One day others will come who will do the same things better. And some day he will have been completely forgotten--even if he should have built the pyramids or the St. Gotthard tunnel or invented atomic fission. And one thing is even more certain: whether the achievement of a man's life is great or small, significant or insignificant, he will one day stand before his eternal judge, and everything that he has done and performed will be no more than a mole hill, and then he will have nothing better to do than hope for something he has not earned: not for a crown, but quite simply for gracious judgment which he has not deserved. That is the only thing that will count then, achievement or not. "My kindness shall not depart from you." By this man lives. By this alone can he live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is an emotion that is based on an opinion of women that is impossible for those who have had ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65922]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is an emotion that is based on an opinion of women that is impossible for those who have had any experience with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wasn't sure what I was going to do.

He must cease to be George, Hans, Ivan or Tadao- a human atom with an existence bounded by birth and death. The most drastic way to achieve this end is by complete assimilation of the individual into a collective body. The fully assimilated individual does not see himself and others as human beings. When asked who he is, his automatic response is that he is a German, a Russian, a Japanese, a Christian, a Moslem, a member of a certain tribe or family. He has no purpose, worth and destiny apart from his collective body; and as long as that body lives he cannot really die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I only stayed there for one year though, because I got homesick, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39064]]></link><description><![CDATA[I only stayed there for one year though, because I got homesick,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He (Thomas) started to make a move on me into one, he had such a good run I actually had ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30216]]></link><description><![CDATA[He (Thomas) started to make a move on me into one, he had such a good run I actually had to close the door on him and hope he wasn't going to turn me around.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old men, when they scorne young, make much of death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49678]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old men, when they scorne young, make much of death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49678</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mirror of constant faith, revered and mourn'd! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14973]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mirror of constant faith, revered and mourn'd!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397   Doctrinal rightness and rightness of ecclesiastical position are important, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6296]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397   Doctrinal rightness and rightness of ecclesiastical position are important, but only as a starting point to go on into a living relationship -- and not as ends in themselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Witty remarks are all very well when spoken at a proper time: when out of place they are offensive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50852]]></link><description><![CDATA[Witty remarks are all very well when spoken at a proper time: when out of place they are offensive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life in a box is better than no life at all ...
