It is, one is told, the unforgivable sin, but it is a sin the corrupt or evil man never practices. He always has hope. He never reaches the freezing-point of knowing absolute failure. Only the man of goodwill carries always in his heart this capacity for damnation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54172]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In an urban forest, there is strength in diversity - in age and in species.

St. John of the Cross  December 15, 2000   Two thousand years of failure have not taught some reformers that you can't stop sin by declaring it illegal. Two thousand years have not taught them that you can't save a man's soul by force -- you can only lose your own in the attempt. Drunkenness and gambling and secularism and lechery -- various hopeful churchmen have earnestly tried to outlaw them all; and what is the result? A drunken nation, a gambling nation, a secularist nation, an adulterous nation. And, often, a ruined Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be beautiful means to be yourself.
