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 sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43916]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say, “I want to see the manager.” ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65747]]></link><description><![CDATA[After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say, “I want to see the manager.”]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wolves are a high-profile species and the fact of the matter is the (Fish and Wildlife) Service has a hard ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37617]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wolves are a high-profile species and the fact of the matter is the (Fish and Wildlife) Service has a hard time getting anything off the endangered species list.
