This losing of things is the mercy of God: it comes to teach us to let them go. Or have I forgotten a thought that came to me, which seemed of the truth? I keep trying and trying to call it back, feeling a poor man until that thought be recovered -- to be far more lost, perhaps, in a notebook into which I shall never look again to find it! I forget that it is live things that God cares about.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stood up, the strongest and the fiercest spirit That fought in heaven, now fiercer by despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12011]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stood up, the strongest and the fiercest spirit That fought in heaven, now fiercer by despair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By speaking of our misfortunes we often relieve them. [Fr., A raconter ses maux souvent on les soulage.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42801]]></link><description><![CDATA[By speaking of our misfortunes we often relieve them. [Fr., A raconter ses maux souvent on les soulage.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Still ending, and beginning still. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5523]]></link><description><![CDATA[Still ending, and beginning still.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Divine Wisdom has given us prayer, not as a means whereby to obtain the good things of earth, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7760]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Divine Wisdom has given us prayer, not as a means whereby to obtain the good things of earth, but as a means whereby we learn to do without them; not as a means whereby we escape evil, but as a means whereby we become strong to meet it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not the money.

When I was a child, bishops expressed doubts about the Resurrection, and were called courageous. When I was a girl, G. K. Chesterton professed belief in the Resurrection, and was called whimsical. When I was at college, thoughtful people expressed belief in the Resurrection "in a spiritual sense", and were called advanced; (any other kind of belief was called obsolete, and its professors were held to be simpleminded). When I was middle-aged, a number of lay persons, including some poets and writers of popular fiction, put forward rational arguments for the Resurrection, and were called courageous. Today, any lay apologist for Christianity... whose works are sold and read, is liable to be abused in no uncertain terms as a mountebank, a reactionary, a tool of the Inquisition, a spiritual snob, an intellectual bully, an escapist, an obstructionist, a psychopathic introvert, an insensitive extrovert, and an enemy of society. The charges are not always mutually compatible, but the common animus behind them is unmistakable, and its name is fear. Writers who attack these domineering Christians are called courageous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sex prejudice is so ingrained in our society that many who practice it are simply unaware that they are hurting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48119]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sex prejudice is so ingrained in our society that many who practice it are simply unaware that they are hurting .

That hope alone explains the Book, giving meaning and consistency to its story. Was it a chimera, an hallucination? According to the prophecy of Micah, the messianic Shepherd of Israel had to be born in Bethlehem. It is unthinkable that an heir to the throne of David could be born in Bethlehem now, and be also able to prove his legitimacy by documentary evidence. The event must clearly have taken place already, or Micah is a false prophet, a raiser of false hopes, along with the other writers in the Old Testament.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A young man married is a man that 's marr'd. -All 's Well that Ends Well.
