We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Through our willingness to help others we can learn to be happy rather than depressed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60961]]></link><description><![CDATA[Through our willingness to help others we can learn to be happy rather than depressed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The true function of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and no other task is of any consequence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62401]]></link><description><![CDATA[The true function of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and no other task is of any consequence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Physician, heal thyself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48577]]></link><description><![CDATA[Physician, heal thyself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Although we as Muslims hold freedom of speech as one of the unalienable rights of human beings, we believe that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34340]]></link><description><![CDATA[Although we as Muslims hold freedom of speech as one of the unalienable rights of human beings, we believe that press has the utmost responsibility to exercise restraint when it comes to the basic beliefs of human beings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34340</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14139]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily seen, while the latter lies in the depth, where few are willing to search for it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a privilege as well as being exciting.
