For when we kneel and cast our care Upon our God in humble prayer,   With strengthened souls we rise, Sure that our Father Who is nigh, To hear the ravens when they cry,   Will hear His children's cries. O may these anxious hearts of ours The lesson learn from birds and flowers,   And learn from self to cease, Leave all things to our Father's will, And in His mercy trusting still,   Find in each trial peace!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Endurance is patience concentrated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Endurance is patience concentrated.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who would have the kernel must crack the shell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50868]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who would have the kernel must crack the shell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This would be the biggest pipeline built in the last 20 years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37785]]></link><description><![CDATA[This would be the biggest pipeline built in the last 20 years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At Marquis Jets, we carefully vet our partners to ensure that we only align ourselves with the finest brands, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39849]]></link><description><![CDATA[At Marquis Jets, we carefully vet our partners to ensure that we only align ourselves with the finest brands, and Grand Isle Villas provides the comfort and service that our owners have come to expect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It ain't ignorance that causes all the trouble in this world.

A plausible form of an outward life, that has only learned rules and modes of religion by use and custom, often keeps the soul for some time at ease, though all its inward root and ground of sin has never been shaken or molested, though it has never tasted of the bitter waters of repentance and has only known the want of a Saviour by hearsay. But things cannot pass thus: sooner or later repentance must have a broken and a contrite heart; we must with our blessed Lord go over the brook Cedron, and with Him sweat great drops of sorrow before He can say for us, as He said for Himself: "It is finished.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The end must justify the means. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13787]]></link><description><![CDATA[The end must justify the means.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No power or virtue of man could ever have deserved that what has been fated should not have taken place. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15372]]></link><description><![CDATA[No power or virtue of man could ever have deserved that what has been fated should not have taken place. [Lat., Nulla vis humana vel virtus meruisse unquam potuit, ut, quod praescripsit fatalis ordo, non fiat.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He told me that bin Laden is saying to President Clinton that the battle has not started yet and they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28231]]></link><description><![CDATA[He told me that bin Laden is saying to President Clinton that the battle has not started yet and they will answer these raids with actions, not words.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24670]]></link><description><![CDATA[In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were playing hardball and almost twisting their arm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33020]]></link><description><![CDATA[We were playing hardball and almost twisting their arm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't want our secondary to be known as just a bunch of cover guys. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34079]]></link><description><![CDATA[We don't want our secondary to be known as just a bunch of cover guys.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Days that need borrow No part of their good morrow,  From a fore-spent night of sorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11136]]></link><description><![CDATA[Days that need borrow No part of their good morrow,  From a fore-spent night of sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No sooner is a Temple built to God but the Devill builds a Chappell hard by. [No sooner is a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8677]]></link><description><![CDATA[No sooner is a Temple built to God but the Devill builds a Chappell hard by. [No sooner is a Temple built to God but the Devil builds a chapel hard by.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some books are to be tasted; others swallowed; and some to be chewed and digested. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some books are to be tasted; others swallowed; and some to be chewed and digested.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My family and I sat down and discussed this.

But this was not the issue, quite. In this case the choice was between being a good Methodist and a good American, and being a tribal religionist. But the theological problem of churches without discipline comes into stark outline in the quotation. Inadequately trained for membership, admitted without preparatory training, without the proper instruments of voluntary discipline, many members have never had the discontinuity between life in Christ and life in the world brought home to them. Here the ordinary members are less at fault than the leadership of the churches, who -- though sworn to uphold the form of sound words and doctrine -- neglect catechetical instruction and concentrate solely on the acquisition of more new members at any price.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tom Goodwin was an actor-man, Old Drury's pride and boast,  In all the light and spritely parts,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/435]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tom Goodwin was an actor-man, Old Drury's pride and boast,  In all the light and spritely parts,   Especially the ghost.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The devil never tempts us with more success than when he tempts us with a sight of our own good ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6277]]></link><description><![CDATA[The devil never tempts us with more success than when he tempts us with a sight of our own good actions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business leaders often get credit for the successful decisions that were forced on them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11632]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business leaders often get credit for the successful decisions that were forced on them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why do grandparents and grandchildren get along so well?
