I love riches because they afford me the means of helping the very poor. I keep faith with everybody; I do not render evil to those who wrong me, but I wish them a situation like mine, in which I receive neither good nor evil from men. I try to be just, true, sincere, and faithful to all men; I have a tender heart for those to whom God has more closely united me; and whether I am alone, or seen by people, I do all my actions in the sight of God, who must judge them, and to whom I have consecrated them all. These are my sentiments; and every day of my life, I bless my Redeemer, who has implanted them in me, and who, out of a man full of weakness, of miseries, of lust, of pride, and of ambition, has made a man free from all these evils by the power of His grace, to which all the glory of it is due, as of myself I have only misery and error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/97]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is able to do that counts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/97</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of James the Apostle  Upon a little reflection one can see that no concepts which are restricted to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of James the Apostle  Upon a little reflection one can see that no concepts which are restricted to Christianity could possibly be found in a language spoken only by pagans. How could pagans have developed words for Christian ideas which have never occurred to them? This identical situation existed when the Holy Spirit inspired the New Testament. At that time many pagan words, with pagan-thought background, were used in Christian contexts; by the contexts the present Christian meaning eventually built up, until it was possible to express all the Christian meaning in the pagan terms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You may conquer with a sword but you are conquered by a kiss. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23849]]></link><description><![CDATA[You may conquer with a sword but you are conquered by a kiss.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63626]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The horse thinkes one thing, and he that sadles him another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49874]]></link><description><![CDATA[The horse thinkes one thing, and he that sadles him another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gave His body to that pleasant country's earth, And his pure soul unto his captain Christ, Under whose colours he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55827]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gave His body to that pleasant country's earth, And his pure soul unto his captain Christ, Under whose colours he had fought so long. -King Richard II.
