For often what is one man's life may be another's death. Therefore you should observe yourself, whether your love for God is growing and your reverence is not destroyed. Then, the more frequently you go to the Sacrament, the better you will become, and the better and more profitable it will be. And therefore be not turned away from your God by words and sermons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14584]]></link><description><![CDATA[Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't pray for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13797]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't pray for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The royal kingcup bold Dares not don his coat of gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5139]]></link><description><![CDATA[The royal kingcup bold Dares not don his coat of gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The descent to the infernal regions is easy enough, but to retrace one's steps, and reach the air above, there's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51827]]></link><description><![CDATA[The descent to the infernal regions is easy enough, but to retrace one's steps, and reach the air above, there's the rub.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work is the greatest thing in the world, so we should always save some of it for tomorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Work is the greatest thing in the world, so we should always save some of it for tomorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of English Saints & Martyrs of the Reformation   God is always present, always available.
