And it would be nice to accept your view that this just shows we are made to live by charity. I'm afraid, however, I detect two much less attractive reasons for the ease of my own intercessory prayers. One is that I am often, I believe, praying for others when I should be doing things for them. It's so much easier to pray for a bore than to go and see him. And the other is like unto it. Suppose I pray that you may be given grace to withstand your besetting sin (short list of candidates for this post will be forwarded on demand). Well, all the work has to be done by God and you. If I pray against my own besetting sin there will be work for me. One sometimes fights shy of admitting an act to be a sin for this very reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The game of History is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of thr majority in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19398]]></link><description><![CDATA[The game of History is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of thr majority in the middle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of the hills of Habersham, Down the valleys of Hall,  I hurry amain to reach the plain;  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54324]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of the hills of Habersham, Down the valleys of Hall,  I hurry amain to reach the plain;   Run the rapid and leap the fall,    Split at the rock, and together again     Accept my bed, or narrow or wide,      And flee from folly on every side       With a lover's pain to attain the plain,        Far from the hills of Habersham,         Far from the valleys of Hall.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The path to the Mideast is litteredwith Nobel peace laureateswho have not yet achievedwhat can only be achieved ineach heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25737]]></link><description><![CDATA[The path to the Mideast is litteredwith Nobel peace laureateswho have not yet achievedwhat can only be achieved ineach heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25737</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that marries for wealth sells his liberty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49474]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that marries for wealth sells his liberty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are apt to offend ('tis true) where they find most goodness to forgive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8407]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men are apt to offend ('tis true) where they find most goodness to forgive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[After working constantly in the 1980s, Armstrong tried his hand at screenwriting in the 1990s.
