But it is rather the giving up of self into the hands of God, without stint and without reserve, and letting Him set the work. It is the recognition of the fact that God has many kinds of work to be done, and that the best paid are not always the most honourable. To enter or exercise the ministry with a view to preferment is like marrying for money and not for love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never let your memories be greater than your dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62943]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never let your memories be greater than your dreams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62943</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never knew what a reporter looked like. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34121]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never knew what a reporter looked like.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461   How wonderful it is -- is it not? -- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6731]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461   How wonderful it is -- is it not? -- that literally only Christianity has taught us the true place and function of suffering. The Stoics tried the hopeless little game of denying its objective reality, or of declaring it a good in itself (which it never is); and the Pessimists attempted to revel in it, as a food to their melancholy, and as something that can no more be transformed than it can be avoided or explained. But Christ came, and He did not really explain it; He did far more: He met it, willed it, transformed it; and He taught us to do all this -- or, rather, He Himself does it within us, if we do not hinder the all-healing hands.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What lies concealed is unknown; there can be no desire for what is not known. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50805]]></link><description><![CDATA[What lies concealed is unknown; there can be no desire for what is not known.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From that moment onwards, I was in a position to win.

For when the heart really pants and longs after God, its prayer is a praying, as moved and animated by the Spirit of God; it is the breath or inspiration of God, stirring, moving and opening itself in the heart. For though the early nature, our old man, can oblige or accustom himself to take heavenly words at certain times into his mouth, yet this is a certain truth, that nothing ever did, or can have the least desire or tendency to ascend to heaven, but that which came down from heaven; and therefore nothing in the heart can pray, aspire, and long after God, but the Spirit of God moving and stirring in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man marries to have a home, but also because he doesn't want to be bothered with sex and all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26465]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man marries to have a home, but also because he doesn't want to be bothered with sex and all that sort of thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're thrilled.

He must cease to be George, Hans, Ivan or Tadao- a human atom with an existence bounded by birth and death. The most drastic way to achieve this end is by complete assimilation of the individual into a collective body. The fully assimilated individual does not see himself and others as human beings. When asked who he is, his automatic response is that he is a German, a Russian, a Japanese, a Christian, a Moslem, a member of a certain tribe or family. He has no purpose, worth and destiny apart from his collective body; and as long as that body lives he cannot really die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is the progressive realization of worthwhile, predetermined, personal goals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is the progressive realization of worthwhile, predetermined, personal goals.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conjugal love, or the friendship of spouses, can persist even after sexual desires have weakened, withered, and disappeared. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66614]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conjugal love, or the friendship of spouses, can persist even after sexual desires have weakened, withered, and disappeared.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66524]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am convinced that the majority of people would be generous from selfish motives, if they had the opportunity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17255]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am convinced that the majority of people would be generous from selfish motives, if they had the opportunity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I pray that this council, which will probably be too late to save Iraq, will do what it can, which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34208]]></link><description><![CDATA[I pray that this council, which will probably be too late to save Iraq, will do what it can, which will be immeasurably strong in what it does in trying to save our democracy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was something totally unique and I am not sure I've ever felt it since, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40850]]></link><description><![CDATA[There was something totally unique and I am not sure I've ever felt it since,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest vicissitude of things amongst men, is the vicissitude of sects and religions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53457]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest vicissitude of things amongst men, is the vicissitude of sects and religions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think no vice so small that you may commit it, and no virtue so small that you may over look ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1464]]></link><description><![CDATA[Think no vice so small that you may commit it, and no virtue so small that you may over look it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One's real life is so often the life that one does not lead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15309]]></link><description><![CDATA[One's real life is so often the life that one does not lead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Britannia needs no bulwarks No towers along the steep;  Her march is o'er the mountain wave,   Her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13910]]></link><description><![CDATA[Britannia needs no bulwarks No towers along the steep;  Her march is o'er the mountain wave,   Her home is on the deep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He might have proved a useful adjunct, if not an ornament to society. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56773]]></link><description><![CDATA[He might have proved a useful adjunct, if not an ornament to society.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll talk with trainers, doctors, coaches, but I'm looking to play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37352]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll talk with trainers, doctors, coaches, but I'm looking to play.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37352</guid></item></channel></rss>
