You hold on to things that were. You wonder what's to come. But that night, I think we knew it was time to let go of what had been, and look ahead to what would be. Other days. New days. Days to come. The thing is, we didn't have to hate each other for getting older. We just had to forgive ourselves... for growing up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If this were a logical world, men would ride side saddle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14587]]></link><description><![CDATA[If this were a logical world, men would ride side saddle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On dit que dans ses amours Il fut caresse des belles,  Qui le suivirent toujours,   Tant qu'il ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/612]]></link><description><![CDATA[On dit que dans ses amours Il fut caresse des belles,  Qui le suivirent toujours,   Tant qu'il marcha devant elles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coventry is a tremendous test for our squad.

And hence it is that worse passions, or a worse degree of them are to be found in persons of great religious zeal than in others that made no pretenses to it. History also furnishes us with instances of persons of great piety and devotion who have fallen into great delusions and deceived both themselves and others. The occasion of their fall was this: ... They considered their whole nature as the subject of religion and divine graces; and therefore their religion was according to the workings of their whole nature, and the old man was as busy and as much delighted in it as the new.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   In holy Scripture is fully contained what we ought ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6351]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   In holy Scripture is fully contained what we ought to do, and what to eschew; what to believe, what to love, and what to look for at God's hands at length. In these Books we shall find the father from whom, the son by whom, and the holy Ghost in whom all things have their being and keeping up, and these three persons to be but one God, and one substance.   Read [Holy Scripture] humbly with a meek and lowly heart, to the intent you may glorify God, and not your self, with the knowledge of it: and read it not without daily praying to God, that he would direct your reading to good effect: and take upon you to expound it no further than you can plainly understand it. For (as Saint Augustine says) the knowledge of holy Scripture is a great, large, and a high place, but the door is very low, so that the high & arrogant man cannot run in: but he must stoop low, and humble himself, that shall enter into it... The humble man may search any truth boldly in the Scripture, without any danger of error. (Continued tomorrow)   ... "A Fruitful exhortation to the reading of holy Scripture", from the Anglican Homilies [1562]  March 4, 2001 Commemoration of Felix, Bishop, Apostle to the East Angles, 647 Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   Scripture in some places is easy, and in some places hard to be understood. This have I said, as touching the fear to read, through ignorance of the person. And concerning the hardness of Scripture, he that is so weak that he is not able to [eat] strong meat, yet he may suck the sweet and tender milk, and defer the rest, until he wax stronger, and come to more knowledge. For God receives the learned and unlearned, and casts away none, but [does not discriminate]. And the Scripture is full as well of low valleys, plain ways, and easy for every man to use, and to walk in: as also of high hills & mountains, which few men can climb unto.   ... "A Fruitful exhortation to the reading of holy Scripture", from the Anglican Homilies [1562]  March 5, 2001 Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   We are to believe and follow Christ in all things, including his words about Scripture. And this means that Scripture is to be for us what it was to him: the unique, authoritative, and inerrant Word of God, and not merely a human testimony to Christ, however carefully guided and preserved by God. If the Bible is less than this to us, we are not fully Christ's disciples.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lie lightly on my ashes, gentle earthe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14087]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lie lightly on my ashes, gentle earthe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once they get their hooks into you, you're a dead pigeon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30856]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once they get their hooks into you, you're a dead pigeon.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He did a lot of good things during his tenure here.
