The way to keep it in peace is to enter into it by means of inward silence. When you see yourself more sharply assaulted, retreat into that region of peace; and you will find a fortress that will enable you to triumph over all your enemies, visible and invisible, and over all their snares and temptations. Within your own soul resides divine aid, and sovereign succour. Retreat within it, and all will be quiet, secure, peaceable, and calm. Thus, by means of mental silence, which can only be attained with divine help, you may look for tranquility in tumult: for solitude in company; for light in darkness; for forgetfulness in pressures: for vigour in despondency; for courage in fear; for resistance in temptation; and for quiet in tribulation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66241]]></link><description><![CDATA[No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66241</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[Feast of Vincent de Paul, Founder of the Congregation of the Mission (Lazarists), 1660   If you wanted a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7536]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Vincent de Paul, Founder of the Congregation of the Mission (Lazarists), 1660   If you wanted a label for us, would you find a better than a Sadducean Age? We also are not worrying about immortality, hardly believe in it, or at least are not sure; we, too, have limited ourselves to this dust-speck of time, leaving unclaimed the vast inheritance beyond of which Christ told us; we, too, are putting all our zeal and passion and enthusiasm into things of this earth here, quite sure that that is the only road to progress, and that this everlasting chatter about the soul is quite beside the point. And they are all so earnest and so certain, work so hard, are animated often by such lofty motives, are so sure that there is really no manner of need for Christ: that given this, and this, and this, each of them pushing forward his particular panacea -- the world will manage very well; that to talk about Christ, and changing people's hearts, and making us new creatures, is merely to lose precious time and wander from the practical into vague day-dreaming of which nothing comes. And year by year their voices grow a little harder, and they eye Christ more and more askance, feel sourly that He is a bit of a nuisance and a stumbling-block to progress, keeping people quiet who should not be quiet, lulling them with these dim, immaterial, fantastic, spiritual hopes of His which they think have no body, and can not have. Once more the whisper grows, "Were He not far better away?" Meantime we can ignore Him, they say; and they do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's an extremely vital tourist attraction.
