We do not get the soul in different ways, under different laws, from those in which we get the body and the mind. If a man does not exercise his arm, he develops no biceps muscles and if a man does not exercise his soul, he acquires no muscle in his soul, no strength of character, no vigour of moral fibre, nor beauty of spiritual growth. Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character -- the Christ-like nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Impossible' is not a scientific term. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20655]]></link><description><![CDATA['Impossible' is not a scientific term.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we were to ask the brain how it would like to be treated, whether shaken at a random, irregular ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52432]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we were to ask the brain how it would like to be treated, whether shaken at a random, irregular rate, or in a rhythmic, harmonious fashion, we can be sure that the brain, or for that matter the whole body, would prefer the latter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I watched the replay five times and it wasn't a foul.

He has enough light to light him on his way, but there are a great many gaps in his knowledge. When he says, "One day we shall understand", he is by no means always uttering a pious platitude. Quite frequently he is voicing a solid conviction, a genuine facet of hope. At present his vision is severely limited, and that is probably just as well, if his sanity is to be preserved. But when he is free of the limitations of temporal life, he has every hope of being able to know as surely as he is at present known.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Daniel still say I, a second Daniel! I thank thee, Jew, for teaching me that word. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51416]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Daniel still say I, a second Daniel! I thank thee, Jew, for teaching me that word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas how difficult is it to preserve a high reputation! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51582]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas how difficult is it to preserve a high reputation!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice.
