Nor will it take comfort in the thought that God is dead, or that mankind has come of age, or even in ecumenical negotiations for writing off Papal Infallibility against the validity of Anglican Orders. The only means of satisfying it remains that bread of life which Jesus offered, with the promise that those who are of it should never hunger again. The promise stands.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After a pretty devastating loss last Friday, I wondered how the players would respond but I knew everything would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38074]]></link><description><![CDATA[After a pretty devastating loss last Friday, I wondered how the players would respond but I knew everything would be fine when I got to practice on Monday.

If war exhausts our treasury, future industry will replenish it. If war desiccate and lay waste our fields, under new cultivation they will grow green again and ripen to future harvest. If the walls of yonder Capitol should fall and its decorations be covered by the dust of battle, all these can be rebuilt. But who shall reconstruct the fabric of a demolished government; who shall dwell in the well-proportioned columns of constitutional liberty; who shall frame together the skillful architecture which unites sovereignty with state's rights, individual security with prosperity?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now a' is done that men can do, And a' is done in vain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now a' is done that men can do, And a' is done in vain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They come out to enjoy the food, enjoy the music.

Jesus says that His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it... Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can nnot be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow -- in which no work can be done, any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have no will to change it, you have no right to criticize it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10725]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have no will to change it, you have no right to criticize it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They can't give endorsements, but they can at least lead you to three or four people in your geographic area ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35351]]></link><description><![CDATA[They can't give endorsements, but they can at least lead you to three or four people in your geographic area that you can meet with.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The stern delight that warriors feel In foemen worthy of their steel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51108]]></link><description><![CDATA[The stern delight that warriors feel In foemen worthy of their steel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can provide any number of medical [or] social work interventions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39427]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can provide any number of medical [or] social work interventions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mandate for equal opportunity doesn't dictate disregard for the differences in candidates' qualities and skills.
