Thine I am, O spotless Lamb; I will suffer naught to hide Thee,  Ask for naught beside Thee. In Thine arm I rest me; foes who would molest me  Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking,  God dispels our fear. Sin and hell in conflict fell With their heaviest storms assail us:  Jesus will not fail us. Hence, all thoughts of sadness! For the Lord of gladness,  Jesus, enters in: Those who love the Father, though the storms may gather,  Still have peace within; Yes, whate'er we here must bear, Still in Thee lies purest pleasure,  Jesus, priceless treasure!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Care must be taken that the punishment does not exceed the offence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Care must be taken that the punishment does not exceed the offence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only man who behaved sensibly was my tailor; he took my measurement anew every time he saw me, while ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5544]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only man who behaved sensibly was my tailor; he took my measurement anew every time he saw me, while all the rest went on with their old measurements and expected them to fit me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lindsay has invited quite a few of her friends to the house to meet Pang. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30494]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lindsay has invited quite a few of her friends to the house to meet Pang.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17397]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Until divers go down and actually examine the rigs and engineers can make estimates on the repair times, we just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37321]]></link><description><![CDATA[Until divers go down and actually examine the rigs and engineers can make estimates on the repair times, we just won't know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taste is, so to speak, the microscope of the judgment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58656]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taste is, so to speak, the microscope of the judgment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58656</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5885]]></link><description><![CDATA[I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The morning Sunne never lasts a day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49897]]></link><description><![CDATA[The morning Sunne never lasts a day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our mayor, who was very busy last year learning how to be a mayor, this year actually took a wonderful ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30835]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our mayor, who was very busy last year learning how to be a mayor, this year actually took a wonderful leadership role, got into the budget with both feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They received the use of the five operations of the Lord and in the sixth place he imparted them understanding, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55127]]></link><description><![CDATA[They received the use of the five operations of the Lord and in the sixth place he imparted them understanding, and in the seventh speech, an interpreter of the cogitations thereof.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is much that is bad and meaningless in the universe, and the universe contains men who know that much ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8340]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is much that is bad and meaningless in the universe, and the universe contains men who know that much is bad and meaningless.

For where unification has been able to establish unity of ideas it has usually ended in uniformity, paralysing the growth of new ideas. And where the unification has merely brought about an artificial or imposed unity, its irksomeness has led through discord to disruption.Vitality springs from diversity- which makes for real progress so long as there is mutual toleration, based on the recognition that worse may come from an attempt to suppress differences than from acceptance of them. For this reason, the kind of peace that makes progress possible is best assured by the mutual checks created by a balance of forces- alike in the sphere of internal politics and of international relations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We dance round in a ring and suppose, While the secret sits in the middle and knows ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55005]]></link><description><![CDATA[We dance round in a ring and suppose, While the secret sits in the middle and knows]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes in our confusion, we see not the world as it is, but the world though eyes blurred by the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes in our confusion, we see not the world as it is, but the world though eyes blurred by the mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We'll have a short presentation.
