you need to be able to throw some things back. I've learned that wheneverI decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I'velearned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned thatevery day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, orjust a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what youdid, but people will never forget how you made them feel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that if ever I had to practice cannibalism, I might manage if there were enough tarragon around. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5218]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe that if ever I had to practice cannibalism, I might manage if there were enough tarragon around.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This sets the stage for some very, very interesting hearings next week. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39732]]></link><description><![CDATA[This sets the stage for some very, very interesting hearings next week.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And it's kind of hard to prioritize things when you're not sure you've got enough money to run your everyday ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39281]]></link><description><![CDATA[And it's kind of hard to prioritize things when you're not sure you've got enough money to run your everyday things.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20992]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern of inn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In five years, I can see the emergence of a Chinese software company. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40615]]></link><description><![CDATA[In five years, I can see the emergence of a Chinese software company.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Attitude is your acceptance of the natural laws, or your rejection of the natural laws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3449]]></link><description><![CDATA[Attitude is your acceptance of the natural laws, or your rejection of the natural laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Next to the wound , what women make best is the bandage ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61906]]></link><description><![CDATA[Next to the wound , what women make best is the bandage]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm fairly confident that if I died tomorrow, Don would find a way to preserve me until the season was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57564]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm fairly confident that if I died tomorrow, Don would find a way to preserve me until the season was over and he had time for a nice funeral. (on the career dedication of her husband, the Miami Dolphins' coach)]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The budget surplus is real, not imagined, and it means that the tax is no longer needed, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30201]]></link><description><![CDATA[The budget surplus is real, not imagined, and it means that the tax is no longer needed,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The power of a movement lies in the fact that it can indeed change the habits of people.
