Let us live while we live; let us be alive and doing; let us act on what we have, since we have not what we wish. Let us believe what we do not see and know. Let us forestall knowledge by faith. Let us maintain before we have demonstrated. This seeming paradox is the secret of happiness. Why should we be unwilling to go by faith? We do all things in this world by faith in the word of others. By faith only do we know our position in the world, our circumstances, our rights and privileges, our fortunes, our parents, our brothers and sisters, our age, our mortality. Why should Religion be an exception? Why should we be unwilling to use for heavenly objects what we daily use for earthly?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And rolling far along the gloomy shores The voice of days of old and days to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60926]]></link><description><![CDATA[And rolling far along the gloomy shores The voice of days of old and days to be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is having lots to do and not doing it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66184]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is having lots to do and not doing it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like I can go harder out there now. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28585]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like I can go harder out there now.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you start asking questions, innocence is gone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20970]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you start asking questions, innocence is gone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The excitement of learning separates youth from old age.

The state of slavery described in Romans 7 is a slavery to wrong desires; not merely to "flesh" in the abstract, as implying our material nature and environment, but to the "mind of the flesh" -- the lower nature and environment made a part of one's conscious self. What the Law could not do, God has done by the gift of the Spirit of Christ: He has given the victory to the higher self. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." (II Cor. 3:17) "The Law of the Spirit -- the law of a life in communion with Christ Jesus -- has made me free from the law of sin and death." (Rom. 8:2) Whereas life was a hopeless struggle, it now becomes a struggle in which the handicap is removed, and victory already secured in principle, because God has come into the life. The Law was external; it was the taskmaster set over against the troubled and fettered will of man. The Spirit is within, the mind of the Spirit is the mind of the man himself, and from within works out a growing perfection of life which satisfies the real longing of the soul. In the full sense freedom is still an object of hope; but the liberty already attained makes possible the building up of a Christian morality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It looks like it's coming straight for us in Dominica, ...

Theday being intensely hot, and the sun shining in its strength, theTraveler stopped to rest, and sought shelter from the heat underthe Shadow of the Ass. As this afforded only protection for one,and as the Traveler and the owner of the Ass both claimed it, aviolent dispute arose between them as to which of them had theright to the Shadow. The owner maintained that he had let theAss only, and not his Shadow. The Traveler asserted that he had,with the hire of the Ass, hired his Shadow also. The quarrelproceeded from words to blows, and while the men fought, the Assgalloped off. In quarreling about the shadow we often lose the substance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The poets did well to conjoin music and medicine, because the office of medicine is but to tune the curious ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25360]]></link><description><![CDATA[The poets did well to conjoin music and medicine, because the office of medicine is but to tune the curious harp of man's body.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With any bank consolidation, there are efficiencies to be gained. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41947]]></link><description><![CDATA[With any bank consolidation, there are efficiencies to be gained.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The novel is born of disillusionment; the poem, of despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64328]]></link><description><![CDATA[The novel is born of disillusionment; the poem, of despair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The will for the deed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11678]]></link><description><![CDATA[The will for the deed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11678</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64707]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victory has a hundred fathers but defeat is an orphan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25559]]></link><description><![CDATA[Victory has a hundred fathers but defeat is an orphan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, A Death in the Family, Shorter Fiction ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36986]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, A Death in the Family, Shorter Fiction]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Revolutions never go backward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Revolutions never go backward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A bad book is as much of a labor to write as a good one, it comes as sincerely from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63722]]></link><description><![CDATA[A bad book is as much of a labor to write as a good one, it comes as sincerely from the author's soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65837]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hate him to death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29966]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hate him to death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29966</guid></item></channel></rss>
