But he could not read Latin, and so the Scriptures were a closed book to him. However, he hired two money-minded priests, who, in violation of strict regulations, translated the Bible for him into Provençal, the language of southern France. The content of the Word of God made such an impression upon this earnest man that he gave up his business, took upon himself a vow of poverty, and dedicated himself to the simple preaching of the contents of God's Word.  The Latin of the Church only mystified its hearers [but] Waldo's humble preaching edified the souls of men. His words were not spectacular but powerful, as he pleaded with them to repent. Much of his preaching and that of his followers consisted in reciting long passages of Scripture in the vernacular. Many of them could not afford an expensive handwritten copy of the Bible, and the ecclesiastical authorities could too easily rob them of such a book; but they could not erase the words which were treasured in the heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One half the world must sweat and groan that the other half may dream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12926]]></link><description><![CDATA[One half the world must sweat and groan that the other half may dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His tongue is now a stringless instrument; Words, life, and all, old Lancaster hath spent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56470]]></link><description><![CDATA[His tongue is now a stringless instrument; Words, life, and all, old Lancaster hath spent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jazz is the music of the body ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23128]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jazz is the music of the body]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a terrible way to lose.

In southern Indiana, most farmers wouldn't treat for it at all because there are very few corn rootworm larvae in that part of the state. In the moderate region in northeast and central Indiana, farmers may use soil insecticides or seed treatments for control. In the high pressure northwest corner of Indiana, most farmers use soil insecticides and some use seed treatments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A loaf of bread, the Walrus said, Is what we chiefly need:  Pepper and vinegar besides   Are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13180]]></link><description><![CDATA[A loaf of bread, the Walrus said, Is what we chiefly need:  Pepper and vinegar besides   Are very good indeed--    Now if you're ready, Oysters, dear,     We can begin to feed!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thy wish was father, Harry, to that thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51307]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thy wish was father, Harry, to that thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51307</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only safe ruler is he who has learned to obey willingly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44740]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only safe ruler is he who has learned to obey willingly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4613]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not only within its Laws but also within the Spirit of the Game.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do everything with a mind that lets go.
