Love is such that, without experiencing the joy of union with the object of our love, there is a real sense in which "the soul dies." A man who loves God according to the Conob idiom would say "my soul dies for God." This not only describes the powerful emotion felt by the one who loves, but it should imply a related truth -- namely, that in true love there is no room for self. The man who loves God must die to self. True love is, of all emotions, the most unselfish, for it does not look out for self but for others. False love seeks to possess; true love seeks to be possessed. False love leads to cancerous jealousy; true love leads to a life-giving ministry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here, or nowhere, is the thing we seek. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50256]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here, or nowhere, is the thing we seek.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm astounded by people who want to 'know' the universe when it's hard enough to find your way around Chinatown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60237]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm astounded by people who want to 'know' the universe when it's hard enough to find your way around Chinatown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Freedom would be not to choose between black and white but to abjure such prescribed choices. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65287]]></link><description><![CDATA[Freedom would be not to choose between black and white but to abjure such prescribed choices.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weren't sure if he was going to play, but we had a plan for him if he showed up. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36099]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weren't sure if he was going to play, but we had a plan for him if he showed up.

For to seek for eminence and significancy in grace is but like seeking for eminence and significancy in nature. And the old man can relish glory and distinction in religion as well as in common life, and will be content to undergo as many labours, pains, and self-denials for the sake of religious, as for the sake of secular glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's great to be here to see Danny, but it's going to be weird watching from the stands, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37265]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's great to be here to see Danny, but it's going to be weird watching from the stands,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am not ashamed to confess that I am ignorant of what I do not know. [Lat., Non me pudet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20404]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am not ashamed to confess that I am ignorant of what I do not know. [Lat., Non me pudet fateri nescire quod nesciam.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weren't angry.
