But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Princes are venison in Heaven. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Princes are venison in Heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest stage in moral culture at which we can arrive is when we recognize that we ought to control ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52429]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest stage in moral culture at which we can arrive is when we recognize that we ought to control our thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True politeness consists in being easy one's self, and in making every one about one as easy as one can ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46891]]></link><description><![CDATA[True politeness consists in being easy one's self, and in making every one about one as easy as one can]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By God, I cannot flatter, I do defy The tongues of soothers! but a braver place  In my heart's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16171]]></link><description><![CDATA[By God, I cannot flatter, I do defy The tongues of soothers! but a braver place  In my heart's love hath no man than yourself.   Nay, task me to my word; approve me, lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Women and cats do as they damned well please, and men and dogs had best learn to live with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59017]]></link><description><![CDATA[Women and cats do as they damned well please, and men and dogs had best learn to live with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primal duties shine aloft, like stars; The charities that soothe, and heal, and bless  Are scattered at the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13078]]></link><description><![CDATA[The primal duties shine aloft, like stars; The charities that soothe, and heal, and bless  Are scattered at the feet of Man, like flowers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His thinking was a little off and too complicated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42545]]></link><description><![CDATA[His thinking was a little off and too complicated.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The school decided to cancel the game. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37730]]></link><description><![CDATA[The school decided to cancel the game.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let him who has once perceived how much that, which has been discarded, excels that which he has longed for, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50293]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let him who has once perceived how much that, which has been discarded, excels that which he has longed for, return at once, and seek again that which he despised.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've said many a time that I think the Un-American Activities Committee in the House of Representatives was the most ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9765]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've said many a time that I think the Un-American Activities Committee in the House of Representatives was the most un-American thing in America!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Timothy and Titus, Companions of Paul Commemoration of Dorothy Kerin, Founder of the Burrswood Healing Community, 1963  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7135]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Timothy and Titus, Companions of Paul Commemoration of Dorothy Kerin, Founder of the Burrswood Healing Community, 1963  What knowledge of Jesus Christ and His teaching lay behind the flash of enlightenment it is now impossible for us to say: but it is clear that the God whom Paul met was the "Father" of Jesus' own Gospel parables, the Shepherd who goes after the one sheep until He finds it. It was the God, in fact, whom the whole of the life of Jesus set forth, to the astonishment of those among whom He moved. Loving still, He brought God to men in the same unmistakable way. The divine love that through Jesus had found the public an Zacchaeus had now through the risen Christ found Paul the Pharisee. Hence forward the central facts of life for Paul were that while he was yet a sinner God had found and forgiven him, and that this was the work of Jesus Christ, in whose love the love of God had become plain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57331]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57331</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been in a lot of trouble and come out of it.

For when the heart really pants and longs after God, its prayer is a praying, as moved and animated by the Spirit of God; it is the breath or inspiration of God, stirring, moving and opening itself in the heart. For though the early nature, our old man, can oblige or accustom himself to take heavenly words at certain times into his mouth, yet this is a certain truth, that nothing ever did, or can have the least desire or tendency to ascend to heaven, but that which came down from heaven; and therefore nothing in the heart can pray, aspire, and long after God, but the Spirit of God moving and stirring in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18076]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island cut off from other lands, but a continent that joins to them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature vicarye of the Almighty Lord. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature vicarye of the Almighty Lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to make this place so unpleasant that they won't even think about doing something that could bring them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38224]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want to make this place so unpleasant that they won't even think about doing something that could bring them back.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams are renewable.
