Life is supplied with a basic adequacy... The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions; and the reactions are just as important as the actions. Many Christians are Christians in their actions -- they don't lie, steal, commit adultery, or get drunk; but they react badly to what happens to them: they react in anger, bad temper, self-pity, jealousy, and envy... When the depths are upheld by the Holy Spirit, then the reaction is Christian.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old Dublin City there is no doubtin' Bates every city upon the say.  'Tis there you'd hear O'Connell spoutin' ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old Dublin City there is no doubtin' Bates every city upon the say.  'Tis there you'd hear O'Connell spoutin'   And Lady Morgan making tay.    For 'tis the capital of the finest nation,     With charmin' pisintry upon a fruitful sod,      Fightin' like devils for conciliation,       And hatin' each other for the Love of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But all was false and hollow; though his tongue Dropt manna, and could make the worse appear  The better ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53099]]></link><description><![CDATA[But all was false and hollow; though his tongue Dropt manna, and could make the worse appear  The better reason, to perplex and dash   Maturest counsels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heap on more wood! the wind is chill! But let it whistle as it will,  We'll keep up Christmas ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51091]]></link><description><![CDATA[Heap on more wood! the wind is chill! But let it whistle as it will,  We'll keep up Christmas merry still.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You will never "find" time for anything.

He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention. It did not scrap the Constitution and allow the president to do whatever he pleased in any area in the name of fighting terrorism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every countenance seeked to say, "Long live George Washington, the Father of the People." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every countenance seeked to say, "Long live George Washington, the Father of the People."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the essence ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14186]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the essence]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As iron is eaten away by rust, so the envious are consumed by their own passion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14044]]></link><description><![CDATA[As iron is eaten away by rust, so the envious are consumed by their own passion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The spinsters and the knitters in the sun And the free maids that weave their thread with bones Do use ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55751]]></link><description><![CDATA[The spinsters and the knitters in the sun And the free maids that weave their thread with bones Do use to chant it: it is silly sooth, And dallies with the innocence of love, Like the old age. -Twelfth Night.
