When, through the operation of such laws, surprising events take place, [we may] cry out, ... "Such is the will of God," instead of setting ourselves to inquire whether it is the will of God to give us power to bring about or prevent such results; then our conduct is not piety but sinful laziness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I contemplate the interposition of Providence, as it was visibly manifested, in guiding us through the Revolution, in preparing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51910]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I contemplate the interposition of Providence, as it was visibly manifested, in guiding us through the Revolution, in preparing us for the reception of a general government, and in conciliating the good will of the People of America towards one]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All literature is gossip. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25277]]></link><description><![CDATA[All literature is gossip.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the government does not help us, we are ready to take up arms, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36725]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the government does not help us, we are ready to take up arms,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am afraid [if the present trend in Vietnam continues] that direct confrontation, first of all between Washington and Peking, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60638]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am afraid [if the present trend in Vietnam continues] that direct confrontation, first of all between Washington and Peking, is inevitable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first outage was at 8:20 a.m., and the last customer was back on by 3:30 p.m..

We must do it together -- or be cast aside together, and God in his absolute freedom goes on by other means to use His Church in hastening His Kingdom.  ...Howard Hewlett Clark    January 31, 1998  Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  The axioms of reason are non-demonstrable assumptions. Why should faith not be granted the same privilege? The denial of the truths of faith is, in the last analysis, no less a faith than faith itself, for it rests on personal assumptions which are apart from scientific necessity. In other words, as the truth of reason carries its own evidence, so also with faith. To the mind to whom the axioms of reason are not self-evident, they cannot be proven. So also in the case of faith: for the mind that is not enlightened by faith, the evidence of faith is ridiculous. But for the man whose eyes have been enlightened by the Spirit, faith has its proper evidence, though different from that of reason. The only sufficient ground of faith is the authority of God Himself as he addresses me in His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not time or opportunity that is to determine intimacy;-- it is disposition alone.
