Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough... It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again," to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again," to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike: it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Force and not opinion is the queen of the world; but it is opinion that uses the force. [Fr., La ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44953]]></link><description><![CDATA[Force and not opinion is the queen of the world; but it is opinion that uses the force. [Fr., La force est la reine du monde, et non pas l'opinion; mais l'opinion est celle qui use de la force.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams have only one owner at a time.
