If I were to preach upon this text ("For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matt. 6:21), to such a glass, it would be enough for half the sermon, enough to show the worldly man his treasure, and the object of his Heart, to call his eye to that minute-glass, and to tell him, "There flows, there flies, your treasure, and your heart with it."   But if I had a secular glass, a glass that would run an age; if the two hemispheres of the world were composed in the form of such a glass, and all the world burnt to ashes, and all the ashes, and the sands, and atoms of the world put into that glass, it would not be enough to tell the godly man what his treasure, and the object of his heart is. A parrot will sooner be brought to relate to us the wisdom of a council table, than any Ambrose, or any Chrysostom, men that have gold and honey in their names, shall tell us what the treasure of heaven is, and that man's peace, that hath set his Heart upon that treasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To get thine ends, lay bashfulnesse aside; Who fears to aske, doth teach to be deny'd. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3924]]></link><description><![CDATA[To get thine ends, lay bashfulnesse aside; Who fears to aske, doth teach to be deny'd.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, a dainty plant is the ivy green, That creepeth o'er ruins old!  Of right choice food are his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23109]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, a dainty plant is the ivy green, That creepeth o'er ruins old!  Of right choice food are his meals I ween,   In his cell so lone and cold.    . . . .     Creeping where no life is seen,      A rare old plant is the ivy green.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3364]]></link><description><![CDATA[An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3364</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the spirit and not the form of law that keeps justice alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24308]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the spirit and not the form of law that keeps justice alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything, except what is worth knowing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10854]]></link><description><![CDATA[The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything, except what is worth knowing]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brains, integrity, and force may be all very well, but what you need today is Charm.
