But when we analyze it, it turns into a complex tangle of paradoxes. We become ourselves by dying to ourselves. We gain only what we give up, and if we give up everything we gain everything. We cannot find ourselves within ourselves, but only in others; yet at the same time, before we can go out to others we must first find ourselves. We must forget ourselves in order to become truly conscious of who we are. The best way to love ourselves is to love others; yet we cannot love others unless we love ourselves, since it is written, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." But if we love ourselves in the wrong way, we become incapable of loving anybody else. And indeed when we love ourselves wrongly, we hate ourselves; if we hate ourselves we cannot help hating others. Yet there is a sense in which we must hate others and leave them in order to find God... As for this finding of God, we cannot even look for Him unless we have already found Him, and we cannot find Him unless He has first found us. We cannot begin to seek Him without a special gift of His grace; yet if we wait for grace to move us before beginning to seek Him, we will probably never begin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life.

This is, of course, why many otherwise honest intellectual people will construct a neat by-pass around the claim of Jesus to be God. Being people of insight and imagination, they know perfectly well that once to accept such a claim as fact would mean a readjustment of their own purposes and values and affections which they may have no wish to make. To call Jesus the greatest Figure in History or the finest Moral Teacher the world has ever seen commits no one to anything. But once to allow the startled mind to accept as fact that this man is really focused-God may commit anyone to anything! There is every excuse for blundering in the dark, but in the light there is no cover from reality. It is because we strongly sense this, and not merely because we feel that the evidence is ancient and scanty, that we shrink from committing ourselves to such a far-reaching belief as that Jesus Christ was really God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man gotta right to decide his own destiny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30319]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man gotta right to decide his own destiny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clearly, it's a blow to the Gore camp. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40702]]></link><description><![CDATA[Clearly, it's a blow to the Gore camp.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Optimism is the opium of the people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45195]]></link><description><![CDATA[Optimism is the opium of the people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To-morrow let us do or die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/496]]></link><description><![CDATA[To-morrow let us do or die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I haven't seen this kind of support [for a tax cut] in the 26 years I've been in Congress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30199]]></link><description><![CDATA[I haven't seen this kind of support [for a tax cut] in the 26 years I've been in Congress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I give them each a different quote about about winning, confidence, motivation, stuff like that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39443]]></link><description><![CDATA[I give them each a different quote about about winning, confidence, motivation, stuff like that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, naturally, I'm Sean Michael Thomas or whatever his name is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, naturally, I'm Sean Michael Thomas or whatever his name is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coming together is a beginning.
