And man would praise Thee, because he is one of Thy creatures; yea, man, though he bears about with him his mortality, the proof of his sin, the proof that Thou, O God, dost resist the proud, yet would man praise Thee, because he is one of Thy creatures. Thou dost prompt us thereto, making it a joy to praise Thee; for Thou hast created us unto Thyself, and our heart finds no rest until it rests in Thee. Grant me, O Lord, to know and understand which comes first, to call upon Thee, or to praise Thee, and which comes first, to know Thee or to call upon Thee.  ... The Confessions of St. Augustine    August 29, 1998  Instead of pursuing her appointed path of separation, persecution, world-hatred, poverty, and non-resistance, [the Church] has used... Scripture to justify her in lowering her purpose to the civilization of the world, the acquisition of wealth, the use of an imposing ritual, the erection of magnificent churches, the invocation of God's blessing upon the conflicts of armies, and the division of an equal brotherhood into "clergy" and "laity".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is never too late to turn from the errors of our ways: He who repents of his sins is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53826]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is never too late to turn from the errors of our ways: He who repents of his sins is almost innocent.  [Lat., Nam sera nunquam est ad bonos mores via.   Quem peonitet peccasse, paene est innocens.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune befriends the bold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4470]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune befriends the bold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1328]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have always tried to hide my efforts and wished my works to have a light joyousness of springtime which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63029]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have always tried to hide my efforts and wished my works to have a light joyousness of springtime which never lets anyone suspect the labors it has cost me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone that wants the presidency so much that he'll spend two years organizing and campaigning for it is not to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47001]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone that wants the presidency so much that he'll spend two years organizing and campaigning for it is not to be trusted with the office.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is like a pre-state event.
