I remember you and recall you without effort, without exercise of will; that is, by natural impulse, indicated by a sense of duty, or of obligation. And that, I take it, is the only sort of remembering worth the having. When we think of friends, and call their faces out of the shadows, and their voices out of the echoes that faint along the corridors of memory, and do it without knowing why save that we love to do it, we content ourselves that friendship is a Reality, and not a Fancy -- that it is built upon a rock, and not upon the sands that dissolve away with the ebbing tides and carry their monuments with them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Know'st thou not any whom corrupting gold Will tempt unto a close exploit of death? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58911]]></link><description><![CDATA[Know'st thou not any whom corrupting gold Will tempt unto a close exploit of death?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But you have signed an agreement with the Russians!

But if Christ is amongst us, then it is necessary that we sometimes yield up our own opinion for the sake of peace. Who is so wise as to have a perfect knowledge of all things? Therefore trust not too much to thine own opinion, but be ready also to hear the opinion of others. Though thine own opinion be good, yet if for the love of God thou foregoest it, and followest that of another, thou shalt the more profit thereby.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is the Rider that breakes youth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is the Rider that breakes youth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A long-term solution is creating a more market-driven terrorism insurance market in the sale of catastrophe risk bonds with some ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39194]]></link><description><![CDATA[A long-term solution is creating a more market-driven terrorism insurance market in the sale of catastrophe risk bonds with some presence of the government backing up insurers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In our minds, love and lust are really separated.

When in faith we come to God for cleansing from the mess we have made of things, and when we ask for power to reverse causes we have set in motion, God sends in other causes by His Holy Spirit. It may be by direct intervention, or by a combination of circumstances which He controls. We can, therefore, be delivered from the wrath to come, because God will add other causes than those that we have initiated.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7656</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She only said, My life is dreary, He cometh not, she said;  She said I am aweary, aweary,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51712]]></link><description><![CDATA[She only said, My life is dreary, He cometh not, she said;  She said I am aweary, aweary,   Oh God, that I were dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As to the mental essence, we find it in infants devoid of every mental form. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29752]]></link><description><![CDATA[As to the mental essence, we find it in infants devoid of every mental form.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death; but an early grave ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18228]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death; but an early grave may be the shortest way to heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O rare protector of the sheep, a wolf! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48859]]></link><description><![CDATA[O rare protector of the sheep, a wolf!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66114]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't worry about a thing, every little thing is gonna be alright ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't worry about a thing, every little thing is gonna be alright]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We call it 'invasion' because it's not just a concert, it's something that goes on all day for everyone that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38218]]></link><description><![CDATA[We call it 'invasion' because it's not just a concert, it's something that goes on all day for everyone that goes.

The one only and infallible way to go safely through all the difficulties, trials, temptations, dryness, or opposition of our own evil tempers is this: It is to expect nothing from ourselves, to trust to nothing in ourselves, but in everything to expect and depend upon God for relief. Keep fast hold of this thread, and then let your way be what it will -- darkness, temptation, or the rebellion of nature -- you will be led through it all, to an union with God: for nothing hurts us in any state but an expectation of some thing in it and from it, which we should only expect from God.
