Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have and offer thanks for all the troubles we don't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have and offer thanks for all the troubles we don't have.

Every principle of selection, every separation connected with it that is not necessitated quite objectively by common work, local conditions, or family connections is of the greatest danger to a Christian community. When the way of intellectual or spiritual selection is taken, the human element always insinuates itself and robs the fellowship of its spiritual power and its effectiveness for the Church, and drives it into sectarianism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all exited by the love of praise, and the noblest are most influenced by glory. [Lat., Trahimur omnes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48002]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are all exited by the love of praise, and the noblest are most influenced by glory. [Lat., Trahimur omnes laudis studio, et optimus quisque maxime gloria ducitur.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important ingredient we put into any relationship is not whatwe say or what we do, but what we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21560]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important ingredient we put into any relationship is not whatwe say or what we do, but what we are.

Success and failure are unavoidably related in our minds with the state of things around us. Hence it is that people with a sense of fulfillment think it is a good world and would like to preserve it as it is, while the frustrated favor radical change. The tendency to look for all causes outside ourselves persists even when it is clear that our state of being is the product of personal qualities such as ability, character, appearance, health and so on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm just earning my minutes, I knew I had the capabilities to play here, and it was just a matter ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37597]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm just earning my minutes, I knew I had the capabilities to play here, and it was just a matter of going out and doing it.

That glorious form, that light insufferable,  And that far-beaming blaze majesty, Wherewith he wont at Heaven's high council-table To sit the midst of Trinal Unity He laid aside, and, here with us to be.    Forsook the courts of everlasting day,  And chose with us a darksome house of mortal clay.  Say, Heavenly Muse, shall not thy sacred vein  Afford a present to the Infant God? Hast thou no verse, no hymn, or solemn strain,  To welcome him to this his new abode,  Now while the heaven, by the Sun's team untrod,    Hath took no print of the approaching light,  And all the spangled host keep watch in squadrons bright? See how from far upon the eastern road The star-led wizards haste with odours sweet! Oh, run! present them with thy humble ode, And lay it lowly at his blessed feet; Have thou the honour first thy Lord to greet,    And join thy voice unto the Angel Quire,  From out his secret altar touched with hallowed fire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My wife and I were happy for 20 years.
