"This friend is always sure and right;  His lantern is sufficient light -- I need no star," I said. I sought Him in the city square.  Logic and I went up and down  The marketplace of many a town, And He was never there. I tracked Him to the mind's far rim.  The valiant Intellect went forth  To east and west and south and north, And found no trace of Him. We walked the world from sun to sun,  Logic and I, with little Faith,  But never came to Nazareth, Or found the Holy One. I sought in vain. And finally,  Back to the heart's small house I crept,  And fell upon my knees, and wept; And lo! -- He came to me!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature has hardly formed a woman ugly enough to be insensible to flattery upon her person. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16183]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature has hardly formed a woman ugly enough to be insensible to flattery upon her person.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man, If with his tongue he cannot win a woman. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55335]]></link><description><![CDATA[That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man, If with his tongue he cannot win a woman. -The Two Gentleman of Verona.

We think of His earthly life as moving on a plane so different from ours that no parallel can be drawn between them. What we forget is, that He too needed to walk by faith, needed to be filled with the Holy Spirit, needed the sympathy of loving friends, needed the strengthening that is gained by private prayer. His strong and beautiful, serene and holy life so fills the eye that we lose sight of His secret intercourse with the Father, out of which came all its beauty, all its power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fields and trees are not willing to teach me anything; but this can be effected by men residing in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8777]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fields and trees are not willing to teach me anything; but this can be effected by men residing in the city.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8777</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4685]]></link><description><![CDATA[A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4685</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are not books, lumps of lifeless paper, but minds alive on the shelves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4506]]></link><description><![CDATA[These are not books, lumps of lifeless paper, but minds alive on the shelves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet in bestowing, madam, He was most princely. -King Henry VIII.
