If I were to give it to you, you would think yourself of some importance, you would fancy that you had gained something very great. Because you asked for it, you have it. But take care to make good use of it. Before you had it, you were humble; now that you have begun to be rich you despise the poor. What kind of a good is that which only makes you worse? For worse you are, since you were bad already. And that it would make you worse you knew not; hence you asked it of Me. I gave it to you, and I proved you; you have found -- and you have found out! Ask of Me better things than these, greater things than these. Ask of Me spiritual things. Ask of Me Myself!".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2798]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859   To excuse what can really produce good excuses is not Christian ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8494]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859   To excuse what can really produce good excuses is not Christian charity; it is only fairness. To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you. This is hard. It is perhaps not so hard to forgive a single injury. But to forgive the incessant provocations of daily life -- to keep on forgiving the bossy mother-in-law, the bullying husband, the nagging wife, the selfish daughter, the deceitful son -- how can we do it? Only, I think, by remembering where we stand, by meaning our words when we say in our prayers each night, "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." We are offered forgiveness on no other terms. To refuse it means to refuse God's mercy for ourselves. There is no hint of exceptions and God means what He says.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This case has had full analyzation and has been looked at alot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47581]]></link><description><![CDATA[This case has had full analyzation and has been looked at alot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Have regard to the end. [Lat., Finem respice (or Respice finem).] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13778]]></link><description><![CDATA[Have regard to the end. [Lat., Finem respice (or Respice finem).]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The power to tax involves the power to destroy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58675]]></link><description><![CDATA[The power to tax involves the power to destroy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I, of ladies most deject and wretched, That sucked the honey of his music vows,  Now see that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4128]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I, of ladies most deject and wretched, That sucked the honey of his music vows,  Now see that noble and most sovereign reason   Like sweet bells jangled, out of time and harsh,    That unmatched form and feature of blown youth     Blasted with ecstasy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our deeds disguise us.
