Why, would the same not be possible to a good will? Yes, indeed, and even much more so. Surely, I can do all things with the will. I can bear the sorrow of all men and feed all the poor and do the work of all men and whatever else you may think of. If it be not the will that fails you, but only the power, then truly, before God, you have done it all, and no man can take it from you or even hinder you for a moment; for to will to do as soon as I can is the same before God as having done it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing lowers the level on conversation more than raising the voice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27699]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing lowers the level on conversation more than raising the voice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As one who loves literature, art, music and history, I've been deeply rooted in the Harlem Renaissance for many years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33325]]></link><description><![CDATA[As one who loves literature, art, music and history, I've been deeply rooted in the Harlem Renaissance for many years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't even know their last name, but we know they have lost everything, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42181]]></link><description><![CDATA[We don't even know their last name, but we know they have lost everything,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Scholastica, Abbess of Plombariola, c.543  Since becoming a disciple of Christ, Paul knows that all mere orthodoxy, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Scholastica, Abbess of Plombariola, c.543  Since becoming a disciple of Christ, Paul knows that all mere orthodoxy, all mere knowledge concerning God's will, is not only nothing but less than nothing. The more knowledge, the more obligation. The maintaining of revealed doctrine becomes blasphemy if it is not borne out by the corresponding testimony of the life. He who is always appealing to the Word of God without his life and conduct corresponding to this knowledge of God, dishonours God's name, making Him an object of mockery and hatred. It is just those who know so well how to talk about God who make His name hateful among men, because their lives darken the picture of God and turn it into a caricature. The Lord is judged by the life of His servants; this is the truer, the more zealously they appeal to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What garlic is to food, insanity is to art. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28090]]></link><description><![CDATA[What garlic is to food, insanity is to art.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since Eve ate the apple, much depends on dinner. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27761]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since Eve ate the apple, much depends on dinner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Know thyself. [Lat., Ne quis nimis.

For to seek for eminence and significancy in grace is but like seeking for eminence and significancy in nature. And the old man can relish glory and distinction in religion as well as in common life, and will be content to undergo as many labours, pains, and self-denials for the sake of religious, as for the sake of secular glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we put all this on the menu, it would look like all the other places where you have to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33302]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we put all this on the menu, it would look like all the other places where you have to squint to read it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though throned in highest bliss Equal to God, and equally enjoying  God-like fruition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13926]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though throned in highest bliss Equal to God, and equally enjoying  God-like fruition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your capacity to acquire has outstripped your capacity to enjoy, you are on the way to the scrap-heap. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13948]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your capacity to acquire has outstripped your capacity to enjoy, you are on the way to the scrap-heap.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13948</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a wretched thing to rest upon the fame of others, lest, the supporting pillar being removed, the superstructure ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50458]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a wretched thing to rest upon the fame of others, lest, the supporting pillar being removed, the superstructure should collapse in ruin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wealth is well known to be a great comforter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61444]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wealth is well known to be a great comforter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fanatic is incorruptible: if he kills for an idea, he can just as well get himself killed for one; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15264]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fanatic is incorruptible: if he kills for an idea, he can just as well get himself killed for one; in either case, tyrant or martyr, he is a monster.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved, just to love and be loved. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34246]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved, just to love and be loved.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To work in the world lovingly means that we are defining what we will be for, rather than reacting to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24457]]></link><description><![CDATA[To work in the world lovingly means that we are defining what we will be for, rather than reacting to what we are against. -Christina Baldwin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, I'm rather happy to say-it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34295]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, I'm rather happy to say-it leaves me something to do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The son of Saturn gave The nod with his dark brows.

They have Christ, they have God, and they are satisfied. There can be no monotony in the contemplation and worship of the Infinite. Their great possession is unchangeable, but also inexhaustible; no change is possible where all is love and truth. The centre of the heavenly life is fixed and immovable, but the circumference may ever be advancing towards the centre, the saints may ever be drawing nearer and nearer to the goal which they can never reach. There may be progress in knowledge, progress in enjoyment, progress in service -- a progress which at every point will open up new wonders, new opportunities, new outlooks into a greater future, and as that future unfolds itself, new and unexpected scopes for the energies of redeemed men, new ways of fellowship with God in Christ, new companionships with the good and great of past generations, and with angelic beings who have watched and guarded us in life, and rejoiced over our repentance, and are ready to welcome us into the eternal mansions, and will share our worship and our work, our service and our joy, in the ages to come.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justin reminds me of Jim Brown in that he's real lazy getting out of the huddle and getting to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justin reminds me of Jim Brown in that he's real lazy getting out of the huddle and getting to the line, then all of the sudden he's gone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the distance of the earth from the sun, nor the sun's withdrawing itself, that makes a dark ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8057]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the distance of the earth from the sun, nor the sun's withdrawing itself, that makes a dark and gloomy day; but the interposition of clouds and vaporous exhalations.
