It is when a people forget God that tyrants forge their chains. A vitiated state of morals, a corrupted public conscience, is incompatible with freedom.

It is not to be done in a day. We have not only a new house to build up, but an old one to pull down.   ... George Whitefield, letter   [Thanks to Bill Blake at pilgrimwb@aol.com]  September 7, 2000 Commemoration of Douglas Downes, Founder of the Society of Saint Francis, 1957 There are three lessons I would write,  Three words, as with a burning pen, In tracings of eternal light,  Upon the hearts of men. Have Hope. Though clouds environ round,  And gladness hides her face in scorn,  Put off the shadow from thy brow:  No night but hath its morn. Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is driven -  The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth - Know this: God rules the hosts of heaven,  The inhabitants of earth. Have Love. Not love alone for one,  But man, as man, thy brother call;  And scatter, like a circling sun,  Thy charities on all.   ... Friedrich von Schiller  September 8, 2000   Temptations and occasions put nothing into a man, but only draw out what was in him before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To many fame comes too late. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19489]]></link><description><![CDATA[To many fame comes too late.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19489</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great deeds are usually wrought at great risks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great deeds are usually wrought at great risks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All mystics speak the same language, for they come from the same country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43596]]></link><description><![CDATA[All mystics speak the same language, for they come from the same country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men of quality are in the wrong to undervalue, as they often do, the practise of a fair and quick ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46023]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men of quality are in the wrong to undervalue, as they often do, the practise of a fair and quick hand in writing; for it is no immaterial accomplishment. [Lat., Non sest aliena res, quae fere ab honestis negligi solet, cura bene ac velociter scribendi.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Expect victory and you make victory. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60566]]></link><description><![CDATA[Expect victory and you make victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the best methods of rendering study agreeable is to live with able men, and to suffer all those ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58048]]></link><description><![CDATA[One of the best methods of rendering study agreeable is to live with able men, and to suffer all those pangs of inferiority which the want of knowledge always inflicts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let frantic Talbot triumph for a while And like a peacock sweep along his tail;  We'll pull his plumes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46004]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let frantic Talbot triumph for a while And like a peacock sweep along his tail;  We'll pull his plumes and take away his train,   If Dauphin and the rest will be but ruled.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Die?
