It is enormously stimulating. It is small wonder that people who have been demanding all their lives to be heard so often fall speechless when confronted with one who gravely agrees to lend an ear. Man clamors for the freedom to express himself and for knowing that he counts. But once offered these conditions, he becomes frigthened. -Robert C.

But that would have been to Him just the one dreadful thing. That His Father should forget him! -- no power in Himself could make up for that. He feared nothing for Himself; and never once employed His divine power to save Himself from His human fate. Let God do that for Him if He saw fit. He did not come into the world to take care of Himself... His life was of no value to Him but as His Father cared for it. God would mind all that was necessary for Him, and He would mind the work His Father had given Him to do. And, my friends, this is just the one secret of a blessed life, the one thing every man comes into this world to learn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The unanimous decision upholds legislation passed eight years ago by lawmakers in British Columbia that allowed the province to seek ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35507]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The unanimous decision upholds legislation passed eight years ago by lawmakers in British Columbia that allowed the province to seek restitution for health care costs related to smoking for the last 50 years and for future costs.] We are very appreciative of this opportunity to hold the tobacco industry to account for its destructive products, ...
