Jesus says that His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it.   Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow -- in which no work can be done, any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every theory of love, from Plato down teaches that each individual loves in the other sex what he lacks in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27185]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every theory of love, from Plato down teaches that each individual loves in the other sex what he lacks in himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pressure of getting an order right is greater than sinking a putt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29131]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pressure of getting an order right is greater than sinking a putt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29131</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why did men worship in churches, locking themselves away in the dark, when the world lay beyond its doors in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8661]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why did men worship in churches, locking themselves away in the dark, when the world lay beyond its doors in all its real glory?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never let formal education get in the way of your learning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24567]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never let formal education get in the way of your learning.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the ways to prevent a war is to be prepared for it.
