Pleasures and habits and social customs which seem permissible enough, are seen for the dangerous things they are when they are seen in the light of God. Things which seem evils, hardship, toil, discipline, unpopularity, even persecution, are seen in their glory when they are seen in the light of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How can we speak of right and justice if we take an innocent creature and shedits blood?How can we pray ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27370]]></link><description><![CDATA[How can we speak of right and justice if we take an innocent creature and shedits blood?How can we pray to God for mercy if we ourselves have no mercy?Nobel laureate in literature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27370</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Darkness our guide, Despair our leader was. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12007]]></link><description><![CDATA[Darkness our guide, Despair our leader was.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 The shepherds sing; and shall I silent be?
