Make me truly thankful for that portion of health which Thy mercy has restored, and enable me to use the remains of life to Thy glory and my own salvation. Take not from me, O Lord, Thy Holy Spirit. Extinguish in my mind all sinful and inordinate desires. Let me resolve to do that which is right, and let me by Thy help keep my resolutions. Let me, if it is best for me, at last know peace and comfort, but whatever state of life Thou shalt appoint me, let me end it by a happy death, and enjoy eternal happiness in Thy presence, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more that you try to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24959]]></link><description><![CDATA[The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more that you try to avoid suffering, the more you suffer, because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24959</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coquetry is the essential characteristic, and the prevalent humor of women; but they do not all practise it, because the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10170]]></link><description><![CDATA[Coquetry is the essential characteristic, and the prevalent humor of women; but they do not all practise it, because the coquetry of some is restrained by fear or by reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59217]]></link><description><![CDATA[When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's always been a dream of mine to be involved in the America's Cup.
