Make me truly thankful for that portion of health which Thy mercy has restored, and enable me to use the remains of life to Thy glory and my own salvation. Take not from me, O Lord, Thy Holy Spirit. Extinguish in my mind all sinful and inordinate desires. Let me resolve to do that which is right, and let me by Thy help keep my resolutions. Let me, if it is best for me, at last know peace and comfort, but whatever state of life Thou shalt appoint me, let me end it by a happy death, and enjoy eternal happiness in Thy presence, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A would-be satirist, a hired buffoon, A monthly scribbler of some low lampoon,  Condemn'd to drudge, the meanest of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23328]]></link><description><![CDATA[A would-be satirist, a hired buffoon, A monthly scribbler of some low lampoon,  Condemn'd to drudge, the meanest of the mean,   And furbish falsehoods for a magazine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hee that hath patience hath fatt thrushes for a farthing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hee that hath patience hath fatt thrushes for a farthing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not in the position where we need to sell anyone here, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32831]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are not in the position where we need to sell anyone here,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobodyappreciates how difficult it was. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9574]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobodyappreciates how difficult it was.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In chusing a wife, and buying a sword, we ought not to trust another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49535]]></link><description><![CDATA[In chusing a wife, and buying a sword, we ought not to trust another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death cometh soon or late;And how can man die betterThan facing fearful oddsFor the ashes of his fathersAnd the temples ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death cometh soon or late;And how can man die betterThan facing fearful oddsFor the ashes of his fathersAnd the temples of his gods?.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We may draw good out of evil; we must not do evil, that good may come. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11255]]></link><description><![CDATA[We may draw good out of evil; we must not do evil, that good may come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell.
