This is extremely difficult for us, because Jesus was careful to give men no external guarantee that he was, in fact, God in the flesh. Otherwise, he realized, we would not be worshipping him, but would only be worshipping or trusting in the guarantee, whatever it might be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ruthlessness born of self-seeking is ineffectual compared with the ruthlessness sustained by dedication to a holy cause.

It was slow in operation, being little aided by invention or imagination, but sure in conclusion.... Perhaps the strongest feature in his character was prudence, never acting until every circumstance, every consideration, was maturely weighed; refraining if he saw doubt, but, when once decided, going through his purpose, whatever obstacles opposed. His integrity was the most pure, his justice the most inflexible I have ever known.... He was, indeed, in every sense of the words, a wise, a good and a great man ... On the whole, his character was, in its mass, perfect ... it may truly be said, that never did nature and fortune combine more perfectly to make a man great....]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All for Our Country ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43273]]></link><description><![CDATA[All for Our Country]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You hate someone whom you really wish to love, but whom you cannot love.
