If anyone with carefree assurance breaks into this place, he will not succeed in satisfying his curiosity and he will enter a labyrinth from which he can find no exit.

He has set forth by His Word the secrets of His will that He has decided to reveal to us. These He decided to reveal in so far as He foresaw that they would concern and benefit us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19641]]></link><description><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or eaten within twenty four hours.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh what people of God we ought to be; and grace can make us so! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34990]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh what people of God we ought to be; and grace can make us so!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had rather aske of my sire browne bread, then borrow of my neighbour white. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49501]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had rather aske of my sire browne bread, then borrow of my neighbour white.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Running is a great way to relieve stress and clear the mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Running is a great way to relieve stress and clear the mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is difficult not to write satire. [Lat., Difficile est satiram non scribere.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54706]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is difficult not to write satire. [Lat., Difficile est satiram non scribere.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Idealism springs from deep feelings, but feelings are nothing without the formulated idea that keeps them whole. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20256]]></link><description><![CDATA[Idealism springs from deep feelings, but feelings are nothing without the formulated idea that keeps them whole.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12346]]></link><description><![CDATA[I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale,  And nightly to the listening earth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale,  And nightly to the listening earth   Repeats the story of her birth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15516]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Are we really concerned about that stuff (environmental protection), or do we just want to speed things along?
