Mother, wife, or sister, Woman is the caress of life, the soothing sweetness of affection shed over its toils, a reflection for the individual of the loving providence which watches over Humanity. In her there is treasure enough of consoling tenderness to allay every pain. Moreover for every one of us she is the initiator of the future. The mother's first kiss teaches the child love; the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope and faith in life; and love and faith create a desire for perfection and the power of reaching towards it step by step; create the future, in short, of which the living symbol is the child, link between us and the generations to come. Through her the Family, with its divine mystery of reproduction, points to Eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The television, that insidious beast, that Medusa which freezes a billion people to stone every night, staring fixedly, that Siren ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58827]]></link><description><![CDATA[The television, that insidious beast, that Medusa which freezes a billion people to stone every night, staring fixedly, that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In terms of the game theory, we might say the universe is so constituted as to maximize play.

The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one.
