That being so, you might perhaps do one or two little things, as acts of love, and also as discipline. I suggest by preference the mortification of the tongue -- as being very tiresome and quite harmless to the health. Careful guard on all amusing criticisms of others, on all complaints however casual or trivial.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was brown with a golden gloss, Janette, It was finer than silk of the floss, my pet;  'Twas ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18588]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was brown with a golden gloss, Janette, It was finer than silk of the floss, my pet;  'Twas a beautiful mist falling down to your wrist,   'Twas a thing to be braided, and jewelled, and kissed--    'Twas the loveliest hair in the world, my pet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What linebackers do is run and tackle, so you can't change the game to make it any easier.

Does anyone today remember how the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion? It is said that he had a vision -- saw a cross in the sky with the inscription, "In this sign shalt thou conquer." He accepted the new faith promptly, because he thought it would defeat his enemies for him. That is man's Christianity, a means to earthly triumph. And in our present crisis we are appealing to it to defeat the Russians for us. We hear of the life-and-death struggle between Christianity and Communism, the necessity of "keeping God alive as a social force" -- as if our Lord could not survive a Soviet victory! It is a poor sort of faith that imagines Christ defeated by anything men can do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't be afraid to take a big step when one is indicated.
