He loveth the Church, which He died to purchase, His own Body, and all the members of the Body, better than we can; He loveth us better and more wisely than we ourselves He who made us loveth us better than we who unmade ourselves; He who died for us, better than we who destroy ourselves: He who would sanctify us for a Holy Temple unto Himself, better than we who have defiled what He has hallowed. Fear we not, therefore, anything which threateneth, shrink we not back from anything which falleth on us. Rather let us, though with trembling, hold up our hearts to Him, to make them His Own, in what way He willeth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The character of a person is in direct proportion to hiscommitment to excellence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57667]]></link><description><![CDATA[The character of a person is in direct proportion to hiscommitment to excellence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57667</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They certainly give very strange names to diseases. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43662]]></link><description><![CDATA[They certainly give very strange names to diseases.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every perfect traveller always creates the country where he travels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59595]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every perfect traveller always creates the country where he travels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many (companies) in fact believe that (employees) are less effective in their jobs when 'dressed down', ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40054]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many (companies) in fact believe that (employees) are less effective in their jobs when 'dressed down',]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of François de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, Teacher, 1622   Be patient, not only with respect to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7311]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of François de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, Teacher, 1622   Be patient, not only with respect to the main trials which beset you, but also under the accidental and accessory annoyances which arise out of them.
