Irving teaches me the lesson of cheerfulness, Hawthorne shows me the hatefulness of sin, Longfellow gives me the soft, tranquil music of hope. Lowell makes us feel that we must give ourselves to our fellow men. Whittier sings to me of divine Fatherhood and human brotherhood. These are Christian lessons: who inspired them? Who put it into the heart of Martin Luther to nail those theses on the church door of Wittenberg? Who stirred and fired the soul of Savonarola? Who thrilled and electrified the soul of John Wesley? Jesus Christ is back of these all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The superior man thinks only of virtue; the common man thinks only ofcomfort. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22736]]></link><description><![CDATA[The superior man thinks only of virtue; the common man thinks only ofcomfort.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three fishers went sailing away to the west, Away to the west as the sun went down;  Each thought ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16079]]></link><description><![CDATA[Three fishers went sailing away to the west, Away to the west as the sun went down;  Each thought on the woman who loved him the best,   And the children stood watching them out of the town.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people s ofull of doubts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Communism is in conflict with human nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9085]]></link><description><![CDATA[Communism is in conflict with human nature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9085</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26217]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm the best.
