So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its flavor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens [reveals] God when a man's mind works that way; things all have this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With life many things are remedied. (While there's life there's hope.)  [Sp., Con la vida muchas cosas se remedian.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19772]]></link><description><![CDATA[With life many things are remedied. (While there's life there's hope.)  [Sp., Con la vida muchas cosas se remedian.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Suffer all, and conquer all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Suffer all, and conquer all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least triviality that happens to us, and yet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least triviality that happens to us, and yet not good enough to recollect how often we have told it to the same person?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Franklin Roosevelt stands like a sharply formed rock in a shapeless sea.spoken on Book TV by a Jackson biographer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18015]]></link><description><![CDATA[Franklin Roosevelt stands like a sharply formed rock in a shapeless sea.spoken on Book TV by a Jackson biographer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18015</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him discover it in himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27006]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him discover it in himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people would rather die than think: many do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people would rather die than think: many do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well!
