Why, would the same not be possible to a good will? Yes, indeed, and even much more so. Surely, I can do all things with the will. I can bear the sorrow of all men and feed all the poor and do the work of all men and whatever else you may think of. If it be not the will that fails you, but only the power, then truly, before God, you have done it all, and no man can take it from you or even hinder you for a moment; for to will to do as soon as I can is the same before God as having done it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't expect a mean-spirited, mudslinging race.

What distinguishes the handling of these values in the churches is mainly the heavier dosage of religious vocabulary involved... Another way of putting this is to say that the churches operate with secular values while the secular institutions are permeated with religious terminology... An objective observer is hard put to tell the difference (at least in terms of values affirmed) between the church members and those who maintain an 'unchurched' status. Usually the most that can be said is that the church members hold the same values as everybody else, but with more emphatic solemnity. Thus, church membership in no way means adherence to a set of values at variance with those of the general society; rather, it means a stronger and more explicitly religious affirmation of the same values held by the community at large.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What thin partitions sense from thought divide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55108]]></link><description><![CDATA[What thin partitions sense from thought divide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a child, one looks for compliments.
