To say that we must wait for the other world, to know the mind of Him who came to this world to give Himself to us, seems to me the foolishness of a worldly and lazy spirit. The Son of God is the teacher of men, giving to them of His Spirit -- that Spirit which manifests the deep things of God, being to a man the mind of Christ. The great heresy of the Church of the present day is unbelief in this Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friend in need is a friend indeed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51064]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friend in need is a friend indeed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In those parts of the world where learning and science has prevailed, miracles have ceased; but in those parts of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34748]]></link><description><![CDATA[In those parts of the world where learning and science has prevailed, miracles have ceased; but in those parts of it as are barbarous and ignorant, miracles are still in vogue]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34748</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26593]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Paris a queer little man you may see, A little man all in gray;  Rosy and round as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9933]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Paris a queer little man you may see, A little man all in gray;  Rosy and round as an apple is he,   Content with the present whate'er it may be,    While from care and from cash he is equally free,     And merry both night and day!      "Ma foi!

Thus pride may seem to be nothing but a frame of mind belonging unto our wealth and dignity, or our ... abilities; sensuality may seem to be but a lawful participation of the good things of this life; passion and peevishness, but a due sense of the want of respect that we must suppose owing unto us; covetousness, a necessary care of ourselves and of our families. If the seeds of sin are covered with such pretences, they will in time spring up and bear bitter fruit in the minds and the lives of men; and the beginning of all apostasy, both in religion and in morality, lies in just such pretences. Men plead that they can do so-and-so lawfully, until they can do things openly unlawful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Knowledge is power.

The Holy Spirit supports our helplessness. Left to ourselves we do not know what prayers to offer or how to offer them. But in those inarticulate groans which rise from the depth of our being, we recognize the voice of none other than the Holy Spirit. He makes intercession; and His intercession is sure to be answered. For God Who searches the inmost recesses of the heart can interpret His own Spirit's meaning. He knows that His own Will regulates Its petitions, and that they are offered for men dedicated to His service.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children learn to smile from their parents. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15410]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children learn to smile from their parents.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66031]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The developers have to go back to the drawing board. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37008]]></link><description><![CDATA[The developers have to go back to the drawing board.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When Fortune flatters, she does it to betray. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16180]]></link><description><![CDATA[When Fortune flatters, she does it to betray.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Order is repetition of units.Chaos is multiplicity without rythm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45257]]></link><description><![CDATA[Order is repetition of units.Chaos is multiplicity without rythm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is much safer to obey, than to govern. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44731]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is much safer to obey, than to govern.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Indeed heresies are themselves instigated by philosophy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Indeed heresies are themselves instigated by philosophy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's been working hard over the winter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28195]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's been working hard over the winter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leave Him [God] out of our explanations, and the life of thought is decapitated...
