That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe. You are no longer working against the grain of the universe; you're working with it... You have been forgiven by God and now you can forgive yourself. All self hate, self-despising, self-rejection, drop away, and you accept yourself in God, respect yourself, and love yourself... You cease to move into yourself, away from others. You give up your antagonism. You begin to move toward others in love. God moved toward you in gracious, outgoing love, and you move toward others in that same outgoing love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Horatio looked handsomely miserable, like Hamlet slipping on a piece of orange-peel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42756]]></link><description><![CDATA[Horatio looked handsomely miserable, like Hamlet slipping on a piece of orange-peel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By working faithfully eight hours a day, you may eventually get to be a boss and work twelve hours a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4771]]></link><description><![CDATA[By working faithfully eight hours a day, you may eventually get to be a boss and work twelve hours a day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19069]]></link><description><![CDATA[Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think my dad was most proud of Dick because he never got a big head.

The load, or weight, or burden, of my neighbour's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship --or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. All day long we are, in some degree, helping each other to one or other of these destinations. It is in the light of these overwhelming possibilities, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2083]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Los Angeles riots were not caused by the Rodney King verdict.

It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The families coming up here will be people who want to escape New Orleans and other Gulf Coast areas permanently, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36877]]></link><description><![CDATA[The families coming up here will be people who want to escape New Orleans and other Gulf Coast areas permanently,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36877</guid></item></channel></rss>
