I promise thee, Christ will not hear their excuse; for He himself suffered harm for our sakes, and for our salvation was put to extreme death. I wis, if it had pleased Him, He might have saved us and never felt pain; but in suffering pains and death He did give us example, and teach us how we should do one for another, as He did for us all; for, as He saith himself, "he that will be mine, let him deny himself, and follow me, in bearing my cross and suffering my pains." Wherefore we must needs suffer pain with Christ to do our neighbor good, as well with the body and all his members, as with heart and mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By the way, The works of women are symbolical.  We sew, sew, prick our fingers, dull out sight,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62077]]></link><description><![CDATA[By the way, The works of women are symbolical.  We sew, sew, prick our fingers, dull out sight,   Producing what?

When we select for serious consideration those doctrines which "transcend" the thought of his own age and are "for all time", we are assuming that the thought of our age is correct: for of course by thoughts which transcend the great man's age we really mean thoughts that agree with ours. Thus I value Shakespeare's picture of the transformation in old Lear more than I value his views about the divine right of kings, because I agree with Shakespeare that a man can be purified by suffering like Lear, but do not believe that kings (or any other rulers) have divine right in the sense required. When the great man's views do not seem to us erroneous we do not value them the less for having been shared with his contemporaries. Shakespeare's disdain for treachery and Christ's blessing on the poor were not alien to the outlook of their respective periods; but no one wishes to discredit them on that account.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's worst difficulties begin when he is able to do as he likes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16714]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man's worst difficulties begin when he is able to do as he likes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the morning mountaines, in the evening fountaines. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49549]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the morning mountaines, in the evening fountaines.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Villagers do not think village cricket is funny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38676]]></link><description><![CDATA[Villagers do not think village cricket is funny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was really disappointed in our blocking out in the first half.

And that, queerly enough as you might think, the man was not discomfited but heartened. Here at last, he felt, is one who understands and knows the facts. And since His desperate diagnosis is so accurate, may not His optimism also justify itself even in me. Well does He know what is in human nature, and yet, knowing the worst, He still has confident hope.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was her way of dealing with the grief.
