Consider Christ's proceeding with Peter in the ship, in the storm: First he suffered him to be in some danger in the storm, but then he visits him with that strong assurance, "Be not afraid, It is I": any testimony of his presence rectifies all. This puts Peter into that spiritual confidence and courage, "Lord bid me come to thee"; he hath a desire to be with Christ, but yet stays his bidding: he puts not himself into an unnecessary danger, without commandment: Christ bids him, and Peter comes: but yet, though Christ were in his sight, and even in the actual exercise of his love to him, so soon as he saw a gust, a storm, "He was afraid"; and Christ lets him fear, and lets him sink, and lets him cry, but he directs his fear and his cry to the right end: "Lord, save me"; and thereupon he stretched forth his hand and saved him...   God puts his children into good ways, and he directs and protects them in those ways; for this is the constancy and perseverence of the love of Jesus Christ to us, as he is called in this text (Matt. 21:44), a stone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Judge not, that ye be not judged. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Judge not, that ye be not judged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As I saw fair Chloris walk alone, The feather'd snow came softly down,  As Jove, descending from his tow'r ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56709]]></link><description><![CDATA[As I saw fair Chloris walk alone, The feather'd snow came softly down,  As Jove, descending from his tow'r   To court her in a silver show'r.    The wanton snow flew to her breast,     As little birds into their nest;      But o'ercome with whiteness there,       For grief dissolv'd into a tear.        Thence falling on her garment hem,         To deck her, froze into a gem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56709</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Had I not sinned what would there be for you to pardon.

Many grown-ups will obstinately persist, if only now and then, in composing small strings of sentences in their heads and achieving at least momentary logic. This probably cannot be prevented, but we have learned how to minimize the consequences by arranging that such grown-ups will be unable to pursue that logic very far. If they were at home in the technology of writing, there's no telling how much social disorder they would cause by thinking things out at length.Our schools have chosen to cut this danger off as close to the root as possible, thus taking measures to preclude not only the birth of thought but its conception. They give the pill to even the youngest children, but just to be on the safe side, they give it to everybody else, too, especially all would-be schoolteachers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By many indignities we come to dignities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50973]]></link><description><![CDATA[By many indignities we come to dignities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28043]]></link><description><![CDATA[It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that time I was too famous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17606]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We exported commodities to Somalia. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42601]]></link><description><![CDATA[We exported commodities to Somalia.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life's real failure is when you do not realize how close you were to success when you gave up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14905]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life's real failure is when you do not realize how close you were to success when you gave up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O loss of sight, of thee I most complain! Blind among enemies, O worse than chains,  Dungeon, or beggary, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4339]]></link><description><![CDATA[O loss of sight, of thee I most complain! Blind among enemies, O worse than chains,  Dungeon, or beggary, or decrepit age!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approachyou than when you approach them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21176]]></link><description><![CDATA[You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approachyou than when you approach them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If one of us could ascend to the heavenly realm and for a few hours accompany the divine on His ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53311]]></link><description><![CDATA[If one of us could ascend to the heavenly realm and for a few hours accompany the divine on His daily rounds, he would see below millions of his fellow humans busily hurling themselves into the passions, sports, and action of those around him.
