How shall I praise th' eternal God,  That Infinite Unknown? Who can ascend his high abode,   Or venture near his throne? The great invisible! He dwells  Conceal'd in dazzling light: But his all-searching eye reveals  The secrets of the night. Those watchful eyes that never sleep,  Survey the world around; His wisdom is the boundless deep,  Where all our thoughts are drown'd.  He knows no shadow of a change,  Nor alters his decrees; Firm as a rock his truth remains,   To guard his promises.  Justice, upon a dreadful throne,  Maintains the rights of God; While mercy sends her pardons down,  Bought with a Saviour's blood. Now to my soul immortal King,   Speak some forgiving word; Then `twill be double joy to sing  The glories of my Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66020]]></link><description><![CDATA[You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Curiosity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Curiosity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26855]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65508]]></link><description><![CDATA[We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone in groups, alone in races, even alone in genders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't have no fear of death.

Now, once again may I ask you the question, Is the Church cruel when she points this out, and demands that men should see it and take account of it in all the arrangements of this life? Surely the cruelty lies with those who talk glibly about the brotherhood of man, and superficially about peace, and romantically about marriage, as though the disturbances in Church and state and family were introduced into human life by a few evil-minded men. This is the real cruelty. How will you face up later to your married life, to your administration of affairs, to your life in the Church, in fact to any real part of your lives, if you are taught to think that your neighbour will or ought to agree with you in all points, will accept your solutions of his problems, will in fact be a reflection of your image? Once we get this stuff and nonsense into our heads, we shall never be able to live with anyone or with any group of men. We shall sulk when we are crossed, or run away from the Other -- for Other they are. We shall certainly remove ourselves from the Church when we find it full of friction and yet proclaiming the love of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63681]]></link><description><![CDATA[A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in.
