We must know before we can love. In order to know God, we must often think of Him; and when we come to love Him, we shall then also think of Him often, for our heart will be with our treasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage requires a person to prepare 4 types of "Rings": Engagement Ring Wedding Ring, Suffering, Enduring ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61491]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage requires a person to prepare 4 types of "Rings": Engagement Ring Wedding Ring, Suffering, Enduring]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What, man, defy the devil?

The Christian is not a homo religiosus but a man, pure and simple, just as Jesus became man... It is only by living completely in this world that one learns to believe. One must abandon every attempt to make something of oneself, whether it be a saint, a converted sinner, a churchman, a righteous man, or an unrighteous one, a sick man or a healthy one... This is what I mean by worldliness -- taking life in one's stride, with all its duties and problems, its successes and failures, its experiences and helplessness... How can success make us arrogant or failure lead us astray, when we participate in the sufferings of God by living in this world?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To have command is to have all the power you will ever need.

So burdened were men with their wickedness that they seemed rather to be brute beasts than reasonable men, reflecting the very likeness of the Word. What, then, was God to do? What else could He possibly do, being God, but renew His Image in mankind, so that through it men might once more come to know Him? And how could this be done save by the coming of the very Image Himself, our Savior Jesus Christ?... Men had turned from the contemplation of God above, and were looking for Him in two opposite directions, down among created things, and things of sense. The Savior of us all, the Word of God, in His great love took to Himself a body and moved as Man among men, meeting their senses, so to speak, half-way. He became Himself an object for the senses, so that those who were seeking God in sensible things might apprehend the Father through the works which He, the Word of God, did in the body.

You may attribute miracles to Him, but not nonsense. This is no limit to His power. If you choose to say, "God can give a creature free will and at the same time withhold free will from it", you have not succeeded in saying anything about God: meaningless combinations of words do not suddenly acquire meaning simply because we prefix to them the two other words "God can." It remains true that all things are possible with God: the intrinsic impossibilities are not things but nonentities. It is no more possible for God than for the weakest of His creatures to carry out both of two mutually exclusive alternatives -- not because His power meets an obstacle, but because nonsense remains nonsense even when we talk it about God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not seek death. Death will find you. But seek the road which makes death a fulfillment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not seek death. Death will find you. But seek the road which makes death a fulfillment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is impossible to underrate human intelligence -- beginning with one's own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36457]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is impossible to underrate human intelligence -- beginning with one's own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many people are surprised to hear that we have comedians in Russia, but they are there.
