Faith gives stability to our view of the universe. By faith we are convinced that our impressions of things without are not dreams or delusions, but, for us, true representations of our environment. By faith we are convinced that the signs of permanence, order, progress, which we observe in nature are true. By faith we are convinced that fellowship is possible with our fellow man and with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet babe, in thy face Soft desires I can trace,  Secret joys and secret smiles,   Little pretty ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3625]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweet babe, in thy face Soft desires I can trace,  Secret joys and secret smiles,   Little pretty infant wiles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Still rolls and to all time shall roll the tumbling flood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50326]]></link><description><![CDATA[Still rolls and to all time shall roll the tumbling flood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But I do hate him as I hate the devil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18856]]></link><description><![CDATA[But I do hate him as I hate the devil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest problem for most people is affording the health care they need, even with Medicare.

This obsession with roots will be felt especially keenly by foundlings, who often have no way of exploring their family histories.] I notice that genealogical sites now have warnings on them saying people should be ready for little surprises, ... They're not all going to find themselves descended from King Henry VIII or Richard Cur de Lion or Wellington. This is rather strange because it was pretty taken for granted a few generations ago that families had all kinds of little moments where things had gone not according to the book. It was just one of those things. You tried to accommodate it. There was no social welfare. You just had to sort it out within villages, the families, the parish. Children went to the workhouse, but people knew about it. Nowadays, there's a kind of surprise that these cases were so commonplace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who mix'd reason with pleasure, and wisdom with mirth; If he had any faults, he has left us in doubt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who mix'd reason with pleasure, and wisdom with mirth; If he had any faults, he has left us in doubt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The road to success runs uphill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/925]]></link><description><![CDATA[The road to success runs uphill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where Shall I Wander ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38731]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where Shall I Wander]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2399]]></link><description><![CDATA[This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face, the beauty of the earth and skies that man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46565]]></link><description><![CDATA[Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face, the beauty of the earth and skies that man has inherited and the wealth and confusion man has created.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success.
