We shrink from the consequences of truth. We look round and cling dependently. We ask what men will think; what others will say; whether they will not stare in astonishment. Perhaps they will; but he who is calculating that, will accomplish nothing in this life. The Father -- the Father which is with us and in us -- what does He think? God's work cannot be done without a spirit of independence. A man is got some way in the Christian life when he has learned to say, humbly yet majestically, "I dare to be alone.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For African American ideals, ""The Promised Land"" is not a land to be ""reclaimed"" after hundreds, or even thousands, of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39187]]></link><description><![CDATA[For African American ideals, ""The Promised Land"" is not a land to be ""reclaimed"" after hundreds, or even thousands, of years, citing God as the real estate agent.

But thus much may we learn from these heathens, that if the dead, and we, be not upon one floor, nor under one story, yet we are under one roof. We think not a friend lost, because he has gone into another room, nor because he has gone into another land: and into another world, no man has gone; for that Heaven, which God created, and this world, is all one world... I spend none of my faith, I exercise none of my hope, in this, that I shall have my dead raised to life again. This is the faith that sustains me, when I lose by the death of others, or when I suffer by living in misery myself: that the dead and we are now all in one Church, and at the resurrection, shall be all in one Choir.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every single soul is a poem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every single soul is a poem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rumor forthwith flies abroad, dispersed throughout the small town. [Lat., Fama volat parvam subito vulgata per urbem.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54566]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rumor forthwith flies abroad, dispersed throughout the small town. [Lat., Fama volat parvam subito vulgata per urbem.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fair land! of chivalry the old domain, Land of the vine and olive, lovely Spain!  Though not for thee ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57312]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fair land! of chivalry the old domain, Land of the vine and olive, lovely Spain!  Though not for thee with classic shores to vie   In charms that fix th' enthusiast's pensive eye;    Yet hast thou scenes of beauty richly fraught     With all that wakes the glow of lofty thought.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57312</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The qualities of a great man are vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52631]]></link><description><![CDATA[The qualities of a great man are vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is like a hand of cards.
