Never mind if it all seems for the time very second-hand. The less you get out of it, the nearer it approaches to being something worth offering; and the humiliation of not being able to feel as devout as we want to be, is excellent for most of us. Use vocal prayer... very slowly, trying to realize the meaning with which it is charged and remember that... you are only a unit in the Chorus of the Church, so that the others will make good the shortcomings you cannot help.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I throw the ball ninety-two miles an hour, but they hit it back just as hard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38010]]></link><description><![CDATA[I throw the ball ninety-two miles an hour, but they hit it back just as hard.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We try not to make it too difficult for them, ...

If anyone said it was unsuitable for the man's power to be in the toe, he would be thought silly, because, while granting that a man penetrates and actuates the whole of his body, he denied his presence in the part.

It is often the one blot on an otherwise noble character. You know men who are all but perfect, and women who would be entirely perfect, but for an easily ruffled, quick-tempered, or "touchy" disposition. This compatibility of ill temper with high moral character is one of the strangest and saddest problems of ethics... No form of vice -- not worldliness, not greed of gold, not drunkenness itself -- does more to unChristianize society than evil temper. For embittering life, for breaking up communities, for destroying the most sacred relationships, for devastating homes, for withering up men and women, for taking the bloom off of childhood -- in short, for sheer, gratuitous misery-producing power -- this influence stands alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the old armchair quarterback theory, that a fan can be a better coach, better owner than the guy in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36062]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's the old armchair quarterback theory, that a fan can be a better coach, better owner than the guy in the owner's box.
