These are my sentiments; and every day of my life, I bless my Redeemer, who has implanted them in me, and who, out of a man full of weakness, of miseries, of lust, of pride, and of ambition, has made a man free from all these evils by the power of His grace, to which all the glory of it is due, as of myself I have only misery and error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe that you're young enough, old enough, strong enough, and so on to accomplish everything you want to do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65549]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe that you're young enough, old enough, strong enough, and so on to accomplish everything you want to do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While we are free to choose our actions, we are not free to choose the consequences of our actions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9831]]></link><description><![CDATA[While we are free to choose our actions, we are not free to choose the consequences of our actions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This team has great team chemistry.
