Jesus says His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it... Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow, in which no work can be done any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't need to have the pitchers ranked 1-2-3.

People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Under every stone lurks a politician. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29576]]></link><description><![CDATA[Under every stone lurks a politician.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before green apples blush, Before green nuts embrown,  Why, one day in the country   Is worth a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before green apples blush, Before green nuts embrown,  Why, one day in the country   Is worth a month in town.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Autumn wins you best by this, its mute Appeal to sympathy for its decay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3549]]></link><description><![CDATA[Autumn wins you best by this, its mute Appeal to sympathy for its decay.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of course we do not expect to be on the pace straight away.
