We are today overrun with orthodox scribes; but the prophets, where are they? The hard voice of the scribe sounds over evangelicalism, but the Church waits for the tender voice of the saint who has penetrated the veil and has gazed with inward eye upon the Wonder that is God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis toil's reward, that sweetens industry, As love inspires with strength the enraptur'd thrush. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62100]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis toil's reward, that sweetens industry, As love inspires with strength the enraptur'd thrush.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Concentrate, play your game, and don't be afraid to win. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29127]]></link><description><![CDATA[Concentrate, play your game, and don't be afraid to win.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2205]]></link><description><![CDATA[You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you.
