Your first duty is to begin by prayer. Entreat the Lord to grant you, of His great mercy, the true understanding of His Word. There is no other interpreter of the Word of God than the Author of this Word, as He Himself has said, "They shall be all taught of God" (John 6:45). Hope for nothing from your own labors, from your own understanding: trust solely in God, and in the influence of His Spirit. Believe this on the word of a man who has experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance, madam, pure ignorance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20419]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance, madam, pure ignorance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bigotry dwarfs the soul by shutting out the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4207]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bigotry dwarfs the soul by shutting out the truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents.

But at the submicroscopic level, specks of matter scattered through a vast emptiness have such incredible density and weight, and are linked to one another by such powerful forces, that together they produce all the properties of concrete, cast iron and solid rock. In much the same way, specks of knowledge are scattered through a vast emptiness of ignorance, and everything depends upon how solid the individual specks of knowledge are, and on how powerfully linked and coordinated they are with one another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The seed of God is in us.
