There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66914]]></link><description><![CDATA[All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To accept good advice is but to increase one's own ability ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/763]]></link><description><![CDATA[To accept good advice is but to increase one's own ability]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54268]]></link><description><![CDATA[I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two souls, alas! reside within my breast, and each withdraws from and repels its brother. [Ger., Zwei Seelen wohnen, ach! ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two souls, alas! reside within my breast, and each withdraws from and repels its brother. [Ger., Zwei Seelen wohnen, ach! in meiner Brust,  Die eine will sich von der andern trennen.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never forget that a half truth is a whole lie. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never forget that a half truth is a whole lie.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Energetic action on debt would make a radical difference to the prospects of many of the poorest countries in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Energetic action on debt would make a radical difference to the prospects of many of the poorest countries in the world, at no practical cost to creditor countries.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When last the young Orlando parted from you, He left a promise to return again  Within a hour; and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15288]]></link><description><![CDATA[When last the young Orlando parted from you, He left a promise to return again  Within a hour; and pacing through the forest,   Chewing the food of sweet and bitter fancy,    Lo, what befell!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essence of immorality is the tendency to make an exception of myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37165]]></link><description><![CDATA[The essence of immorality is the tendency to make an exception of myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37165</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54735]]></link><description><![CDATA[Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bearing His cross, while Christ passed forth forlorn, His God-like forehead by the mock crown torn,  A little bird ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54339]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bearing His cross, while Christ passed forth forlorn, His God-like forehead by the mock crown torn,  A little bird took from that crown one thorn.   To soothe the dear Redeemer's throbbing head,    That bird did what she could; His blood, 'tis said,     Down dropping, dyed her tender bosom red.      Since then no wanton boy disturbs her nest;       Weasel nor wild cat will her young molest;        All sacred deem the bird of ruddy breast.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why have we given George W.
