Poor, timorous, faithless souls that we are! How we shall smile at our vain alarms, when the worst has happened! To us here, death is the most terrible word we know. But when we have tasted its reality, it will mean to us birth, deliverance, a new creation of ourselves. It will be what health is to the sick man. It will be what home is to the exile. It will be what the loved one given back is to the bereaved. As we draw near to it, a great solemn gladness should fill our hearts. It is God's great morning lighting up the sky.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My angel,--his name is Freedom,-- Choose him to be your king;  He shall cut pathways east and west,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16680]]></link><description><![CDATA[My angel,--his name is Freedom,-- Choose him to be your king;  He shall cut pathways east and west,   And fend you with his wing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ye Gods! but she is wondrous fair! For me her constant flame appears;  The garland she hath culled, I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3836]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ye Gods! but she is wondrous fair! For me her constant flame appears;  The garland she hath culled, I wear   On brows bald since my thirty years.    Ye veils that deck my loved one rare,     Fall, for the crowning triumph's nigh.      Ye Gods! but she is wondrous fair!       And I, so plain a man am I!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas how difficult is it to preserve a high reputation! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas how difficult is it to preserve a high reputation!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Globalization is a fact of life.

For the system of those who, in order to rid themselves of difficulties, do not hesitate to concede that divine inspiration regards the things of faith and morals, and nothing beyond, because (as they wrongly think) in a question of the truth or falsehood of a passage, we should consider not so much what God has said as the reason and purpose which He had in mind in saying it--this system cannot be tolerated. For all the books which the Church receives as sacred and canonical, are written wholly and entirely, with all their parts, at the dictation of the Holy Ghost: and so far is it from being possible that any error can co-exist with inspiration, that inspiration not only is essentially incompatible with error, but excludes and rejects it as absolutely and necessarily as it is impossible that God Himself, the supreme Truth, can utter that which is not true.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sin writes histories, goodness is silent. [Ger., Das Uebel macht eine Geschichte und das Gute keine.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56383]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sin writes histories, goodness is silent. [Ger., Das Uebel macht eine Geschichte und das Gute keine.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56383</guid></item></channel></rss>
