For to seek for eminence and significancy in grace is but like seeking for eminence and significancy in nature. And the old man can relish glory and distinction in religion as well as in common life, and will be content to undergo as many labours, pains, and self-denials for the sake of religious, as for the sake of secular glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When it draws near to witching time of night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44517]]></link><description><![CDATA[When it draws near to witching time of night.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The Stones] thought nothing of ... music, golf, football and girls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29290]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The Stones] thought nothing of ... music, golf, football and girls.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51940]]></link><description><![CDATA[The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of man; and if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man will understand how intimately, yea, how inseparably, self-control and happiness are associated, he has but to look ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37022]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man will understand how intimately, yea, how inseparably, self-control and happiness are associated, he has but to look into his own heart, and upon the world around,...Looking upon the lives of men and women, he will perceive how the hasty word, the bitter retort, the act of deception, the blind prejudice and foolish resentment bring wretchedness and even ruin in their train.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A rolling stone gathers no moss, but it gains a certain polish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66865]]></link><description><![CDATA[A rolling stone gathers no moss, but it gains a certain polish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dear Land to which Desire forever flees; Time doth no present to our grasp allow,  Say in the fixed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17081]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dear Land to which Desire forever flees; Time doth no present to our grasp allow,  Say in the fixed Eternal shall we seize   At last the fleeting Now?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is not getting, but giving.

No, here was a sequence of great character and emancipated spirit, all attached to and explained by such a personality as the world never saw; and the central doctrine of the risen Christ squared with the rationality and the goodness of God... The wise said that God and the godlike could have no contact with suffering, but Jesus was no phantom feigning to be crucified; he truly suffered on the cross, he truly rose. Suffering is a language all can understand, and none can quite exhaust; and the suffering Christ, victorious over pain and death, meant for all who grasped his significance a new faith in God, a new freedom of mind in God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first half of life consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13953]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first half of life consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is the fire in which we burn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27694]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is the fire in which we burn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."N.

Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To go where the King goes afoot (i.e. to the stool). ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50006]]></link><description><![CDATA[To go where the King goes afoot (i.e. to the stool).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50006</guid></item></channel></rss>
