This perhaps may seem to some a great oversight and omission. But our Lord in great wisdom thought fit to give us a pattern of a quite different sort of life, which was, not to fly the conversation of men and to live in a monastery or a wilderness, but to do good among men, to live in the world with great freedom and with great innocence. He did indeed sometimes retire himself for the more free and private exercise of devotion, as we ought to do; but he passed his life chiefly in the conversation of men, that they might have all the benefit that was possible of his instruction and example We read that "he was carried into the wilderness to be tempted," but not that he lived there to avoid temptation. He hath given us an example of denying the world without leaving it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't know who discovered water, but we know it wasn't the fish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44786]]></link><description><![CDATA[We don't know who discovered water, but we know it wasn't the fish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity during life is a very different thing from generosity in the hour of death; one proceeds from genuine liberality ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity during life is a very different thing from generosity in the hour of death; one proceeds from genuine liberality and benevolence, the other from pride or fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great tragedy of science -- the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9324]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great tragedy of science -- the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like any other gift, the gift of grace can be yours only if you'll reach out and take it.
