All your insight only leads you to the knowledge that it is not in yourselves that you will discover the true and the good. The philosophers promised them to you, and have not been able to keep their promises... Your principal maladies are pride, which cuts you off from God, and sensuality, which binds you to the earth; and they have done nothing but foster at least one of these maladies. If they have given you God for your object, it has only been to pander to your pride; they have made you think that you were like Him and resembled Him by your nature. And those who have grasped the vanity of such a pretension have cast you down into the other abyss by making you believe that your nature was like that of the beasts of the field, and have led you to seek your good in lust, which is the lot of animals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4076]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do?

It is hard, under the pressure of haste, uneasiness, ill-temper, self-complacency, and conceit, to continue intending justice. Power corrupts; the "insolence of office" will creep in. We see it so clearly in our superiors; is it unlikely that our inferiors see it in us? How many of those who have been over us did not sometimes (perhaps often) need our forgiveness? Be sure that we likewise need the forgiveness of those that are under us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I once asked my history teacher how we were expected to learn anything useful from his subject, when it seemed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19514]]></link><description><![CDATA[I once asked my history teacher how we were expected to learn anything useful from his subject, when it seemed to me to be nothing but a monotonous and sordid succession of robber baron scumbags devoid of any admirable human qualities.

You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity asa vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise ingiving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can giveyourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, orsome time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough toaccept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, andfrom the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He called me and said he loved me.
