It does not always ask words, but it always wants work. The motives and not the means are the things on which it passes judgment. And the man who shows by his life that he is not ashamed of the Gospel will assuredly one day find that the Gospel is not ashamed of him. There is much more which might be said, but I refrain. Ere I close, you will let me add my emphasis to the fact that it is in our life and conduct that we must show our devotion to Christ. The silent Gospel reaches further than the grandest rhetoric.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mode in which the inevitable comes to pass is through effort. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59897]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mode in which the inevitable comes to pass is through effort.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is really a lovely horse, I once rode her mother. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57574]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is really a lovely horse, I once rode her mother.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A foole may throw a stone into a well, which a hundred wise men cannot pull out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49020]]></link><description><![CDATA[A foole may throw a stone into a well, which a hundred wise men cannot pull out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fool me no fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16325]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fool me no fools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No friend to Love like a long voyage at sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/181]]></link><description><![CDATA[No friend to Love like a long voyage at sea.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no way of keeping profits up but by keeping wages down. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5063]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no way of keeping profits up but by keeping wages down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not disbelief that is dangerous to our society; it is belief ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4065]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not disbelief that is dangerous to our society; it is belief]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look at life through the windshield, not the rear-view mirror ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24817]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look at life through the windshield, not the rear-view mirror]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24817</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The governor certainly takes pride in Pittsburgh's accomplishments and would be more than willing to participate in a friendly wager. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31893]]></link><description><![CDATA[The governor certainly takes pride in Pittsburgh's accomplishments and would be more than willing to participate in a friendly wager.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31893</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54161]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Caring is a powerful business advantage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Caring is a powerful business advantage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's only one team a year that goes out the way they want to go out.
