We have to find that deep contrition which is the condition of His abiding. Repentance is not a mere feeling of sorrow or contrition for an act of wrongdoing. The regret I feel when I act impatiently or speak crossly is not repentance... Repentance is contrition for what we are in our fundamental beings, that we are wrong in our deepest roots because our internal government is by Self and not by God. And it is an activity of the whole person. Unless I will to be different, the mind will not follow. True repentance brings an urge to be different, because of the sense of the incessant movement of what I am, forming, forming, forming what I shall be in the years to come.   ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  January 11, 1996 Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915   Every virtue is a form of obedience to God. Every evil word or act is a form of rebellion against Him. This may not be clear at first; but, if we think patiently, we shall find that it is true. Why were you angry? You will probably find that it was because you were not willing to accept the world as God has made it, or because you were not willing to leave it to God to deal with the people that He has made.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two sparrows on one Ear of Corn make an ill agreement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50026]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two sparrows on one Ear of Corn make an ill agreement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some mute, inglorious Milton here may rest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48991]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some mute, inglorious Milton here may rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us permit nature to have her way.

It was "sin brought death into the world and all our woe"; as the sin vanishes the woe will vanish too. God Himself is the ever-blessed God. He dwells in the light of joy as well as of purity, and instead of becoming more like Him as we become more miserable, and as all the brightness and glory of life are extinguished, we become more like God as our blessedness becomes more complete. The great Christian graces are radiant with happiness. Faith, hope, charity, there is no sadness in them; and if penitence makes the heart sad, penitence belongs to the sinner, not to the saint.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is the person who is too busy to worry in the daytime and too sleepy to worry at night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56647]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is the person who is too busy to worry in the daytime and too sleepy to worry at night.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have a different effect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have a different effect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We think it is time for Ms. Love to take full financial responsibility for her assault on Ms. King, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35857]]></link><description><![CDATA[We think it is time for Ms. Love to take full financial responsibility for her assault on Ms. King,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65990]]></link><description><![CDATA[The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My days of love are over: me no more The charms of maid, wife, and still less of widow,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48750]]></link><description><![CDATA[My days of love are over: me no more The charms of maid, wife, and still less of widow,  Can make the fool of; that they made before:   In fact I must not lead the life I did do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time I went on TV I got a threat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29759]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every time I went on TV I got a threat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now I see the secret of the making of the best persons.

The high infant mortality rate on reservations is due to devastating poverty. Yet the state has not passed any laws in the last several years that would boost any of the health or education programs within the reservation community. As for tribal sovereignty, the only time the state wants to recognize it is when it benefits the state, as in this instance when it allows Senator Napoli to opt out of an intelligent response.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make revolution a parent of settlement, and not a nursery of future revolutions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54158]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make revolution a parent of settlement, and not a nursery of future revolutions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54158</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They merit more praise who know how to suffer misery than those who temper themselves in contentment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10000]]></link><description><![CDATA[They merit more praise who know how to suffer misery than those who temper themselves in contentment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Asian governments are making significant progress in the fight against poverty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36688]]></link><description><![CDATA[Asian governments are making significant progress in the fight against poverty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faire words makes mee looke to my purse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49233]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faire words makes mee looke to my purse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The kids were really shocked to learn that genocide is still happening. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32675]]></link><description><![CDATA[The kids were really shocked to learn that genocide is still happening.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Say not that honor is the child of boldness, nor believe thou that the hazard of life alone can pay ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28578]]></link><description><![CDATA[Say not that honor is the child of boldness, nor believe thou that the hazard of life alone can pay the price of it: it is not to the action that it is due, but to the manner of performing it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a book is really good, it deserves to be read again, and if it's great, it should be read ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4519]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a book is really good, it deserves to be read again, and if it's great, it should be read at least three times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every person is lined with love! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25739]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every person is lined with love!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25739</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am afraid the Israeli project aims to make Gaza a Palestinian state... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41317]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am afraid the Israeli project aims to make Gaza a Palestinian state...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that wrestles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill.
