This losing of things is the mercy of God: it comes to teach us to let them go. Or have I forgotten a thought that came to me, which seemed of the truth? I keep trying and trying to call it back, feeling a poor man until that thought be recovered -- to be far more lost, perhaps, in a notebook into which I shall never look again to find it! I forget that it is live things that God cares about.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we're hoping for is to come up with a generalized plan of how people want to see the town ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36879]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we're hoping for is to come up with a generalized plan of how people want to see the town develop.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not a big birthday guy; I never have been. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66515]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm not a big birthday guy; I never have been.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of English Saints & Martyrs of the Reformation  If it be the earnest desire and longing of your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7246]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of English Saints & Martyrs of the Reformation  If it be the earnest desire and longing of your heart to be merciful as He is merciful; to be full of His unwearied patience, to dwell in His unalterable meekness; if you long to be like Him in universal, impartial love; if you desire to communicate every good to every creature that you are able; if you love and practice everything that is good, righteous, and lovely for its own sake, because it is good, righteous, and lovely; and resist no evil but with goodness; then you have the utmost certainty that the Spirit of God dwells and governs in you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And circumstance, that unspiritual god, And miscreator, makes and helps along  Our coming evils, with a critch-like rod,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8701]]></link><description><![CDATA[And circumstance, that unspiritual god, And miscreator, makes and helps along  Our coming evils, with a critch-like rod,   Whose touch turns hope to dust--the dust we all have trod.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll privily away; I love the people, But do not like to stage me to their eyes;  Though it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2927]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll privily away; I love the people, But do not like to stage me to their eyes;  Though it do well, I do not relish well   Their loud applause and aves vehement,    Nor do I think the man of safe discretion     That does not affect it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Applaud friends, the comedy is over. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24127]]></link><description><![CDATA[Applaud friends, the comedy is over.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a physician, Senator Frist has a moral calling to save lives and alleviate suffering.

But if the other members also have sinned, why should they not fast, too... Let the eye fast from strange sights and from every wantonness, so that that which roamed in freedom in fault-doing may, abundantly humbled, be checked by penitence. Let the ear, blameably eager to listen, fast from tales and rumors, and from whatsoever is of idle import, and tendeth least to salvation. Let the tongue fast from slanders and murmurings, and from useless, vain, and scurrilous words, and sometimes also, in the seriousness of silence, even from things which may seem of essential import. Let the hand abstain from ... all toils which are not imperatively necessary. But also let the soul herself abstain from all evils and from acting out her own will. For without such abstinence the other things find no favor with the Lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only good luck many great men ever had was being born with the abilityand determination to overcome bad luck. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22080]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only good luck many great men ever had was being born with the abilityand determination to overcome bad luck.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We always try to be positive with the kids.
