If the universe were a mere chaos of chances, or if it were a result of absolute necessity, there would be no place for intelligent prayer; but if it is under the control of a Lawgiver, wise and merciful, not a mere manager of material machinery, but a true Father of all, then we can come to such a Being with our requests -- not in the belief that we change His great plans, nor that any advantage could result from this if it were possible, but that these plans may be made in his boundless wisdom and love to meet our necessities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Agnes, Child Martyr at Rome, 304  At no point does the Gospel encourage us to believe that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6188]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Agnes, Child Martyr at Rome, 304  At no point does the Gospel encourage us to believe that every man will hearken to it, charm we never so wisely. The prophets, for all their passionate sincerity, for all their courageous simplifyings of the Gospel, will meet many deaf adders who stop their ears. We must reckon with this certain fact, and refuse to be daunted by it. But also there comes a point where accommodation can go no further. It is the Gospel we have to present, however we do it. We cannot hope to do it unless we walk humbly with the modern man, as well as with God, unless we are much more eager to learn from him and about him, than to instruct him. God help us, it is all very difficult. But was there ever a task better worth trying to do, or one in which, whether we fail or succeed, we more surely find our freedom?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We received a grant through the Discovery Project to visit the Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Historical Society, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30505]]></link><description><![CDATA[We received a grant through the Discovery Project to visit the Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Historical Society, and the Oregon Zoo.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those, who in quarrels interpose, Must often wipe a bloody nose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those, who in quarrels interpose, Must often wipe a bloody nose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46038]]></link><description><![CDATA[You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shall eagles not be eagles? wrens be wrens? If all the world were falcons, what of that?  The wonder ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13106]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shall eagles not be eagles? wrens be wrens? If all the world were falcons, what of that?  The wonder of the eagle were the less,   But he not less the eagle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rumor travels faster, but it don't stay put as long as truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46969]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rumor travels faster, but it don't stay put as long as truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every artist writes his own autobiography. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3532]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every artist writes his own autobiography.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Fisherman PipingA fisherman skilled in music took his flute and his nets to the seashore.

Standing on a projecting rock, he played several tunes in the hope that the fish, attracted by his melody, would of their own accord dance into his net, which he had placed below. At last, having long waited in vain, he laid aside his flute, and casting his net into the sea, made an excellent haul of fish. When he saw them leaping about in the net upon the rock he said: O you most perverse creatures, when I piped you would not dance, but now that I have ceased you do so merrily.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because, you know what your hours are going to be and they also have periods of time off within the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because, you know what your hours are going to be and they also have periods of time off within the season, that you just don't get on an hour show.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man maintains his balance, poise, and sense of security only as he is moving forward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man maintains his balance, poise, and sense of security only as he is moving forward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real theater of the sex war is the domestic hearth ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55279]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real theater of the sex war is the domestic hearth]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace is not a relationship of nations.
