It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we'd be truly dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11948</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In politics if you want anything said, ask a man.

And it would be nice to accept your view that this just shows we are made to live by charity. I'm afraid, however, I detect two much less attractive reasons for the ease of my own intercessory prayers. One is that I am often, I believe, praying for others when I should be doing things for them. It's so much easier to pray for a bore than to go and see him. And the other is like unto it. Suppose I pray that you may be given grace to withstand your besetting sin (short list of candidates for this post will be forwarded on demand). Well, all the work has to be done by God and you. If I pray against my own besetting sin there will be work for me. One sometimes fights shy of admitting an act to be a sin for this very reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes a long time to bring excellence to maturity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26576]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes a long time to bring excellence to maturity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that blowes in the dust fills his eyes with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49437]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that blowes in the dust fills his eyes with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's more news of good economic growth and low inflation.
