If I were to preach upon this text ("For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matt. 6:21), to such a glass, it would be enough for half the sermon, enough to show the worldly man his treasure, and the object of his Heart, to call his eye to that minute-glass, and to tell him, "There flows, there flies, your treasure, and your heart with it."   But if I had a secular glass, a glass that would run an age; if the two hemispheres of the world were composed in the form of such a glass, and all the world burnt to ashes, and all the ashes, and the sands, and atoms of the world put into that glass, it would not be enough to tell the godly man what his treasure, and the object of his heart is. A parrot will sooner be brought to relate to us the wisdom of a council table, than any Ambrose, or any Chrysostom, men that have gold and honey in their names, shall tell us what the treasure of heaven is, and that man's peace, that hath set his Heart upon that treasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You want to understand what the person across the table from you does for a living and how they do ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35352]]></link><description><![CDATA[You want to understand what the person across the table from you does for a living and how they do it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With his own weapon do I stab him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51756]]></link><description><![CDATA[With his own weapon do I stab him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64768]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by,  And that has made ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by,  And that has made all the difference.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some relate ... that the eagle tries the eyes of her young by turning them to the sun; which if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some relate ... that the eagle tries the eyes of her young by turning them to the sun; which if they cannot look steadily on, she rejects them as spurious.
