This method, though it seem such a small circumstance of life, would in all probability be a means of great piety. It would keep it constantly in your head, that softness and idleness were to be avoided, that self-denial was a part of Christianity... It would teach you to exercise power over yourself, and make you able by degrees to renounce other pleasures and tempers that war against the soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her time is about 4.33, which she's capable of. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57645]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her time is about 4.33, which she's capable of.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20028]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They didn't have a strong inside game, but their outside game was good.

First behold thyself diligently in the law of God, and see there thy just damnation. Secondarily, turn thine eyes to Christ, and see there the exceeding mercy of thy most kind and loving Father. Thirdly, remember that Christ made not this atonement that thou shouldest anger God again; neither cleansed he thee, that thou shouldest return (as a swine) unto thine old puddle again: but that thou shouldest be a new creature and live a new life after the will of God and not of the flesh. And be diligent lest through thine own negligence and unthankfulness thou lose this favor and mercy again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conductor, when you receive a fare, Punch in the presence of the passenjare.  A blue trip slip for an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conductor, when you receive a fare, Punch in the presence of the passenjare.  A blue trip slip for an eight-cent fare,   A buff trip slip for a six-cent fare,    A pink trip slip for a three-cent fare,     Punch in the presence of the passenjare!      Punch, brothers! punch with care!       Punch in the presence of the passenjare!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Come, now again, thy woes impart, Tell all thy sorrows, all thy sin;  We cannot heal the throbbing heart ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56380]]></link><description><![CDATA[Come, now again, thy woes impart, Tell all thy sorrows, all thy sin;  We cannot heal the throbbing heart   Will we discern the wounds within.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56380</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10708]]></link><description><![CDATA[A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons for his action.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No Church-yard is so handsom, that a man would desire straight to bee buried there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49648]]></link><description><![CDATA[No Church-yard is so handsom, that a man would desire straight to bee buried there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49648</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have noticed that what cats most appreciate in a human being is not the ability to produce food, which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26317]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have noticed that what cats most appreciate in a human being is not the ability to produce food, which they take for granted - but his or her entertainment value]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We think it is totally disrespectful of the local community, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31112]]></link><description><![CDATA[We think it is totally disrespectful of the local community,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It certainly looks like [new claims] have peaked.

But I loved them better and better -- and still I knew how little was my love for them compared to Christ's. It is easy enough for a man to be honest and a "Good Christian" and keeper of "the moral law", when he has his own little room, his purse well filled -- when he is well shod and well fed. It is far less easy for a man who has to live from day to day, roaming from city to city, from factory to factory. It is far less easy for someone just out of jail, with nothing to wear but old down-at-the-heels shoes and a shirt in rags. All of a sudden, I understood our Lord's words: "I was in prison ... and you visited me not." All these men, lazy, outside the law, starving: these failures of all kinds -- they were dear to Christ -- they were Christ, waiting in prison for someone to lean over Him -- and if we were true Christians, we would do them every kindness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes you see a person, and you wonder why you don't spend more time with that person, because they're like ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes you see a person, and you wonder why you don't spend more time with that person, because they're like one of your favorite people.
