Having themselves been emancipated from the superstitions and slavery of a false doctrine and a harsh ecclesiastical government, it would be thought most natural that the Reformers and those who followed them should promptly turn their attention to spreading these glad tidings among non-Christian peoples; but here a strange anomaly is found in the fact that there had been hardly any period, in the entire history of the Christian Church, so destitute of any concerted effort to spread the gospel in heathen lands [as] just this period of the Reformation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fools-to-free-the-world, they go, Primeval hearts from Buffalo.  Red cataracts of France to-day   Awake, three thousand miles away, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44501]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fools-to-free-the-world, they go, Primeval hearts from Buffalo.  Red cataracts of France to-day   Awake, three thousand miles away,    An echo of Niagara     The cataract of Niagara.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real "haves" are they who can acquire freedom, self-confidence, and even riches without depriving others of them.

They acquire all of these by developing and applying their potentialities. On the other hand, the real "have nots" are they who cannot have aught except by depriving others of it. They can feel free only by diminishing the freedom of others, self-confident by spreading fear and dependence among others, and rich by making others poor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man cannot go to Corinthum. [Lat., Non cuivis homini contingit adire Corinthum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8771]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man cannot go to Corinthum. [Lat., Non cuivis homini contingit adire Corinthum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64041]]></link><description><![CDATA[To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must set up a strong present tense against all rumors of wrath, past and to come. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54569]]></link><description><![CDATA[We must set up a strong present tense against all rumors of wrath, past and to come.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  Peace comes when there is no cloud between ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6537]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  Peace comes when there is no cloud between us and God.
