Thou art wise when thou art poor, without desire of this world, and despisest thyself for the love of Jesus Christ; and expendeth all thy wit and all thy might in His service. Whoso will love wisely, it behoves him to love lasting things lastingly, and passing things passingly; so that his heart be set and fastened on nothing but in God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A brute without a single redeeming point. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50421]]></link><description><![CDATA[A brute without a single redeeming point.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anytime a kid wins, it's awesome, and I'm so excited for the guys who do make it.

I enjoy my family and cutting the grass at home. There's more in life than golf. I enjoy the game but I don't know if I could do it every day. If I go practice, I practice for an hour. The guys out here practice for six hours. I couldn't do that. I've never had the length, I'm not that strong of a guy. I hit it 250, 260, I hit it very straight and I'm not a bad putter. You have to do this all the time to get the nerves.

But there in hell--that is, beyond a fixed boundary set by God--all the securities and safeguards disappear into thin air. What here is only a tiny flame of secret self-reproach that flickers up occasionally and is quickly smothered, there becomes a scorching fire. What here is no more than a slight ticking sound in our conscience suddenly becomes the trumpet tone of judgment which can no longer be ignored. Lazarus is permitted to see what he believed, but the rich man is compelled to see what he did not believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Productivity is being able to do things that you were never able to do before. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Productivity is being able to do things that you were never able to do before.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joking set aside. [Lat., Omissis jocis.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joking set aside. [Lat., Omissis jocis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Writing a book is an adventure.
