The way to keep it in peace is to enter into it by means of inward silence. When you see yourself more sharply assaulted, retreat into that region of peace; and you will find a fortress that will enable you to triumph over all your enemies, visible and invisible, and over all their snares and temptations. Within your own soul resides divine aid, and sovereign succour. Retreat within it, and all will be quiet, secure, peaceable, and calm. Thus, by means of mental silence, which can only be attained with divine help, you may look for tranquility in tumult: for solitude in company; for light in darkness; for forgetfulness in pressures: for vigour in despondency; for courage in fear; for resistance in temptation; and for quiet in tribulation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm careful not to give into theatrics when times are tough, I don't like it when somebody gives into outside ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48172]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm careful not to give into theatrics when times are tough, I don't like it when somebody gives into outside pressure and puts on a show for others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's health can be judged by which he takes two at a time -- pills or stairs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18937]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man's health can be judged by which he takes two at a time -- pills or stairs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our long-range goal, once we get high-school students off the yellow buses, is to start looking at adjusting the bell ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32808]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our long-range goal, once we get high-school students off the yellow buses, is to start looking at adjusting the bell time of elementary schools.
