Born in a manger, and crucified as a malefactor, He now controls the destinies of the civilized world, and rules a spiritual empire which embraces one-third of the inhabitants of the globe. There never was in this world a life so unpretending, modest, and lowly in its outward form and condition, and yet producing such extraordinary effects upon all ages, nations, and classes of men. The annals of history produce no other example of such complete and astonishing success in spite of the absence of those material, social, literary, and artistic powers and influences which are indispensable to success for a mere man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fundamental idea of modern capitalism is not the right of the individual to possess and enjoy what he has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5229]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fundamental idea of modern capitalism is not the right of the individual to possess and enjoy what he has earned, but the ;thesis that the exercise of this right redounds to the general good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Although I enjoyed writing Film Music it was always a means to an end, in that it enabled me to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41338]]></link><description><![CDATA[Although I enjoyed writing Film Music it was always a means to an end, in that it enabled me to keep a wife and family and write my classical music, which has always been my passion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those pigmy tribes of Panton street, Those hardy blades, those hearts of oak,  Obedient to a tyrant's yoke. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13899]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those pigmy tribes of Panton street, Those hardy blades, those hearts of oak,  Obedient to a tyrant's yoke.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An injury may prove a blessing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50709]]></link><description><![CDATA[An injury may prove a blessing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50709</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I ought to consider the business which occurs in the daily order of Providence as the work which God appoints ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7537]]></link><description><![CDATA[I ought to consider the business which occurs in the daily order of Providence as the work which God appoints me; and I should apply myself to it in a manner worthy of God, namely, with exactness and with tranquility. I ought not to neglect anything or be passionately vehement about anything, for it is dangerous to do the work of the Lord negligently, on the one hand; or, on the other, to appropriate it to ourselves by self-love and false zeal. In this latter case, our actions arise from a principle of self-will: we are eager and anxious for the success, and that under the pretense of seeking the glory of God. O, God, grant me Thy grace to enable me to be faithful in action and resigned in success! My only business is to do Thy will, and to do it as Thy will, not forgetting Thee in the performance of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This world crisis came about without women having anything to do with it.
