Your faith is something everyone knows, for everyone knows that Christ was [crucified], and that everywhere men pray to Him. The whole world knows that His glory has not been spread by force and weapons, but by poor fishermen. 0 wise man, do you think the poor fishermen were not clever enough for this? Where they worked, there they made hearts better; where they could not work, there men remained bad; and therefore was the faith true and from God. The signs which the Lord had promised followed their teaching: in His name they drove out the devil; they spoke in new tongues; if they drank any deadly drink, they received therefrom no harm. Even if these wonders had not occurred, there would have been the wonder of wonders, that poor fishermen without any miracle could accomplish so great a work as the faith. It came from God, and so is Christ true, and Christ is thy God, who is in heaven and awaits thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[General jackdaw culture, very little more than a collection of charming miscomprehensions, untargeted enthusiasms, and a general habit of skimming. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57020]]></link><description><![CDATA[General jackdaw culture, very little more than a collection of charming miscomprehensions, untargeted enthusiasms, and a general habit of skimming.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My own idea is that these things are as piffle before the wind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32313]]></link><description><![CDATA[My own idea is that these things are as piffle before the wind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Romans, countrymen, and lovers, hear me for my cause, and be silent, that you may hear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18991]]></link><description><![CDATA[Romans, countrymen, and lovers, hear me for my cause, and be silent, that you may hear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Aristotle said , , , melancholy men of all others are most witty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61808]]></link><description><![CDATA[Aristotle said , , , melancholy men of all others are most witty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61808</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Same-sex marriage is not the future. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65348]]></link><description><![CDATA[Same-sex marriage is not the future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65348</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64664]]></link><description><![CDATA[To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64664</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first men that our Saviour dear Did choose to wait upon Him here,  Blest fishers were; and fish ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16099]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first men that our Saviour dear Did choose to wait upon Him here,  Blest fishers were; and fish the last   Food was, that He on earth did taste:    I therefore strive to follow those,     Whom He to follow Him hath chose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44810]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every day before school, I would bang away on Czerny, Bach, Beethoven and Mozart-and throw in a little Jerry Lee ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every day before school, I would bang away on Czerny, Bach, Beethoven and Mozart-and throw in a little Jerry Lee Lewis when I thought no one was around to correct me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What more would you have?
