We all know the changes and chances of this troublous life; but we can also know in this vale of tears the healthful spirit of His grace. Health for the whole man is God's gracious purpose for us here and now, often frustrated, often prevented by unbelief. The life of the saints in light must not emphasize for us simply the contrast between their state and ours, but rather the beginning of the gift of eternal life and all its benefits of inner strength and peace amid earthly vicissitudes. .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of the blame and a little ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4288]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of the blame and a little less than his share of the credit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essentials of poetry are rhythm, dance, and the human voice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46810]]></link><description><![CDATA[The essentials of poetry are rhythm, dance, and the human voice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not downhearted, but we cannot understand what is happening to our neighbours. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10276]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are not downhearted, but we cannot understand what is happening to our neighbours.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is a political animal by nature; he is a scientist by chance or choice; he is a moralist because ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26266]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is a political animal by nature; he is a scientist by chance or choice; he is a moralist because he is a man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a proof of a well-trained mind, to rejoice in what is good and to grieve at the opposite. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17848]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a proof of a well-trained mind, to rejoice in what is good and to grieve at the opposite. [Lat., Ergo hoc proprium est animi bene constituti, et laetari bonis rebus, et dolere contrariis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Logic will get you from A to B.
