It may be useful, too, to lay bare all the feelings, thoughts, and longings which are the result of your depression before some spiritual advisor, in all humility and faithfulness; to seek the society of spiritually minded people, and to frequent such as far as possible while you are suffering. And finally, resign yourself into God's hands, endeavoring to bear this harassing depression patiently.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The metaphor is perhaps one of man's most fruitful potentialities.

That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I find it painful and angering to look in a mirror. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36826]]></link><description><![CDATA[I find it painful and angering to look in a mirror.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624  The Church has always found it easier to fulfill her priestly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6551]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624  The Church has always found it easier to fulfill her priestly than her prophetic role. The temptation to institutionalism is always with us, and who will profess himself guiltless? We reduce Christianity to the service of an institution, the Church, for this enables us to be active in what is fondly called "the work of the Lord," while at the same time failing to grapple with the fundamental problem for all Christians, that of winning our generation for Christ. In our little circle of like-minded people we condemn outsiders because they do not come in. Perhaps we even make half-hearted attempts to get them to come in. And then we snuggle down again in the warmth of our fellowship, comforted that we have done all that might reasonably be expected of men in our situation. Fortified with this consolation we concentrate on keeping the institution, the Church, running as it should.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I can do the rock clubs if I have to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41175]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I can do the rock clubs if I have to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each man is the smith of his own fortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each man is the smith of his own fortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yeah, I know, some people are against drunk driving, and I call those people "the cops."
