Take from me all slothfulness, and give me a diligent and an active spirit, and wisdom to choose my employment; that I may do works proportionable to my person and to the dignity of a Christian, and may fill up all the spaces of my time with actions of religion and charity; that, when the devil assaults me, he may not find me idle; and my dearest Lord, at his sudden coming, may find me busy in lawful, necessary, and pious actions, improving my talent entrusted to me by thee, my Lord; that I may enter into the joy of my Lord, to partake of his eternal felicities, even for thy mercy's sake, and for my dearest Saviour's sake.

Races and peoples, lo, we stand divided,  And, sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;  By wars and tumults love is mocked, derided  His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear. Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded, Nation by nation still goes unforgiven, In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,  Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven. Lust of possession worketh desolations;  There is no meekness in the sons of earth;  Led by no star, the rulers of the nations  Still fail to bring us to the blissful birth: How shall we love Thee, holy hidden Being,  If we love not the world which Thou hast made?  O give us brother-love for better seeing  Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11460]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essence of all beauty, I call love, The attribute, the evidence, and end,  The consummation to the inward ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3838]]></link><description><![CDATA[The essence of all beauty, I call love, The attribute, the evidence, and end,  The consummation to the inward sense   Of beauty apprehended from without,    I still call love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each honest calling, each walk of life, has its own elite, its own aristocracy based on excellence of performance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each honest calling, each walk of life, has its own elite, its own aristocracy based on excellence of performance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is simple.
