But just before a race starts you always get a little nervous anyway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Remigius, Bishop of Rheims, Apostle of the Franks, 533 Commemoration of Thérèse of Lisieux, Carmelite Nun, Spiritual Writer, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7583]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Remigius, Bishop of Rheims, Apostle of the Franks, 533 Commemoration of Thérèse of Lisieux, Carmelite Nun, Spiritual Writer, 1897  Most of our conflicts and difficulties come from trying to deal with the spiritual and practical aspects of our life separately instead of realizing them as parts of one whole. If our practical life is centered on our own interests, cluttered up by possessions, distracted by ambitions, passions, wants and worries, beset by a sense of our own rights and importance, or anxieties for our own future, or longings for our own success, we need not expect that our spiritual life will be a contrast to all this. The soul's house is not built on such a convenient plan; there are few soundproof partitions in it. Only when the conviction -- not merely the idea -- that the demand of the Spirit, however inconvenient, rules the whole of it, will those objectionable noises die down which have a way of penetrating into the nicely furnished little oratory and drowning all the quieter voices by their din.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in To saucy doubts and fears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12762]]></link><description><![CDATA[But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in To saucy doubts and fears.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To make one good action succeed another, is the perfection of goodness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1232]]></link><description><![CDATA[To make one good action succeed another, is the perfection of goodness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A child's attitude toward everything is an artist's attitude. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3456]]></link><description><![CDATA[A child's attitude toward everything is an artist's attitude.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you look closely people are so strange & so complicated that they're actually beautiful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3818]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you look closely people are so strange & so complicated that they're actually beautiful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evildoers delight in hiding themselves; shun appearing; are bewildered when discovered; being accused, deny; not even when tortured, readily or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6796]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evildoers delight in hiding themselves; shun appearing; are bewildered when discovered; being accused, deny; not even when tortured, readily or always confess; certainly mourn when condemned; sum up against themselves, impute either to fate or to the stars the impulses of a wicked mind; for they will not have that to be their own, which they acknowledge to be evil. But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow? What manner of evil is this, whereof he that is accused rejoiceth?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lord, Lord! methought, what pain it was to drown!

What dreadful noise of waters in mine ears! What ugly sights of death within mine eyes!
