Some believe the better for seeing Christ's Sepulchre, and when they have seen the Red Sea, doubt not the miracle. Now contrarily I bless myself, and am thankful that I lived not in the days of miracles, that I never saw Christ nor His Disciples; I would not have been one of those Israelites that passed the Red Sea, nor one of Christ's patients, on whom He wrought His wonders; then had my faith been thrust upon me, nor should I enjoy that greater blessing pronounced to all that believe and saw not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love my children.

Mary's, of course, was the better part -- the Lord said so, and we must not precisely contradict Him. But we will be careful not to despise Martha. No doubt, He approved of her, too. We could not get on without her, and indeed, having paid lip-service to God's opinion, we must admit that we greatly prefer her, for Martha was doing a really feminine job, whereas Mary was just behaving like any other disciple; and that is a hard pill to swallow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They came out to play ball and go up 21-zip after that punter fumbles that ball.

Vexed by an evil spirit, like the Gadarene swine and other critics. Obsession was once more common than it is now. Arasthus tells of a peasant who was occupied by a different devil for every day in the week, and on Sundays by two. They were frequently seen, always walking in his shadow, when he had one, but were finally driven away by the village notary, a holy man; but they took the peasant with them, for he vanished utterly. A devil thrown out of a woman by the Archbishop of Rheims ran through the trees, pursued by a hundred persons, until the open country was reached, where by a leap higher than a church spire he escaped into a bird. A chaplain in Cromwell's army exorcised a soldier's obsessing devil by throwing the soldier into the water, when the devil came to the surface. The soldier, unfortunately, did not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are too many people in the world who are claiming they are defending the president without the family's knowledge ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28221]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are too many people in the world who are claiming they are defending the president without the family's knowledge and we don't know who authorized them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need to bring that anger we had at St. Louis.
