They cannot believe that there is verily an unseen, mysterious power, till the world and all that is in it has vanished in the smoke of despair; till cause and effect are nothing to the intellect, and possible glories have faded from the imagination. Then, deprived of all that made life pleasant or hopeful, the immortal essence, lonely and wretched and unable to cease, looks up with its now unfettered and wakened instinct to the source of its own life -- to the possible God who, notwithstanding all the improbabilities of His existence, may yet perhaps be, and may yet perhaps hear His wretched creature that calls. In this loneliness of despair, life must find The Life: for joy is gone, and life is all that is left; it is compelled to seek its source, its root, its eternal life. This alone remains a possible thing. Strange condition of despair into which the Spirit of God drives a man -- a condition in which the Best alone is the Possible!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Two PotsA river carried down in its stream two Pots, one made of earthenware and the other of brass. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1607]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Two PotsA river carried down in its stream two Pots, one made of earthenware and the other of brass.

They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms. And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard; Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. -As You Like It. Act ii. Sc. 7.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Manny we are getting a player who has won a couple of MLS championships in San Jose and who ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36109]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Manny we are getting a player who has won a couple of MLS championships in San Jose and who is a solid, proven professional,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like we are making a crucial step in helping to preserve the Boulder area, and this very special ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38869]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like we are making a crucial step in helping to preserve the Boulder area, and this very special corner of the West.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace is not a relationship of nations.
