But if our observer had the power and omniscience of the Lord, he would also feel and sense, pulsing through and vibrating from every one of us here below, a desperate and unending plea, "Notice me! I want to be known admired, and loved by the whole world!" And it is this, this glorious weakness, this dependence of ours on each other, that makes some of us usually heroes and fools at the same time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so that it touches not only those to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19017]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so that it touches not only those to whom you can give it easily, but also to those who need it so much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wrongs are often forgiven; contempt never ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9928]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wrongs are often forgiven; contempt never]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51442]]></link><description><![CDATA[How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The same thing happened today that happened yesterday, only to different people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62496]]></link><description><![CDATA[The same thing happened today that happened yesterday, only to different people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one satisfying way to boot a computer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9586]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is only one satisfying way to boot a computer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trenchant blade Toledo trusty. For want of fighting was grown rusty,  And ate into itself for lack  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45872]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trenchant blade Toledo trusty. For want of fighting was grown rusty,  And ate into itself for lack   Of somebody to hew and hack.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are pleased to have received approval of the transaction in all six states served by PacifiCorp.

The first is called insuperable, the second inseparable, the third singular. Thy love is insuperable when nothing may overcome it, that is, neither weal, nor woe, nor anguish, just of flesh nor the liking of this world... Thy love is inseparable when all thy thoughts and thy wills are gathered together and fastened wholly in Jesus Christ, so that thou mayest no time forget Him, but aye thou thinkest on Him... Thy love is singular when all thy delight is in Jesus Christ and in no other thing finds joy and comfort.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's too bad to want a thing and not be allowed it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61093]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's too bad to want a thing and not be allowed it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We even have some of the boys peeking over the fence watching our games.

Origen seems to have put forward a definition generally agreed upon among ecclesiastical writers when he said that it is a faculty of the reason to distinguish between good and evil, a faculty of the will to choose one or the other. Augustine does not disagree with this when he teaches that it is a faculty of the reason and the will to choose good with the assistance of grace; evil, when grace is absent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62619]]></link><description><![CDATA[But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps no place in any community is so totally democratic as the town library.
