How many inventions are some people forced to have recourse to in order to keep off a certain inward uneasiness, which they are afraid of and know not whence it comes? Alas, it is because there is a fallen spirit, a dark, aching fire, within them, which has never had its proper relief and is trying to discover itself and calling out for help at every cessation of worldly joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Glory is largely a theatrical concept.

We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be for ever with Him. When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive. It is so with Christ. In this world our contact with Him is shadowy, for we can only see through a glass darkly. It is spasmodic, for we are poor creatures and cannot live always on the heights. But the best definition of it is to say that heaven is that state where we will always be with Jesus, and where nothing will separate us from Him any more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love to go on tour and perform.
