For those who busy themselves to know the will of God, however, it is still true that "those who want to save their life will lose it." My extreme preoccupation with knowing God's will for me may only indicate, contrary to what is often thought, that I am overconcerned with myself, not a Christlike interest in the well-being of others or in the glory of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Genius, like humanity, rusts for want of use. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17321]]></link><description><![CDATA[Genius, like humanity, rusts for want of use.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The United States presents itself as a leader against terrorism, invades countries, restricts the civil rights of Americans in order ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30101]]></link><description><![CDATA[The United States presents itself as a leader against terrorism, invades countries, restricts the civil rights of Americans in order to fight terrorism, but when it is about its own terrorists, it denies that they be tried.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all tattooed in our cradles with the beliefs of our tribe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58365]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are all tattooed in our cradles with the beliefs of our tribe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624  The [Christian] "doctrines" are translations into our concepts and ideas of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624  The [Christian] "doctrines" are translations into our concepts and ideas of that which God has already expressed in language more adequate, namely the actual incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lord, before I commit a sin, it seems to me so shallow that I may wade through it dry-shod from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lord, before I commit a sin, it seems to me so shallow that I may wade through it dry-shod from any guiltiness; but when I have committed it, it often seems so deep that I cannot escape without drowning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The guilty are alarmed and turn pale at the slightest thunder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50499]]></link><description><![CDATA[The guilty are alarmed and turn pale at the slightest thunder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This glorious raid, like the others before it in New York, Washington and Madrid, has moved our battle right to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29809]]></link><description><![CDATA[This glorious raid, like the others before it in New York, Washington and Madrid, has moved our battle right to the enemy's doorstep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be gentle to all and stern with yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rainy days a man saves for usually seem to arrive during his vacation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60315]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rainy days a man saves for usually seem to arrive during his vacation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just needed to find a way to win.
