That hope alone explains the Book, giving meaning and consistency to its story. Was it a chimera, an hallucination? According to the prophecy of Micah, the messianic Shepherd of Israel had to be born in Bethlehem. It is unthinkable that an heir to the throne of David could be born in Bethlehem now, and be also able to prove his legitimacy by documentary evidence. The event must clearly have taken place already, or Micah is a false prophet, a raiser of false hopes, along with the other writers in the Old Testament.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows the public opinion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11608]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows the public opinion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's good tying the sack before it be full. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49577]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's good tying the sack before it be full.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Renowned Spenser, lie a thought more nigh To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lie  A little nearer Spenser, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Renowned Spenser, lie a thought more nigh To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lie  A little nearer Spenser, to make room   For Shakespeare in your threefold, fourfold tomb.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The impact will be very minimal.

The old man told him that he worshipped the fire only, and acknowledged no other God. At which answer Abraham grew so zealously angry, that he threw the old man out of his tent, and exposed him to all the evils of the night and an unguarded condition. When the old man was gone, God called to Abraham, and asked him where the stranger was. He replied, "I thrust him away, because he did not worship thee." God answered him, "I have suffered him these hundred years, though he dishonoured me; and wouldst thou not endure him one night?".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The low'ring element Scowls o'er the darken'd landscape. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8914]]></link><description><![CDATA[The low'ring element Scowls o'er the darken'd landscape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even though I never did an evil deed, yet, if I have the will to do evil, I have the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even though I never did an evil deed, yet, if I have the will to do evil, I have the sin as if I had done the deed; and I could, by a total will, do as great a sin as if I had killed the whole world, though I never actually did anything. 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[Original thoughts can be understood only in virtue of the unoriginal elements which they contain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Original thoughts can be understood only in virtue of the unoriginal elements which they contain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Basically, as far as I'm concerned (the petition) is coming out of a racist response. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31442]]></link><description><![CDATA[Basically, as far as I'm concerned (the petition) is coming out of a racist response.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hear the mellow wedding bells, Golden bells!  What a world of happiness their harmony foretells   Through the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4123]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hear the mellow wedding bells, Golden bells!  What a world of happiness their harmony foretells   Through the balmy air of night    How they ring out their delight!     From the molten golden notes,      And all in tune       What a liquid ditty floats        To the turtle-dove that listens while she gloats         On the moon!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kisses: Words which cannot be written. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kisses: Words which cannot be written.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world,  And rouse ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45616]]></link><description><![CDATA[O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world,  And rouse from sleep that fell anatomy   Which cannot hear a lady's feeble voice,    Which scorns a modern invocation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has a firm will molds the world to himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61611]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has a firm will molds the world to himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31109]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and paths in parks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15660]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15660</guid></item></channel></rss>
