Every act of goodwill permanently and sensibly increases goodwill. Trifling acts of goodwill are often more efficacious in this way than great ones. A flower given in kindness and at the right time profits more, both to giver and receiver, than some vast material benefit in which the goodwill is hidden by the magnitude of the act. Some little, sensible, individual touch from the hand of our Lord may convert the heart more than the contemplation of His death for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have some Jewish members of Congress, not a lot but there's a bunch of us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35301]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have some Jewish members of Congress, not a lot but there's a bunch of us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is never final and failure never fatal.
