Yet they like to be considered as Christians, and listen willingly to the hypocrites who preach that our righteousness is only that God holds us to be righteous, even if we are bad people, and that our righteousness is without us and not in us, for, according to such teaching, they can be counted as holy people. Woe to those who preach that men of sinful walk can not be considered pious; most are furious when they hear this, as we see and experience, and would like all such preachers to be driven away or even killed; but where that cannot be done, they strengthen their hypocrite preachers with praise, comfort, presents and protection, so that they may go on happily and give no place to the truth, however clear it may be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't wish to imply that there aren't good things about you or that you're not an extraordinary person but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25940]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't wish to imply that there aren't good things about you or that you're not an extraordinary person but I'd rather let other people enjoy the surprise]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts.

It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.   ...

Babcock August 7, 2000 Commemoration of John Mason Neale, Priest, Poet, 1866   For all the vigour of his polemic, St. Paul does not content himself with the denunciation of error, but finds the best defense against its insidious approaches in a closer adherence to the love of God and faith in Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The weak in courage is strong in cunning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10844]]></link><description><![CDATA[The weak in courage is strong in cunning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If she's playing like she was today, she can be a one man team.
