It has been said... truly that the Church exists for those outside of itself. The Church must never be in any sense a little huddle of pious people, shutting their doors against the world, lost in prayer and praise, connoisseurs of preaching and liturgy, busy mutually congratulating themselves on the excellence of their Christian experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After my injury, it could have gone either way, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37370]]></link><description><![CDATA[After my injury, it could have gone either way,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37370</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gratitude of most men is but a secret desire of receiving greater benefits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18156]]></link><description><![CDATA[The gratitude of most men is but a secret desire of receiving greater benefits.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People do not lack strength; they lack will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61626]]></link><description><![CDATA[People do not lack strength; they lack will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True is it that we have seen better days. -As You Like It.

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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friend is someone you can be alone with and have nothing to do and not be able to think ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16821]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friend is someone you can be alone with and have nothing to do and not be able to think of anything to say and be comfortable in the silence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[More light! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27980]]></link><description><![CDATA[More light!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55177]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are more references in the Koran thanthe Bible to Mary, the mother of Jesus.-Julia W-. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16728]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are more references in the Koran thanthe Bible to Mary, the mother of Jesus.-Julia W-.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When shall we find his equal? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50388]]></link><description><![CDATA[When shall we find his equal?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should...be able to see that our interest would be best served not by asking the state to promulgate our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47401]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should...be able to see that our interest would be best served not by asking the state to promulgate our values but by forbidding the state to promulgate any values at all.
