It may fill him with a self-righteousness which rejoices in its own superiority to those who have had no like experience. It may move a man to a Pharisaic self-isolation. There have in fact been not a few so-called conversions as a result of which a man has left the Church to belong to some smaller and holier body. The plain truth is that such a one should very seriously examine himself, if he finds what he regards as his Christian experience separating him from his fellow-men, or his fellow-Christians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Parent of golden dreams, Romance! Auspicious queen of childish joys,  Who lead'st along, in airy dance,   Thy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Parent of golden dreams, Romance! Auspicious queen of childish joys,  Who lead'st along, in airy dance,   Thy votive train of girls and boys.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An infant when it gazes on a light, A child the moment when it drains the breast,  A devotee ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23418]]></link><description><![CDATA[An infant when it gazes on a light, A child the moment when it drains the breast,  A devotee when soars the Host in sight,   An Arab with a stranger for a guest,    A sailor when the prize has struck in fight,     A miser filling his most hoarded chest,      Feel rapture; but not such true joy are reaping       As they who watch o'er what they love while sleeping.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our Adversary majors in three things: noise, hurry and crowds.

Wherever, in any world, a soul, by free-willed obedience, catches the fire of God's likeness, it is set into the growing walls, a living stone. When, in your hard fight, in your tiresome drudgery, or in your terrible temptation, you catch the purpose of your being and give yourself to God, and so give Him the chance to give Himself to you, your life -- a living stone -- is taken up and set into that growing wall. Wherever souls are being tried and ripened, in whatever commonplace and homely ways, there God is hewing out the pillars for His temple. Oh, if the stone can only have some vision of the temple of which it is to be a part forever, what patience must fill it as it feels the blows of the hammer, and knows that success for it is simply to let itself be wrought into what shape the Master wills.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we hire new coaches we have to ask what ideas they have for raising funds to support the program, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35042]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we hire new coaches we have to ask what ideas they have for raising funds to support the program,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21305]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mankind has grown strong in eternal struggles and it will only perish though eternal peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45918]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mankind has grown strong in eternal struggles and it will only perish though eternal peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of evils one should choose the least. [Lat., Ex malis eligere minima oportere.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14302]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of evils one should choose the least. [Lat., Ex malis eligere minima oportere.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[During the parade, we didn't have any foot traffic.
