But the little mark on the soul may be much the same in both. Each has done something to himself which, unless he repents, will make it harder for him to keep out of the rage the next time he is tempted, and will make the rage worse when he does fall into it. Each of them, if he seriously turns to God, can have that twist in the central man straightened out again: each is, in the long run, doomed if he will not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Managing our emotions increases intuition and clarity.

He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Glory drags all men along, low as well as high, bound captive at the wheels of her glittering car. [Lat., ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17547]]></link><description><![CDATA[Glory drags all men along, low as well as high, bound captive at the wheels of her glittering car. [Lat., Fulgente trahit constrictos Gloria curru  Non minus ignotos generosis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We call a fig a fig, and a skiff a skiff. [Lat., Ficum vocamus ficum, et scapham scapham.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43648]]></link><description><![CDATA[We call a fig a fig, and a skiff a skiff. [Lat., Ficum vocamus ficum, et scapham scapham.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43648</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blow, blow, thou winter wind, Thou art not so unkind  As man's ingratitude:   Thy tooth is not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20897]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blow, blow, thou winter wind, Thou art not so unkind  As man's ingratitude:   Thy tooth is not so keen,    Because thou art not seen,     Although thy breath be rude.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is short, live it.
