I love riches because they afford me the means of helping the very poor. I keep faith with everybody; I do not render evil to those who wrong me, but I wish them a situation like mine, in which I receive neither good nor evil from men. I try to be just, true, sincere, and faithful to all men; I have a tender heart for those to whom God has more closely united me; and whether I am alone, or seen by people, I do all my actions in the sight of God, who must judge them, and to whom I have consecrated them all. These are my sentiments; and every day of my life, I bless my Redeemer, who has implanted them in me, and who, out of a man full of weakness, of miseries, of lust, of pride, and of ambition, has made a man free from all these evils by the power of His grace, to which all the glory of it is due, as of myself I have only misery and error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The cult of the jellyfish is no less an imposition of a religious movementthan is the cult of the dinosaur. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48345]]></link><description><![CDATA[The cult of the jellyfish is no less an imposition of a religious movementthan is the cult of the dinosaur.

And here and there in the New Testament, we blunder in on Christ and find Him on His knees; and, once at least, ere we can escape, cannot but overhear Him pleading our names. "Neither pray I for these alone," that is, for Peter and John and the rest, "but for those who will believe through them"-- that is, for you and me. Hush! the Lord Christ is praying for you! And what is it He asks for us? That we be given such a spirit of unity and brotherliness and Christlikeness that people, coming upon us, will look at us, and look again, and then from us to Jesus Christ, seeking the explanation of us there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What may be done at any time will be done at no time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51881]]></link><description><![CDATA[What may be done at any time will be done at no time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But for a few phrases from his letters and an odd line or two of his verse, the poet walks ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4221]]></link><description><![CDATA[But for a few phrases from his letters and an odd line or two of his verse, the poet walks gagged through his own biography.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26392]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of nothing I have created a strange new universe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of nothing I have created a strange new universe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War is the unfolding of miscalculations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61169]]></link><description><![CDATA[War is the unfolding of miscalculations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The New England conscience does not stop you from doing what you shouldn't-it just stops you from enjoying it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32010]]></link><description><![CDATA[The New England conscience does not stop you from doing what you shouldn't-it just stops you from enjoying it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have concluded it is possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33938]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have concluded it is possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great thoughts, like great deeds, need No trumpet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59194]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great thoughts, like great deeds, need No trumpet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, we knocked the bastard off! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43304]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, we knocked the bastard off!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are so many men and women who hold no distinctive positions but whose contribution towards the development of society ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66437]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are so many men and women who hold no distinctive positions but whose contribution towards the development of society has been enormous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To love what you do and feel that it matters-how could anything be morefun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22081]]></link><description><![CDATA[To love what you do and feel that it matters-how could anything be morefun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The renewal of our natures is a work of great importance.
