Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Applause, mingled with boos and hisses, is about all that the average voter is able or willing to contribute to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18043]]></link><description><![CDATA[Applause, mingled with boos and hisses, is about all that the average voter is able or willing to contribute to public life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, Teacher, 373  Human and human-minded as men were, therefore, to whichever side ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8189]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, Teacher, 373  Human and human-minded as men were, therefore, to whichever side they looked in the sensible world, they found themselves taught the truth. Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To live you have to experiment, to have the ability to experiment you have to have confidence, to have confidence ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14653]]></link><description><![CDATA[To live you have to experiment, to have the ability to experiment you have to have confidence, to have confidence you have to be loved, to be loved you have to love]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10112]]></link><description><![CDATA[I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule of conversing with all descriptions of men on those topics that form their own peculiar professions and pursuits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just remember driving past and seeing the stadium and having to get off and going through there and not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41865]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just remember driving past and seeing the stadium and having to get off and going through there and not knowing where the entrance was and getting lost and having to ask people where to go and walking through with my bag and being kind of like, 'Where do I go?

The great creative acts and significant turning-points were recognized, either by the Church or by its historian, as determined by the Spirit. The Spirit confirmed and preserved the community from the outset, by the descent at Pentecost (Acts 2:4). The extension of the Gospel beyond Judea and the first mission to the Gentiles were commanded and approved by the Spirit (Acts 8:29, 10:19, 44, 13:2, 4). Paul, on his journeys, was led by the Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). He himself was especially conscious that his whole ministry was inspired by the Holy Ghost (Rom. 15:18,19). All the apostles were conspicuously men of the Spirit.
