We shall find ourselves advancing in our course; we shall feel the presence of God; we shall experience His love; we shall live in the enjoyment of His favour and in the hope of His glory...

He returned to his den, and lying down there, pretended to be sick, taking care that his sickness should be publicly known. The beasts expressed their sorrow, and came one by one to his den, where the Lion devoured them. After many of the beasts had thus disappeared, the Fox discovered the trick and presenting himself to the Lion, stood on the outside of the cave, at a respectful distance, and asked him how he was. I am very middling, replied the Lion, but why do you stand without? Pray enter within to talk with me. No, thank you, said the Fox. I notice that there are many prints of feet entering your cave, but I see no trace of any returning. He is wise who is warned by the misfortunes of others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A-four and a-three and a-two and a-one... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15208]]></link><description><![CDATA[A-four and a-three and a-two and a-one...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one loves somebody everything is clear -- where to go, what to do -- it all takes care of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25795]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one loves somebody everything is clear -- where to go, what to do -- it all takes care of itself and one doesn't have to ask anybody about anything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Clare of Assisi, Founder of the Order of Minoresses (Poor Clares), 1253 Commemoration of John Henry Newman, Priest, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8465]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Clare of Assisi, Founder of the Order of Minoresses (Poor Clares), 1253 Commemoration of John Henry Newman, Priest, Teacher, Tractarian, 1890   In the first ages, [catechizing] was a work of long time; months, sometimes years, were devoted to the arduous task of disabusing the mind of the incipient Christian of its pagan errors, and of moulding it upon the Christian faith. The Scriptures indeed were at hand for the study of those who could avail themselves of them, but St. Iranaeus does not hesitate to speak of whole races who had been converted to Christianity, without being able to read them. To be unable to read or write was in those times no evidence of want of learning; the hermits of the deserts were, in one sense of the word, illiterate, yet the great St. Anthony, though he knew not letters, was a match in disputation for the learned philosophers who came to try him.  ... John Henry Newman, "What is a University?" August 12, 2000   Any single verse of the Bible, taken in isolation, may actually be dangerous to your spiritual health. Every part of it must be read in relation to the whole message.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A free agent is anything but. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24339]]></link><description><![CDATA[A free agent is anything but.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hundreds of men were turned into beasts, Like the guests at Circe's horrible feasts,  By the magic of ale ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hundreds of men were turned into beasts, Like the guests at Circe's horrible feasts,  By the magic of ale and cider.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Madness is badness of spirit, when one seeks profit from all sources ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48341]]></link><description><![CDATA[Madness is badness of spirit, when one seeks profit from all sources]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61868]]></link><description><![CDATA[She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Certes, they been lye to hounds, for an hound when he cometh by the roses, or by other bushes, though ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52369]]></link><description><![CDATA[Certes, they been lye to hounds, for an hound when he cometh by the roses, or by other bushes, though he may nat pisse, yet wole he heve up his leg and make a countenance to pisse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sabbaths of Eternity. One sabbath deep and wide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54596]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sabbaths of Eternity. One sabbath deep and wide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fanatic is not really a stickler to principle.
