Therefore he must not feel too keenly the burden of responsibility, because at the end of the day all he can say is, "We are unprofitable servants". This knowledge, far from inhibiting action, actually releases the Christian from that appalling feeling of responsibility that has driven so many high-minded humanists to despair, even to suicide... Work done conscientiously by the Christian is his share in Christ's service; but it is Christ's service, and therefore the Christian need neither be proud because it has succeeded or overwhelmed because it has failed. The service of Christ is supremely expressed in the apparent failure of the Cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think our voice got heard loud and clear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36580]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think our voice got heard loud and clear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our fathers used to say that the master's eye was the best fertilizer. [Lat., Majores fertilissium is agro oculum domini ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1961]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our fathers used to say that the master's eye was the best fertilizer. [Lat., Majores fertilissium is agro oculum domini esse dixerunt.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't you realize that as long as you have to sit down to pee, you'll never be a dominant force ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27236]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't you realize that as long as you have to sit down to pee, you'll never be a dominant force in the world?

The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not waste your time on Social Questions.

Love them, and you will see the eternal in the glance of their eyes of jet, amber, or emerald. Love also the trees, the plants, the water that runs though the meadow and on to the sea without knowing where it goes; love the mountain, the desert, the forest, the immense sky, full of light or full of clouds; because all these exceed man and reveal the eternal to you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learn to enjoy every minute of your life.
