The man whose prayer is so pure that he never asks God for anything does not know who God is, and does not know who he is himself: for he does not know his own need of God. All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Iran's case is sent to the Security Council, we will respond by many ways, for example by holding back ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41292]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Iran's case is sent to the Security Council, we will respond by many ways, for example by holding back on oil sales,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cheerful life is what the Muses love, A soaring spirit is their prime delight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5848]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cheerful life is what the Muses love, A soaring spirit is their prime delight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel sorry for the person who can't get genuinely excited about his work.
