There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lunatic, the lover, and the poet Are of imagination all compact: One sees more devils than vast hell can ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55531]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lunatic, the lover, and the poet Are of imagination all compact: One sees more devils than vast hell can hold, That is, the madman: the lover, all as frantic, Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt: The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven; And as imagination bodies forth The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing A local habitation and a name. Such tricks hath strong imagination, That if it would but apprehend some joy, It comprehends some bringer of that joy; Or in the night, imagining some fear, How easy is a bush supposed a bear! -A Midsummer Night's Dream. Act v. Sc. 1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And far and wide, in a scarlet tide, The poppy's bonfire spread. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47694]]></link><description><![CDATA[And far and wide, in a scarlet tide, The poppy's bonfire spread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55019]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The American spirit wears no political label.
