Your first duty is to begin by prayer. Entreat the Lord to grant you, of His great mercy, the true understanding of His Word. There is no other interpreter of the Word of God than the Author of this Word, as He Himself has said, "They shall be all taught of God" (John 6:45). Hope for nothing from your own labors, from your own understanding: trust solely in God, and in the influence of His Spirit. Believe this on the word of a man who has experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sacred Dove a quill did lend From her high-soaring wing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46022]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sacred Dove a quill did lend From her high-soaring wing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Change alone is unchanging. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Change alone is unchanging.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who seeks for gain, must be at some expense. [Lat., Necesse est facere sumptum, qui quaerit lucrum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17139]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who seeks for gain, must be at some expense. [Lat., Necesse est facere sumptum, qui quaerit lucrum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63603]]></link><description><![CDATA[All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No love is foule, nor prison fair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49652]]></link><description><![CDATA[No love is foule, nor prison fair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He pares his apple that will cleanly feed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13199]]></link><description><![CDATA[He pares his apple that will cleanly feed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is circumstances (difficulties) which show what men are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8709]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is circumstances (difficulties) which show what men are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8709</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13708]]></link><description><![CDATA[Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technically, the recommendation is part of the governor's decision-making process and should remain with the governor until she makes her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36579]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technically, the recommendation is part of the governor's decision-making process and should remain with the governor until she makes her formal announcement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36579</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3894]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3894</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is criminal to steal a purse, daring to steal a fortune, a mark of greatness to steal a crown. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18492]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is criminal to steal a purse, daring to steal a fortune, a mark of greatness to steal a crown.
