Our danger lies in resisting Him; so it is essential that we acquire the habit of hearkening to His voice, or keeping silence within, and listening so as to lose nothing of what He says to us. We know well enough how to keep outward silence, and to hush our spoken words, but we know little of interior silence. It consists in hushing our idle, restless, wandering imagination, in quieting the promptings of our worldly minds, and in suppressing the crowd of unprofitable thoughts which excite and disturb the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Gregory the Great, Bishop of Rome, Teacher, 604   The task is not, in essence, the securing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Gregory the Great, Bishop of Rome, Teacher, 604   The task is not, in essence, the securing of uniformity, or cooperation, or Church reunion, or any of the external forms, through which nevertheless the unity may be manifested. Within the wide bounds of the Christian Church there is abundant scope for the multiplicity of races, languages, and social conditions; room also for separate organizations with different traditions of faith and order, and much diversity of operation. But there is no room for strife or hostility, for pride or selfassertion, for exclusiveness or unkind judgments, nor for that kind of independence which leads men to ignore their fellowship with the great company of believers, the communion of saints. These things are contrary to the revealed will of God, and should be made at once to cease. As these disappear, the outward manifestation of unity will come in such ways as the Spirit of God shall guide.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but the one who causes the darkness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11081]]></link><description><![CDATA[The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but the one who causes the darkness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nor sequent centuries could hit Orbit and sum of Shakespeare's wit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nor sequent centuries could hit Orbit and sum of Shakespeare's wit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The reason the pro tells you to keep your head down is so you can't see him laughing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17812]]></link><description><![CDATA[The reason the pro tells you to keep your head down is so you can't see him laughing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The London attack is one of the attacks that al Qaeda ... had the honour of carrying out against Zionist, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29806]]></link><description><![CDATA[The London attack is one of the attacks that al Qaeda ... had the honour of carrying out against Zionist, British arrogance, the aggression of the crusader British against the Muslim nation for over a hundred years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29806</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Destiny is something we've invented because we can't stand the fact that everything that happens is accidental. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62745]]></link><description><![CDATA[Destiny is something we've invented because we can't stand the fact that everything that happens is accidental.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4133]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Christmas Eve High o'er the lonely hills black turns to gray, Bird-song the valley fills, mists fold away Gray wakes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Christmas Eve High o'er the lonely hills black turns to gray, Bird-song the valley fills, mists fold away Gray wakes to green again, Beauty is seen again,  Gold and serene again dawneth the day. So, o'er the hills of life, stormy, forlorn, Out of the cloud and strife sunrise is born; Swift grows the light for us, Ended is night for us,  Soundless and bright for us breaketh God's morn. Hear we no beat of drums, fanfare, nor cry, When Christ the herald comes quietly nigh; Splendor He makes on earth; Color awakes on earth;  Suddenly breaks on earth light from the sky. Bid then farewell to sleep: rise up and run! What though the hill be steep? Strength's in the sun. Now you shall find at last Night's left behind at last,  And for mankind at last, Day has begun!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My plenteous joys, Wanton in fullness, seek to hide themselves  In drops of sorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23437]]></link><description><![CDATA[My plenteous joys, Wanton in fullness, seek to hide themselves  In drops of sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So there was this big slug of decaying material that introduced a big slug of nutrients into the system. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28178]]></link><description><![CDATA[So there was this big slug of decaying material that introduced a big slug of nutrients into the system.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I actually think sadness and darkness can be very beautiful and healing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65124]]></link><description><![CDATA[I actually think sadness and darkness can be very beautiful and healing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A true friend sticks with you through thick and thin no matter what. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16962]]></link><description><![CDATA[A true friend sticks with you through thick and thin no matter what.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bedfellows politics made are never strange.
