But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow? What manner of evil is this, whereof he that is accused rejoiceth?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no way to peace, peace is the way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45853]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no way to peace, peace is the way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to wear out than to rust out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/501]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to wear out than to rust out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  Peace comes when there is no cloud between ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6537]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672  Peace comes when there is no cloud between us and God.

He must cease to be George, Hans, Ivan or Tadao- a human atom with an existence bounded by birth and death. The most drastic way to achieve this end is by complete assimilation of the individual into a collective body. The fully assimilated individual does not see himself and others as human beings. When asked who he is, his automatic response is that he is a German, a Russian, a Japanese, a Christian, a Moslem, a member of a certain tribe or family. He has no purpose, worth and destiny apart from his collective body; and as long as that body lives he cannot really die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are restless because of incessant change, but we would be frightened if change were stopped. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5558]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are restless because of incessant change, but we would be frightened if change were stopped.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I take to-day a wife, and my election Is led on in the conduct of my will--  My will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61606]]></link><description><![CDATA[I take to-day a wife, and my election Is led on in the conduct of my will--  My will enkindled my by mine and ears   Two traded pilots 'twixt the dangerous shores    Of will and judgment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The painful memories of the past will shape our future; the moments we cherish last forever in a beautiful array ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26986]]></link><description><![CDATA[The painful memories of the past will shape our future; the moments we cherish last forever in a beautiful array of remembrance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When angry, count to four.

The valiant Intellect went forth  To east and west and south and north, And found no trace of Him. We walked the world from sun to sun,  Logic and I, with little Faith,  But never came to Nazareth, Or found the Holy One. I sought in vain. And finally,  Back to the heart's small house I crept,  And fell upon my knees, and wept; And lo! -- He came to me!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Robin Hood could brave all weathers but a thaw wind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51020]]></link><description><![CDATA[Robin Hood could brave all weathers but a thaw wind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it.
