The fruits of the earth are the gift of God, and we pray for them as such; but yet we plant, and we sow, and we plough, for all that; and the hands which are sometimes lift up in prayer must at other times be put to the plough, or the husbandman must expect no crop. Everything must be effected in the way proper to its nature, with the concurrent influence of the divine grace, not to supersede the means, but to prosper and make them effectual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good Margaret, run thee to the parlor. There shalt thou find my cousin Beatrice  Proposing with the Prince and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19694]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good Margaret, run thee to the parlor. There shalt thou find my cousin Beatrice  Proposing with the Prince and Claudio.   Whisper her ear and tell her, I and Ursley    Walk in the orchard, and our whole discourse     Is all of her. Say that thou overheard'st us;      And bid her steal into the pleached bower,       Where honeysuckles, ripened by the sun,        Forbid the sun to enter--like favorites,         Made proud by princes, that advance their pride          Against that power that bred it. There will she hide her           To listen our propose. This is thy office.            Bear thee well in it and leave us alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief.

The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man possesses talent; genius possesses the man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58582]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man possesses talent; genius possesses the man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is very game.
