If we are not fit to cope with that which He has prepared for us, we would have been utterly unfit for any condition that we imagine for ourselves. We are to live and wrestle in this time, and in no other. Let us humbly, tremblingly, manfully look at it, and we shall not wish that the sun could go back its ten degrees, or that we could go back with it. If easy times are departed, it is that the difficult times may make us more in earnest; that they may teach us not to depend on ourselves. If easy belief is impossible, it is that we may learn what belief is, and in whom it is to be placed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No written law has been more binding than unwritten custom supported by popular opinion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24257]]></link><description><![CDATA[No written law has been more binding than unwritten custom supported by popular opinion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24522]]></link><description><![CDATA[And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm just trying to make solid contact right there, and I got a slider over the plate and put the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32651]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm just trying to make solid contact right there, and I got a slider over the plate and put the barrel on it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32651</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an impressive crowd: the Have's and Have-more's.
