It is not to be done in a day. We have not only a new house to build up, but an old one to pull down.   ... George Whitefield, letter   [Thanks to Bill Blake at pilgrimwb@aol.com]  September 7, 2000 Commemoration of Douglas Downes, Founder of the Society of Saint Francis, 1957 There are three lessons I would write,  Three words, as with a burning pen, In tracings of eternal light,  Upon the hearts of men. Have Hope. Though clouds environ round,  And gladness hides her face in scorn,  Put off the shadow from thy brow:  No night but hath its morn. Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is driven -  The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth - Know this: God rules the hosts of heaven,  The inhabitants of earth. Have Love. Not love alone for one,  But man, as man, thy brother call;  And scatter, like a circling sun,  Thy charities on all.   ... Friedrich von Schiller  September 8, 2000   Temptations and occasions put nothing into a man, but only draw out what was in him before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody has a family member or knows somebody who's been locked up, who's been murdered. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39769]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody has a family member or knows somebody who's been locked up, who's been murdered.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He misses playing.
