Jesus says that His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it... Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can nnot be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow -- in which no work can be done, any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The audience applauded, even though it was not clear what Bush meant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17388]]></link><description><![CDATA[The audience applauded, even though it was not clear what Bush meant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The traveled mind is the catholic mind educated from exclusiveness and egotism. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59606]]></link><description><![CDATA[The traveled mind is the catholic mind educated from exclusiveness and egotism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because of their courage, their lack of fear, they (creative people) are willing to make silly mistakes.

The truly creative person is one who can think crazy; such a person knows full well that many of his great ideas will prove to be worthless. The creative person is flexible -- he is able to change as the situation changes, to break habits, to face indecision and changes in conditions without undue stress. He is not threatened by the unexpected as rigid, inflexible people are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves together; that at length they may emerge, full-formed and majestic, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56278]]></link><description><![CDATA[Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves together; that at length they may emerge, full-formed and majestic, into the daylight of Life, which they are thenceforth to rule.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What a free society offers to the individual is much more than what he would be able to do if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47398]]></link><description><![CDATA[What a free society offers to the individual is much more than what he would be able to do if only he were free.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today.

When this position is expressed, it must be attacked directly and unapologetically, because it represents a genuine evil, ... the idolatry of bricks and mortar, a heresy specifically undermined by the Apostle Paul in Athens when he said, "The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man" (Acts 17:24). The notion that it is perfectly all right to sell a New Testament in the department store on Monday, but that it is wrong to sell it in the meetinghouse on Sunday, represents a confusion so great that it is truly appalling. As Christians, we believe in the Real Presence, but it is a severe denial of the divine power to claim that this Presence is limited geographically. If, in a building dedicated to worship, a seeker buys a book on Sunday morning and his life is deepened in consequence, the only important thing to say is that the Gospel has thereby been preached, and this is one of the major tasks of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make less thy body hence, and more thy grace. Leave gormandizing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58879]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make less thy body hence, and more thy grace. Leave gormandizing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leadership is an action, not a position. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24443]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leadership is an action, not a position.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In contrast to Central and Eastern Canada, housing conditions in Western Canada remain very tight and are showing increased signs ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32202]]></link><description><![CDATA[In contrast to Central and Eastern Canada, housing conditions in Western Canada remain very tight and are showing increased signs of speculation. When economic conditions are booming, it can also create the perfect breeding ground for speculative price bubbles to form.

He always wanted something for my brother and myself, some kind of business. He'd asked the owners of this course to call him if it ever came up for sale, and one day, they called. I had a scholarship offer to Ohio State and my dad said, 'Son, what do you want to do, cut grass or go to school?' I said, what do you want me to do, Dad? He said, 'Well, I can't afford any help.' I said, 'No problem, Dad, I'll help you cut grass.'
