Above thy deep and dreamless sleep   The silent stars go by: Yet in thy dark streets shineth   The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years   Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary;   And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep   Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars together   Proclaim the holy birth; And praises sing to God the King,   And peace to men on earth. How silently, how silently,   The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts   The blessings of His Heav'n. No ear may hear His coming,   But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still,   The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem,   Descend to us, we pray, Cast out our sins, and enter in,   Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels   The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us,   Our Lord Emmanuel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An increasing number of middle income Americans are benefiting from the rising value of their stocks and mutual funds, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30203]]></link><description><![CDATA[An increasing number of middle income Americans are benefiting from the rising value of their stocks and mutual funds, and they have a stake in our economy, ...

The temptation to institutionalism is always with us, and who will profess himself guiltless? We reduce Christianity to the service of an institution, the Church, for this enables us to be active in what is fondly called "the work of the Lord," while at the same time failing to grapple with the fundamental problem for all Christians, that of winning our generation for Christ. In our little circle of like-minded people we condemn outsiders because they do not come in. Perhaps we even make half-hearted attempts to get them to come in. And then we snuggle down again in the warmth of our fellowship, comforted that we have done all that might reasonably be expected of men in our situation. Fortified with this consolation we concentrate on keeping the institution, the Church, running as it should.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice is the truth in action. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23628]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice is the truth in action.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Know most of the rooms of thy native country before thou goest over the threshold thereof. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59617]]></link><description><![CDATA[Know most of the rooms of thy native country before thou goest over the threshold thereof.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Boys are sent out into the world to buffet with its temptations, to mingle with bad and good, to govern ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55289]]></link><description><![CDATA[Boys are sent out into the world to buffet with its temptations, to mingle with bad and good, to govern and direct - girls are to dwell in quiet homes among few friends, to exercise a noiseless influence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I have loved them, Ocean! and my joy Of youthful sports was on thy breast to be  Borne, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44882]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I have loved them, Ocean! and my joy Of youthful sports was on thy breast to be  Borne, like shy bubbles, onward; from a boy   I wanton'd with thy breakers.    . . . .     And laid my hand upon thy mane--as I do here.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44882</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell is paved with good intentions, not with bad ones.
