But this inward work of God, though never ceasing or altering, is yet always and only hindered by the activity of our own nature and faculties, by bad men through their obedience to earthly passions and by good men through their striving to be good in their own way, by their natural strength and a multiplicity of holy labours and contrivances. Both these sorts of people obstruct the work of God upon their souls. For we can cooperate with God no other way than by submitting to the work of God, and seeking, and leaving ourselves to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brevity is the best recommendation of speech, whether in a senator or an orator ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4877]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brevity is the best recommendation of speech, whether in a senator or an orator]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's kicking, so he's alive and active. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42637]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's kicking, so he's alive and active.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The evil of riches, then, for institutions, for nations, for individuals, is that those who possess or seek to possess ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6496]]></link><description><![CDATA[The evil of riches, then, for institutions, for nations, for individuals, is that those who possess or seek to possess almost invariably overvalue possessions and so cease to live creatively.

But the constraint of which I have been speaking is of a wholly different kind; it is a constraint to be pure-minded and loyal-hearted, to be kind and true and tender, and to love my neighbour as myself. And what could possibly be meant by saying that any reality of an impersonal kind could exercise over me such a constraint as that? I have never been able to see that it could mean anything at all. I have never been able to see how any being that is not a person could possess a moral and spiritual claim over me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good manners have much to do with emotions.
