If we are whimpering, and sniveling, and begging to be spared the discipline of life that is sent to knock some smatterings of manhood into us, the answer to that prayer may never come at all. Thank God! Though, indeed, it is not easy to say that, with honesty. Still, it may never come at all, thank God. But if you have attained as far as Epictetus--pagan though you would call him--whose daily prayer was this: "O God, give me what Thou desirest for me, for I know that what Thou choosest for me is far better than I could choose"; if you are not bleating to get off, but asking to be given grace and strength to see this through with honour, "the very day" you pray that prayer, the answer always comes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We talk on principle, but we act on interest ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22952]]></link><description><![CDATA[We talk on principle, but we act on interest]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you do not raise your eyes you will think you are the highest point. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58345]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you do not raise your eyes you will think you are the highest point.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the act of a bad man to deceive by falsehood. [Lat., Improbi hominis est mendacio fallere.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11523]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the act of a bad man to deceive by falsehood. [Lat., Improbi hominis est mendacio fallere.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hold a true friend with both hands. - Kanuri proverb, Nigeria ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28496]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hold a true friend with both hands. - Kanuri proverb, Nigeria]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Anne & Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary  God is none other than the Saviour of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Anne & Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary  God is none other than the Saviour of our wretchedness.

Unknown  Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don't have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it. •Greg Anderson   A man of the world must seem to be what he wishes to be thought. •Jean De La Bruyère   Wishes expand in direct proportion to the resources available for their gratification. •Robert Dato  A wish is a desire without an attempt. •Farmer Digest  Oh, the secret life of man and woman -- dreaming how much better we would be than we are if we were somebody else or even ourselves, and feeling that our estate has been unexploited to its fullest. •Zelda Fitzgerald  Men try to run life according to their wishes; life runs itself according to necessity. •Jean Toomer  Some people develop a wishbone where their backbone should be. •Anonymous  Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible. •St. Augustine   When you love someone all your saved-up wishes start coming out. •Elizabeth Bowen   Whoever, in middle age, attempts to realize the wishes and hopes of his early youth, invariably deceives himself. Each ten years of a man's life has its own fortunes, its own hopes, its own desires. •Goethe   Destiny grants us our wishes, but in its own way, in order to give us something beyond our wishes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61799</guid></item></channel></rss>
