But a rational life, the life of a valuer, does not consist essentially in reaction. It consists in action. Man does not find his values, like the other animals; he creates them. The primary focus of a valuer is not to take the world as it comes and pass judgment. His primary focus is to identify what might and ought to exist, to uncover potentialities that he can exploit, to find ways of reshaping the world in the image of his values.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51994</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dost thou love life?

When I clear my mind and let the music take over, my hands seem to move on their own, and my voice utters words I haven't premeditated. This is pure instinct. It's like riding a wave. You just take a deep breath, hop on, and hang on as long as you can. That's basically how I songwrite when I'm composing impromptu pieces. It's a lot like channeling. Or free associating. And it's super fun, because anything can happen! It's pure creativity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This means that five days a week, we are sending our school children into environments where there is an abundance ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30852]]></link><description><![CDATA[This means that five days a week, we are sending our school children into environments where there is an abundance of high-calorie, low-nutritional-quality, inexpensive food.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray you, love, remember.

Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Annunciation of our Lord to the Virgin Mary   Faith is rest, not toil.

It is the giving up all the former weary efforts to do or feel something good, in order to induce God to love and pardon; and the calm reception of the truth so long rejected, that God is not waiting for any such inducements, but loves and pardons of His own goodwill, and is showing that goodwill to any sinner who will come to Him on such a footing, casting away his own poor performances or goodnesses, and relying implicitly upon the free love of Him who so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Martha had a very good time, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35346]]></link><description><![CDATA[Martha had a very good time,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love my neighbor as myself, Myself like him too, by his leave,  Nor to his pleasure, power or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27508]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love my neighbor as myself, Myself like him too, by his leave,  Nor to his pleasure, power or pelf   Came I to crouch, as I conceive.    Dame Nature doubtless has designed     A man the monarch of his mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not that into the fake meat anymore.

I would wish that all women -- girls even -- would read the Gospels and the letters of Paul. I wish that they were translated into all languages of all people. To make them understood is surely the first step. It may be that they might be ridiculed by many, but some would take them to heart. I long that the husbandman should sing portions of them to himself as he follows the plough, that the weaver should hum them to the tune of his shuttle, that the traveller should beguile with their stories the tedium of his journey.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The worst thing about being a tourist is having other tourists recognize
