And men see his good works, and admire them in spite of themselves, and see that they are God-like, and that God's grace is no dream, but that the Holy Spirit is still among men, and that all nobleness and manliness is His gift, His stamp, His picture: and so they get a glimpse of God again in His saints and heroes, and glorify their Father who is in heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As soon as tradition has come to be recognized as tradition, it is dead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59515]]></link><description><![CDATA[As soon as tradition has come to be recognized as tradition, it is dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like to feel the burn of the audience's eyes when I'm whispering all my darkest secrets into the microphone ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46143]]></link><description><![CDATA[I like to feel the burn of the audience's eyes when I'm whispering all my darkest secrets into the microphone]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a recession when your neighbour loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44384]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a recession when your neighbour loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some of my best friends are illusions.

It is love alone in the holy Deity that will allow no peace to the wicked, nor ever cease its judgments till every sinner is forced to confess that it is good for him that he has been in trouble, and thankfully own that not the wrath but the love of God has plucked out that right eye, cut off that right band, which he ought to have done but would not do for himself and his own salvation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6959</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wolf and the LambWOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1608]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Wolf and the LambWOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."
