And men see his good works, and admire them in spite of themselves, and see that they are God-like, and that God's grace is no dream, but that the Holy Spirit is still among men, and that all nobleness and manliness is His gift, His stamp, His picture: and so they get a glimpse of God again in His saints and heroes, and glorify their Father who is in heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love the medium of photography, for with its unique realism it gives me the power to go beyond conventional ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46562]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love the medium of photography, for with its unique realism it gives me the power to go beyond conventional ways of seeing and understanding and say, "This is real, too."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of course all advance depends upon money, when we depend upon paid workers for any advance.

Teach men as one of their first lessons in the gospel that pastoral work and evangelistic work ought to be paid, and will they not believe it? They would all believe it if the Holy Ghost did not dispute our teaching. It is a powerful proof of the presence and grace of the Holy Ghost that they do not all believe it and act accordingly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have executed the will of God and the rule of law because he killed people, ordered assaults on fighters ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28322]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have executed the will of God and the rule of law because he killed people, ordered assaults on fighters and he had a big file of corruption.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All married women are not wives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61567]]></link><description><![CDATA[All married women are not wives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A goodly apple rotten at the heart: O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath! -The Merchant of Venice.

At first sight, it may seem that they have only to proclaim and declare; but in fact, if their words are to enter men's hearts and bear fruit, they must be the right words, shaped cunningly to pass men's defenses and explode silently and effectually within their minds. This means, in practice, turning a face of flint toward the easy cliche, the well-worn religious cant and phraseology -- dear, no doubt, to the faithful, but utterly meaningless to those outside the fold. It means learning how people are thinking and how they are feeling; it means learning with patience, imagination and ingenuity the way to pierce apathy or blank lack of understanding. I sometimes wonder what hours of prayer and thought lie behind the apparently simple and spontaneous parables of the Gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I went to see a band in New York.
