But thus much may we learn from these heathens, that if the dead, and we, be not upon one floor, nor under one story, yet we are under one roof. We think not a friend lost, because he has gone into another room, nor because he has gone into another land: and into another world, no man has gone; for that Heaven, which God created, and this world, is all one world... I spend none of my faith, I exercise none of my hope, in this, that I shall have my dead raised to life again. This is the faith that sustains me, when I lose by the death of others, or when I suffer by living in misery myself: that the dead and we are now all in one Church, and at the resurrection, shall be all in one Choir.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When all is done, there is no such error or heresy, nothing so fundamentally opposed to religion, as a wicked ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7178]]></link><description><![CDATA[When all is done, there is no such error or heresy, nothing so fundamentally opposed to religion, as a wicked life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a guilty conscience behind every brazen word and act and behind every manifestation of self-righteousness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52310]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a guilty conscience behind every brazen word and act and behind every manifestation of self-righteousness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart was made to be broken ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58188]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart was made to be broken]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not consider it an insult, but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic.

TheChrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,who then saw for the first time that it was alive. Poor, pitiableanimal! cried the Ant disdainfully. What a sad fate is yours!While I can run hither and thither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish,ascend the tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, withpower only to move a joint or two of your scaly tail. The Chrysalisheard all this, but did not try to make any reply. A few days after,when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained.Wondering what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenlyshaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful Butterfly.Behold in me, said the Butterfly, your much-pitied friend! Boastnow of your powers to run and climb as long as you can get me tolisten. So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne alongand aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of theAnt forever.Appearances are deceptive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been spoiled.
