There are too many who are devout, but not students. They will not accept the discipline of study and of learning, and they even look with suspicion upon the further knowledge which study brings to men. There are equally too many who are students, but not devout. They are interested too much in intellectual knowledge, and too little in the life of prayer and in the life of service of their fellow men. A man would do well to aim at being not only a student, and not only devout, but at being a devout student.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treason is like diamonds; there is nothing to be made by the small trader ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4169]]></link><description><![CDATA[Treason is like diamonds; there is nothing to be made by the small trader]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Water a farre off quencheth not fire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50039]]></link><description><![CDATA[Water a farre off quencheth not fire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought we did a decent job defensively, Toronto worried us because of their size.

Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ... Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. Character is supreme in life, and hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing -- so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code, but a character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We did what was best for the horse, not what other people thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36313]]></link><description><![CDATA[We did what was best for the horse, not what other people thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Revenge converts a little right into a great wrong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54103]]></link><description><![CDATA[Revenge converts a little right into a great wrong.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is strange that we do not temper our resentment of criticism with a thought for our many faults which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53938]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is strange that we do not temper our resentment of criticism with a thought for our many faults which have escaped us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25875]]></link><description><![CDATA[Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The love of money and the love of learning rarely meet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49888]]></link><description><![CDATA[The love of money and the love of learning rarely meet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A foot more light, a step more true, Ne'er from the heath-flower dashed the dew. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16414]]></link><description><![CDATA[A foot more light, a step more true, Ne'er from the heath-flower dashed the dew.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The doctors gave her over--to an ass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50166]]></link><description><![CDATA[The doctors gave her over--to an ass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63586]]></link><description><![CDATA[All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22937]]></link><description><![CDATA[I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one boss.

"That must be something very terrible and awful. That certainly must rend and tear the life to which God comes. At least, it will separate it and make it unnatural and strange. God fills a bush with His glory and it burns. God enters into the great mountain, and it rocks with earthquake. When he comes to occupy a man, He must distort the humanity which He occupies into some inhuman shape." Instead of that, this new life into which God comes, seems to be the most quietly, naturally human life that was ever seen upon the earth. It glides into its place like sunlight. It seems to make it evident that God and man are essentially so near together, that the meeting of their natures in the life of a God-man is not strange. So always does Christ deal with His own nature, accepting His Divinity as you and I accept our humanity, and letting it shine out through the envelope with which it has most subtly and mysteriously mingled, as the soul is mingled with and shines out through the body.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Between two hawks, which flies the higher pitch; Between two dogs, which hath the deeper mouth; Between two blades, which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55976]]></link><description><![CDATA[Between two hawks, which flies the higher pitch; Between two dogs, which hath the deeper mouth; Between two blades, which bears the better temper; Between two horses, which doth bear him best; Between two girls, which hath the merriest eye,— I have perhaps some shallow spirit of judgment; But in these nice sharp quillets of the law, Good faith, I am no wiser than a daw. -King Henry VI.
