A hard necessity that is, not to want something which can not be avoided. If it could be managed, we would much rather not die; we would like to become like the angels by some other means than death. "We have a building from God," says St. Paul, "a home not made with hands, everlasting in heaven. For indeed we groan, longing to be clothed over with our dwelling from heaven; provided, though we be found clothed, and not naked. For indeed we who are in this dwelling place groan, being burdened; in that we do not wish to be stripped, but to covered over, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life." We want to reach the kingdom of God, but we don't want to travel by way of death. And yet there stands Necessity saying: "This way, please." Do you hesitate, man, to go this way, when this is the way that God came to you?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66012]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The issues of redistricting using the 2000 Census doesn't seem likely to me to be successful.

Only he who lives by the forgiveness of his sin in Jesus Christ will rightly think little of himself. He will know that his own wisdom reached the end of its tether when Jesus forgave him. He will know that it is good for his own will to be broken in the encounter with his neighbor...   But not only my neighbor's will, but also his honor is more important than mine. The desire for one's own honor hinders faith. One who seeks his own honor is no longer seeking God and his neighbor. What does it matter if I suffer injustice? Would I not have deserved even worse punishment from God, if He had not dealt with me according to His mercy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That golden key That opes the palace of eternity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14203]]></link><description><![CDATA[That golden key That opes the palace of eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Indoors or out, no one relaxes in March, that month of wind and taxes, the wind will presently disappear, the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54966]]></link><description><![CDATA[Indoors or out, no one relaxes in March, that month of wind and taxes, the wind will presently disappear, the taxes last us all the year.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been a vegetarian for years and years.

It is not enough to express formal belief in the "Incarnation" or in the "Divinity of. Christ"; the staggering truth must be accepted afresh -- that in this vast, mysterious universe, of which we are an almost infinitesimal part, the great Mystery, Whom we call God, has visited our planet in Person. It is from this conviction that there springs unconquerable certainty and unquenchable faith and hope. It is not enough to believe theoretically that Jesus was both God and Man; not enough to admire, respect, and even worship Him; it is not even enough to try to follow Him. The reason for the insufficiency of these things is that the modern intelligent mind, which has had its horizons widened in dozens of different ways, has got to be shocked afresh by the audacious central Fact -- that, as a sober matter of history, God became one of us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A warm smile is the universal language of kindness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64803]]></link><description><![CDATA[A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The United States brags about its political system, but the President says one thing during the election, something else when ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47029]]></link><description><![CDATA[The United States brags about its political system, but the President says one thing during the election, something else when he takes office, something else at midterm and something else when he leaves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She blushed and smiled nonstop for 20 minutes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34389]]></link><description><![CDATA[She blushed and smiled nonstop for 20 minutes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To his dog, every man is Napolean, hence the constant popularity of dogs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12684]]></link><description><![CDATA[To his dog, every man is Napolean, hence the constant popularity of dogs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love makes all hard hearts gentle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49614]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love makes all hard hearts gentle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Apollo does not always bend his bow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50187]]></link><description><![CDATA[Apollo does not always bend his bow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Long on the wave reflected lustres play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Long on the wave reflected lustres play.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A great fortune is a great slavery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42996]]></link><description><![CDATA[A great fortune is a great slavery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Amiens was taken by the Fox, and retaken by the Lion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49115]]></link><description><![CDATA[Amiens was taken by the Fox, and retaken by the Lion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man has received from nature the right to give orders to others.
