We can so easily have talks with people, and they can say we have helped, write us grateful letters, even stand steady for a time till the juice we have put into them runs out; but, we may have brought them no hunger for God -- because that hunger is no ache in our own heart -- nor brought them anywhere near to the end of self.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn    September 13, 1999  Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407  Not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up in life. These are words by which the slanderers of the nature, of the body, the impeachers of our flesh, are completely overthrown... We do not wish to cast aside the body, but corruption: not the flesh, but death. The body is one thing, corruption another; the body is one thing, death another... What is foreign to us is not the body but corruptibility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never leave that till to-morrow which you can do to-day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59450]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never leave that till to-morrow which you can do to-day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oft in the tranquil hour of night, When stars illume the sky,  I gaze upon each orb of light, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/150]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oft in the tranquil hour of night, When stars illume the sky,  I gaze upon each orb of light,   And wish that thou wert by.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wild was the day; the wintry sea Moaned sadly on New England's strand,  When first the thoughtful and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11565]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wild was the day; the wintry sea Moaned sadly on New England's strand,  When first the thoughtful and the free,   Our fathers, trod the desert land.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Zeal without knowledge is like fire without light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28009]]></link><description><![CDATA[Zeal without knowledge is like fire without light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28009</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64111]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The getting out of doors is the greatest part of the journey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48929]]></link><description><![CDATA[The getting out of doors is the greatest part of the journey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no question average selling prices are dropping all over the marketplace, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35149]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's no question average selling prices are dropping all over the marketplace,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What a beard hast thou got! thou hast got more hair on thy chin than Dobbin my thill-horse has on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51407]]></link><description><![CDATA[What a beard hast thou got! thou hast got more hair on thy chin than Dobbin my thill-horse has on his tail.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I sell liquor, its called bootlegging; when my patrons serve it on Lake Shore Drive, its called hospitality ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13012]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I sell liquor, its called bootlegging; when my patrons serve it on Lake Shore Drive, its called hospitality]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are the children of a technological age.
