But the Devil has. The Devil knows that as long as he can control human pride it does not matter how many prayer meetings, how many services, how much devotion goes on -- he can still wrack any group of Christians, sooner or later, and frustrate God's purpose for them, and for the world.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn August 11, 1999 Feast of Clare of Assisi, Founder of the Order of Minoresses (Poor Clares), 1253 Commemoration of John Henry Newman, Priest, Teacher, Tractarian, 1890   Never... think we have a due knowledge of ourselves till we have been exposed to various kinds of temptations, and tried on every side. Integrity on one side of our character is no voucher for integrity on another. We cannot tell how we should act if brought under temptations different from those we have hitherto experienced. This thought should keep us humble. We are sinners, but we do not know how great. He alone knows who died for our sins.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men may die, but the fabrics of free institutions remains unshaken. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31460]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men may die, but the fabrics of free institutions remains unshaken.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1991]]></link><description><![CDATA[Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You betray your own failing if you cannot bear with the fault of a friend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51647]]></link><description><![CDATA[You betray your own failing if you cannot bear with the fault of a friend.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The jury, passing on the prisoner's life, may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guiltier than him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23584]]></link><description><![CDATA[The jury, passing on the prisoner's life, may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guiltier than him they try]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one who cannot rejoice in the discovery of his own mistakes deserves to be called a scholar ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58014]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one who cannot rejoice in the discovery of his own mistakes deserves to be called a scholar]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If thou desirest to be safe, turn at once in thy emptiness to God.

He desires his transcript to be faithful to the meaning of the original, so far as he can reach that meaning, and also to do some justice to its literary qualities. But he is well aware that his aim often exceeds his grasp. Translation may be a fascinating task, yet no discipline is more humbling. You may be translating oracles, but soon you learn the risk and folly of posing as an oracle yourself. If your readers are dissatisfied at any point, they may be sure that the translator is still more dissatisfied, if not there, then elsewhere -- all the more so, because, in the nature of the case, he has always to appear dogmatic in print.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[President Bush has made this declaration so Tennessee can get back on their feet and go on with their lives ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38111]]></link><description><![CDATA[President Bush has made this declaration so Tennessee can get back on their feet and go on with their lives as quickly as possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't put equipment on your gravestone.*Ian Stewart's father about the risks he was taking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/670]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can't put equipment on your gravestone.*Ian Stewart's father about the risks he was taking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue by premeditation isn't worth much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60793]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue by premeditation isn't worth much.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only so much do I know, as I have lived. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14677]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only so much do I know, as I have lived.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an awesome piece of equipment, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33660]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is an awesome piece of equipment,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You need forensic mathematicians, artists and psychologists as well as scientists.
