So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its flavor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens [reveals] God when a man's mind works that way; things all have this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are many who find the burdens, the anxiety, and the isolation of an individual existence unbearable.

This is particularly true when the opportunities for self-advancement are relatively meager, and one's individual interests and prospects do not seem worth living for. Such persons sooner or later turn their backs on an individual existence and strive to acquire a sense of worth and a purpose by an identification with a holy cause, a leader, or a movement. The faith and pride they derive from such an identification serve them as substitutes for the unattainable self-confidence and self-respect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No married man is genuinely happy if he has to drink worse whisky than he used to drink when he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26469]]></link><description><![CDATA[No married man is genuinely happy if he has to drink worse whisky than he used to drink when he was single.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm going to talk about civil rights for all people and how you really have to stand up for your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35433]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm going to talk about civil rights for all people and how you really have to stand up for your rights.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The finest poetry was first experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46760]]></link><description><![CDATA[The finest poetry was first experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our Lady of the Snows. [Lat., Notre Dames des Neiges.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56716]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our Lady of the Snows. [Lat., Notre Dames des Neiges.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Words have ruined more souls than any devil's agency. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56886]]></link><description><![CDATA[Words have ruined more souls than any devil's agency.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56886</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Domestic Happiness, thou only bliss Of Paradise that hast survived the Fall! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18647]]></link><description><![CDATA[Domestic Happiness, thou only bliss Of Paradise that hast survived the Fall!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Software is a great combination between artistry and engineering.
