This makes them self-sufficient, morose, severe judges of all those that fall short of their mortifications. And thus their self-denials do only that for them which indulgences do for other people: they withstand and hinder the operation of God upon their souls, and instead of being really self-denials, they strengthen and keep up the kingdom of self.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57331]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57331</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is in us a tendency to locate the shaping forces of our existence outside ourselves.

Success and failure are unavoidably related in our minds with the state of things around us. Hence it is that people with a sense of fulfillment think it is a good world and would like to preserve it as it is, while the frustrated favor radical change. The tendency to look for all causes outside ourselves persists even when it is clear that our state of being is the product of personal qualities such as ability, character, appearance, health and so on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was fash and full of faith that "something would turn up." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14625]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was fash and full of faith that "something would turn up."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of William Tyndale, Translator of the Scriptures, Martyr, 1536   [William Tyndale] was a master of a simple ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6838]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of William Tyndale, Translator of the Scriptures, Martyr, 1536   [William Tyndale] was a master of a simple and forceful literary style. This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We judge others by their behavior.
