In the bedroom you grew up in. It's the only place on this entire planet that is yours. The only place on the planet that understands you. It understands the way your nerves flare everytime you think about talking to anyone, scared into shyness at the thought of opening your mouth but the way you are the best hypocrite around when you're in front of a microphone. It knows what turns that switch on and off and on again. It understands the way when you don't have a smile on your face everyone only spits: "what's wrong"s and "you look tired"s. So the way you keep it on your face just wide enough to avoid questions. It understands how neurotic you have become, the way you treat your flaws like old friends. The way you look in the mirror and think of yourself as "Mr. Misery"...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To gaine teacheth how to spend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50004]]></link><description><![CDATA[To gaine teacheth how to spend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mother of revolution and crime is poverty ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47866]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mother of revolution and crime is poverty]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even in the force and road of casualty. -The Merchant of Venice.

Theologia Germanica  June 21, 1998  Alas! day by day we ask that His Will may be done, and yet, when it comes to the doing, we find it so hard! We offer ourselves so often to God -- we continually say, "Lord, I am Thine, I give Thee my heart," and when He accepts it, we are such cowards.
