Work and worship literally become one. Man's chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy him for ever; and man carries out that function when he does what God sent him into the world to do. Work well done rises like a hymn of praise to God. This means that the doctor on his rounds, the scientist in his laboratory, the teacher in his classroom, the musician at his music, the artist at his canvas, the shop assistant at his counter, the typist at her typewriter, the housewife in her kitchen -- all who are doing the work of the world as it should be done are joining in a great act of worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into thereoms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57878]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into thereoms.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Through tall cowslips nodding near you, Just to touch you as you pass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10540]]></link><description><![CDATA[Through tall cowslips nodding near you, Just to touch you as you pass.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thy wife is a constellation of virtues; she's the moon, and thou art the man in the moon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61873]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thy wife is a constellation of virtues; she's the moon, and thou art the man in the moon.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66126]]></link><description><![CDATA[A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that 'individuality' is the key to success.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It will be seen in the frying of the eggs. [Sp., Al freir de los huevos lo vera.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54042]]></link><description><![CDATA[It will be seen in the frying of the eggs. [Sp., Al freir de los huevos lo vera.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am blessed to have first been a salesperson. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40625]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am blessed to have first been a salesperson.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When two people decide to get a divorce, it isn't a sign that they "don't understand" one another, but a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12600]]></link><description><![CDATA[When two people decide to get a divorce, it isn't a sign that they "don't understand" one another, but a sign that they have, at last, begun to.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why is it drug addicts and computer aficionados are both called users? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/587]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why is it drug addicts and computer aficionados are both called users?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hast thou betrayed my credulous innocence With vizor'd falsehood and base forgery? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59633]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hast thou betrayed my credulous innocence With vizor'd falsehood and base forgery?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59633</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think our seniors will provide some good leadership.

This creates a chasm between us that admittedly will be very hard to bridge ... Our job is not to give the public what they think they want because what they want changes or is wrong. Look at how it changed after 9/11. Before 9/11 the public was less interested, according to every survey, in Islam or international news. After 9/11, they asked, 'How come you didn't tell us more about Islam and what was going on?' What the public wants is more about Brad and Angelina.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am fevered with the sunset, I am fretful with the bay,  For the wander-thirst is on me  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59622]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am fevered with the sunset, I am fretful with the bay,  For the wander-thirst is on me   And my soul is in Cathay.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59622</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those are rules that should be followed at any time, but they are even more necessary right now. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33989]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those are rules that should be followed at any time, but they are even more necessary right now.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12697]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Listen, my friend, there are two races of beings.

You will see at once that this is an impossibility.

The Bible characterizes men in such a state as "lost", and as being "without hope in the world"... And let no one suppose that such a term as "lost" is merely a bit of conventional theological jargon. It stands for a terrible reality, a reality which modern man in his modern predicament knows only too well from his own bitter experience. It gives rise to the voices of despair which haunt our radios, our newspapers, our fiction and poetry, our stage and screen, our doctors' offices, our hospital wards, our grisly nightmare of atomic war, and the conversation of common people who no sooner meet than they begin to bemoan the fate that has overtaken the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7438</guid></item></channel></rss>
