Her hand rests by an iron spike from the wood thrust high  ("The nails in His hands!" ) An open chink in the rude, cold shed lets in the sky, and the Star that led shepherds and kings pours down its light: a silver shaft through the frosty night  ("The spear in His side!") Her hands reach out, as to push away the cross-crowned hill and the bloody day; they touch a rough, unyielding wall: the stable side, of stone piled tall  ("The stone -- rolled away!").]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the end we shall have had enough of cynicism and skepticism and humbug and we shall want to live ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10955]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the end we shall have had enough of cynicism and skepticism and humbug and we shall want to live more musically]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As cold as cucumbers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48515]]></link><description><![CDATA[As cold as cucumbers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you think nobody cares if you are alive, try missing a couple of carpayments. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21918]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you think nobody cares if you are alive, try missing a couple of carpayments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have to find a way to match his intensity for 90 minutes because he's going to find a way ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37602]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have to find a way to match his intensity for 90 minutes because he's going to find a way to score a goal.

So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its savor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens betrays God when a man's mind works that way. Things have all this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The safety and happiness of society are the objects at which all political institutions aim, and to which all such ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54642]]></link><description><![CDATA[The safety and happiness of society are the objects at which all political institutions aim, and to which all such institutions must be sacrificed]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People don't have fortunes left them in that style nowadays; men have to work and women to marry for money. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15986]]></link><description><![CDATA[People don't have fortunes left them in that style nowadays; men have to work and women to marry for money.

Our holiness is an effect, not a cause; as long as our eyes are on our own personal whiteness as an end in itself, the thing breaks down. God can do nothing while my interest is in my personal character--He will take care of this if I obey His call. In learning to love God and people as He commanded us to do, obviously your sanctification cannot but come, but not as an end in itself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43985]]></link><description><![CDATA[And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with peace propaganda is that when it is permitted it isn't necessary, and when it's necessary it isn't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48419]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with peace propaganda is that when it is permitted it isn't necessary, and when it's necessary it isn't permitted]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think that the flesh is necessarily treacherous, evil, bad.

It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It's a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bush said today he is being stalked.
