It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.   ... Maltbie D. Babcock August 7, 2000 Commemoration of John Mason Neale, Priest, Poet, 1866   For all the vigour of his polemic, St. Paul does not content himself with the denunciation of error, but finds the best defense against its insidious approaches in a closer adherence to the love of God and faith in Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make a dream come true? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12922]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make a dream come true?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that repaires not a part, builds all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49475]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that repaires not a part, builds all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The initial reaction is being surprised and pleased.

With the exception of the book of Daniel, which the Jews themselves never classed among the prophecies, and an obscure text of Jeremiah, there is not a passage in all the Old Testament which favours the notion of a temporal Messiah. What moral object was there, for which such a Messiah should come? What could he have been but a sort of virtuous Napoleon?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If more of us valued food and cheer and song above
