Whenever, by exertion in any unselfish cause, health is broken or fortune impaired, or influential friends estranged, the follower of Christ is called an enthusiast, a fanatic, or even more plainly a man of unsound mind. He may be comforted by remembering that Jesus was said to be beside Himself when teaching and healing left Him not leisure even to eat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life in Lubbock, Texas, taught me two things: One is that God loves you and you're going to burn in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53601]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life in Lubbock, Texas, taught me two things: One is that God loves you and you're going to burn in hell.
