For verily it is not deep words that make a man holy and upright; it is a good life which maketh a man dear to God. I had rather feel contrition than be skillful in the definition thereof. If thou knewest the whole Bible, and the sayings of all the philosophers, what should this profit thee without the love and grace of God?  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ April 11, 1996 Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  When an unskillful servant gathers many herbs, flowers, and seeds in a garden, you gather them out that are useful, and cast the rest out of sight; so Christ deals with our performances. All the ingredients of self that are in them He takes away, and adds incense to what remains, and presents it to God. This is the cause that the saints at the last day, when they meet their own duties and performances, know them not, they are so changed from what they were when they went out of their hand. "Lord, when saw we Thee naked or hungry?" So God accepts a little, and Christ makes our little a great deal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God sendeth cold after clothes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51918]]></link><description><![CDATA[God sendeth cold after clothes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Idle youth, a needy Age. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49120]]></link><description><![CDATA[An Idle youth, a needy Age.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It appears that most of the temporary housing ordered by FEMA has already been produced, but we expect to see ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40599]]></link><description><![CDATA[It appears that most of the temporary housing ordered by FEMA has already been produced, but we expect to see an increase in demand for our products as demand increases for manufactured homes in late 2006 and early 2007 due to the anticipated permanent rebuilding of the hurricane-stricken areas.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors, and I shall adopt new views so fast as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14147]]></link><description><![CDATA[I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors, and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two pillars of 'political correctness' are:a) willful ignoranceb) a steadfast refusal to face the truth ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20384]]></link><description><![CDATA[The two pillars of 'political correctness' are:a) willful ignoranceb) a steadfast refusal to face the truth]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the end we retain from our studies only that which we practically apply. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24559]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the end we retain from our studies only that which we practically apply.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1974]]></link><description><![CDATA[Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I cannot afford to waste my time making money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14588]]></link><description><![CDATA[I cannot afford to waste my time making money.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today I choose life.
