Our environment itself -- our home and our job -- is the medium through which we experience His moulding action and His besetting love. It is not Christian to try to get out of our frame, or to separate our outward life from our life of prayer, since both are the creation of one Charity. The third-rate little town in the hills, with its limited social contacts and monotonous manual work, reproves us when we begin to fuss about our opportunities and our score. And this quality of quietness, ordinariness, simplicity, with which the saving action of God enters history, endures from the beginning to the end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All Life needs for life is possible to will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61609]]></link><description><![CDATA[All Life needs for life is possible to will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even the richest soil, if left uncultivated will produce the rankest weeds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even the richest soil, if left uncultivated will produce the rankest weeds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who aspires must down as low As high he soar'd. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50661]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who aspires must down as low As high he soar'd.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took me 17 years to get 3,000 hits, but I did it in one afternoon on the golf course. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17809]]></link><description><![CDATA[It took me 17 years to get 3,000 hits, but I did it in one afternoon on the golf course.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thank God for poverty That makes and keeps us free,  And lets us go our unobtrusive way,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47878]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thank God for poverty That makes and keeps us free,  And lets us go our unobtrusive way,   Glad of the sun and rain,    Upright, serene, humane,     Contented with the fortune of a day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19636]]></link><description><![CDATA[Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She couldn't have played without it.
