Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[until the accused are in custody. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41097]]></link><description><![CDATA[until the accused are in custody.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every unpunished murder takes away something from the security of every man's life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every unpunished murder takes away something from the security of every man's life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who has nothing for which he willing to fight; nothing he cares about more than his own personal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16687]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who has nothing for which he willing to fight; nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety; is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have found that to be a very successful recruiting tool. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40810]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have found that to be a very successful recruiting tool.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Doing business without advertising is like winking at a girl in the dark.
