But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Politics governs everything we do - the games we play, the way we play them, who we play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Politics governs everything we do - the games we play, the way we play them, who we play.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Night's black Mantle covers all alike.   - Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44521]]></link><description><![CDATA[Night's black Mantle covers all alike.   - Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No free man will ask as favor, what he can not claim as reward. [Lat., Neutiquam officium liberi esse hominis ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15483]]></link><description><![CDATA[No free man will ask as favor, what he can not claim as reward. [Lat., Neutiquam officium liberi esse hominis puto  Cum is nihil promereat, postulare id gratiae apponi sibi.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Maybe best pop female vocal, I am kind of keeping my fingers crossed but you never know what is going ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3581]]></link><description><![CDATA["Maybe best pop female vocal, I am kind of keeping my fingers crossed but you never know what is going on behind the scenes, but good bums come in all shapes and sizes''.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no reason to be the richest man in the cemetery.

It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Busy idleness urges us on. [Lat., Strenua nos exercet inertia.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Busy idleness urges us on. [Lat., Strenua nos exercet inertia.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Half the costs of illness are wasted on conditions that could be prevented. from the book"Total Wellness." -Dr. Joseph Pizzorno. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18965]]></link><description><![CDATA[Half the costs of illness are wasted on conditions that could be prevented. from the book"Total Wellness." -Dr. Joseph Pizzorno.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus to the Rose, the Thistle: Why art thou not of thistle-breed?  Of use thou'dst, then, be truly,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54422]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thus to the Rose, the Thistle: Why art thou not of thistle-breed?  Of use thou'dst, then, be truly,   For asses might upon thee feed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54422</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And rail'd on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms. -As You Like It.
