Can anything be more detestable than this madness in man, who, finding God a hundred times both in his body and his soul, makes his excellence in this respect a pretext for denying that there is a God? He will not say that chance has made him different from the brutes; ... but, substituting Nature as the architect of the universe, he suppresses the name of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8059</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The clouds dispell'd, the sky resum'd her light, And Nature stood recover'd of her fright.  But fear, the last ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15507]]></link><description><![CDATA[The clouds dispell'd, the sky resum'd her light, And Nature stood recover'd of her fright.  But fear, the last of ills, remain'd behind,   And horrow heavy sat on every mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fine clothes are good only as they supply the want of other means of procuring respect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2742]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fine clothes are good only as they supply the want of other means of procuring respect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vote early and vote often. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61001]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vote early and vote often.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They said they'd pass the information on and they'd have it cleaned up.

Wherever, in any world, a soul, by free-willed obedience, catches the fire of God's likeness, it is set into the growing walls, a living stone. When, in your hard fight, in your tiresome drudgery, or in your terrible temptation, you catch the purpose of your being and give yourself to God, and so give Him the chance to give Himself to you, your life -- a living stone -- is taken up and set into that growing wall. Wherever souls are being tried and ripened, in whatever commonplace and homely ways, there God is hewing out the pillars for His temple. Oh, if the stone can only have some vision of the temple of which it is to be a part forever, what patience must fill it as it feels the blows of the hammer, and knows that success for it is simply to let itself be wrought into what shape the Master wills.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never make permanent decisions on temporary feelings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62989]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never make permanent decisions on temporary feelings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43289]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand.

But the investment was so big they felt compelled to go on. Since its completion, it cost a fortune to maintain and is still in danger of collapsing.
