For it is to this end that he brings his own body into subjection, that he may be able to serve others more sincerely and more freely... Thus it is impossible that he should take his ease in this life, and not work for the good of his neighbors, since he must needs speak, act, and converse among men, just as Christ... had His conversation among men... It is the part of a Christian to take care of his own body for the very purpose that by its soundness and wellbeing he may be enabled to labor... for the aid of those who are in want, that thus the stronger member may serve the weaker member, and we may be children of God, and busy for one another, bearing one another's burdens, and so fulfilling the law of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Osmund, Bishop of Salisbury, 1099  These things I did not see by the help of man, nor ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Osmund, Bishop of Salisbury, 1099  These things I did not see by the help of man, nor by the letter, though they are written in the letter; but I saw them in the light of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by his immediate Spirit and power, as did the Holy men of God, by whom the Holy Scriptures were written.

How would the man interpret it? Would it not mean to him, "You may go on hating. I do not mind it. You have had great provocation, and are justified in your hate?" No doubt God takes what wrong there is, and what provocation there is, into the account; but the more provocation, the more excuse that can be urged for the hate, the more reason, if possible, that the hater should be delivered from the hell of his hate, that God's child should be made the loving child that He meant him to be. The man would think, not that God loved the sinner, but that He forgave the sin, which God never does. Every sin meets its due fate -- inexorable expulsion from the paradise of God's Humanity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The human race is faced with a cruel choice: work or daytime television. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6119]]></link><description><![CDATA[The human race is faced with a cruel choice: work or daytime television.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for- because unless we stand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60827]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for- because unless we stand for something we shall fall for anything]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28848]]></link><description><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66023]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11824]]></link><description><![CDATA[The land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it's the only thing that lasts".....Gerald O'Hara, Gone With The Wind]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11824</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most precious gift we can offer anyone is our attention.

I can bear the sorrow of all men and feed all the poor and do the work of all men and whatever else you may think of. If it be not the will that fails you, but only the power, then truly, before God, you have done it all, and no man can take it from you or even hinder you for a moment; for to will to do as soon as I can is the same before God as having done it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men [are] of one metal, but not in one mold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27034]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men [are] of one metal, but not in one mold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Grammar is not a time of waste ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18120]]></link><description><![CDATA[Grammar is not a time of waste]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature abhors annihilation. [Lat., Ab interitu naturam abhorrere.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature abhors annihilation. [Lat., Ab interitu naturam abhorrere.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The back-doore robs the house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The back-doore robs the house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is not having been told that the man has just waxed the floor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24960]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is not having been told that the man has just waxed the floor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24960</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The profession of book writing makes horse racing seem like a solid and stable business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63554]]></link><description><![CDATA[The profession of book writing makes horse racing seem like a solid and stable business.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A virtuous and a Christianlike conclusion-- To pray for them that have done scathe to us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6177]]></link><description><![CDATA[A virtuous and a Christianlike conclusion-- To pray for them that have done scathe to us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baloo, baloo, my wee, wee thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3634]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baloo, baloo, my wee, wee thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57429]]></link><description><![CDATA[Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prices continue to climb even though construction is under way.
