But if the other members also have sinned, why should they not fast, too... Let the eye fast from strange sights and from every wantonness, so that that which roamed in freedom in fault-doing may, abundantly humbled, be checked by penitence. Let the ear, blameably eager to listen, fast from tales and rumors, and from whatsoever is of idle import, and tendeth least to salvation. Let the tongue fast from slanders and murmurings, and from useless, vain, and scurrilous words, and sometimes also, in the seriousness of silence, even from things which may seem of essential import. Let the hand abstain from ... all toils which are not imperatively necessary. But also let the soul herself abstain from all evils and from acting out her own will. For without such abstinence the other things find no favor with the Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A boss creates fear, a leader confidence.

There are too many who are devout, but not students. They will not accept the discipline of study and of learning, and they even look with suspicion upon the further knowledge which study brings to men. There are equally too many who are students, but not devout. They are interested too much in intellectual knowledge, and too little in the life of prayer and in the life of service of their fellow men. A man would do well to aim at being not only a student, and not only devout, but at being a devout student.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Almighty in His infinite wisdom did not see fit to create Frenchmen in the image of Englishmen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13898]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Almighty in His infinite wisdom did not see fit to create Frenchmen in the image of Englishmen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never used a needle in my life.
