But now I may say I heard, but I understood not; for they were far above, out of my reach; for their talk was about a new birth -- the work of God on their hearts. And methought they spake as if Joy did make them speak; they spake with such pleasantness of scripture language and with such appearance of grace in all they said, that they were to me as if they had found a new world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[About the time we think we can make ends meet, somebody moves the ends. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24335]]></link><description><![CDATA[About the time we think we can make ends meet, somebody moves the ends.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My peace is gone, my heart is heavy. [Ger., Meine Ruh ist hin,  Mein Herz ist schwer.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19047]]></link><description><![CDATA[My peace is gone, my heart is heavy. [Ger., Meine Ruh ist hin,  Mein Herz ist schwer.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou ought to be nice, even to superstition, in keeping thy promises, and therefore equally cautious in making them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1115]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou ought to be nice, even to superstition, in keeping thy promises, and therefore equally cautious in making them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wherever there is a human being there is an opportunity for a kindness. [Lat., Unicumque homo est, ibi beneficio locus ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23760]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wherever there is a human being there is an opportunity for a kindness. [Lat., Unicumque homo est, ibi beneficio locus est.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rose is fairest when 'tis budding new. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51120]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rose is fairest when 'tis budding new.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Necessity makes even the timid brave. [Lat., Necessitas etiam timidos fortes facit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44058]]></link><description><![CDATA[Necessity makes even the timid brave. [Lat., Necessitas etiam timidos fortes facit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For dear is the Emerald Isle of the ocean, Whose daughters are fair as the foam of the wave,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23055]]></link><description><![CDATA[For dear is the Emerald Isle of the ocean, Whose daughters are fair as the foam of the wave,  Whose sons unaccustom'd to rebel commotion,   Tho' joyous, are sober--tho' peaceful, are brave.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The soul is healed by being with children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6033]]></link><description><![CDATA[The soul is healed by being with children.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't but say it is an awkward sight To see one's native land receding through  The growing waters; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25956]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can't but say it is an awkward sight To see one's native land receding through  The growing waters; it unmans one quite,   Especially when life is rather new.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip will be good for all students.
