O Conqueror renowned! O Source of peace ineffable,   In whom all joys are found:  When once you visit darkened hearts   Then truth begins to shine, Then earthly vanity departs,   Then kindles love divine. O Jesus, light of all below,   The fount of life and fire,  Surpassing all the joys we know,   All that we can desire: May ev'ry heart confess your name,   Forever you adore, And, seeking you, itself inflame   To seek you more and more! Oh, may our tongues forever bless,   May we love you alone  And ever in our lives express   The image of your own!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ajax the great . . . Himself a host. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18260]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ajax the great . . . Himself a host.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18260</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Propaganda is a soft weapon; hold it in your hands too long, and it will move about like a snake, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37517]]></link><description><![CDATA[Propaganda is a soft weapon; hold it in your hands too long, and it will move about like a snake, and strike the other way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That woman is a blessing from God.

Any attempts to hide behind the excuse that it is too difficult, when what we mean is that its word is too hard for us to bear, meets the just remark of a pastor from Communist Germany: "How can they say that the Bible is difficult, when young Communists are poring over much more difficult and much more technical literature to discover what Communism is all about?" Sometimes the Biblical teaching is crystal-clear, but we dare not understand it. The Christian Church has a vested interest in its present forms, and Christian people, like others, have their pleasant prejudices. This unwillingness to hear some new thing, except in times of great disturbance, plays a bigger part in weakening the voice of God through the Bible than we are prepared to admit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691   I apprehended it a Matter of great Necessity to imprint ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8326]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691   I apprehended it a Matter of great Necessity to imprint true catholicism on the Minds of Christians, it being a most lamentable thing to observe how few Christians in the World there be, that fall not into one Sect or another .... And if they can but get to be of a Sect which they think the holiest (as the Anabaptists and the Separatists), or which is the largest (as the Greeks and the Romans), they think then that they are sufficiently warranted to deny others to be God's Church, or at least to deny them Christian love and communion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One stops being a child when one realizes that telling one's trouble does not make it better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26586]]></link><description><![CDATA[One stops being a child when one realizes that telling one's trouble does not make it better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wild oats make a bad autumn crop. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60517]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wild oats make a bad autumn crop.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58845]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['T is my vocation, Hal; 't is no sin for a man to labour in his vocation. -King Henry IV. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55838]]></link><description><![CDATA['T is my vocation, Hal; 't is no sin for a man to labour in his vocation. -King Henry IV.
