If he have not the true God to bless and sustain him, he will have some false god to delude and to betray him. The Psalmist knew this, and therefore he joined so closely forgetting the name of our God and holding up our hands to some strange god. For every man has something in which he hopes, on which he leans, to which he retreats and retires, with which he fills up his thoughts in empty spaces of time, when he is alone, when he lies sleepless on his bed, when he is not pressed with other thoughts; to which he betakes himself in sorrow or trouble, as that from which he shall draw comfort and strength -- his fortress, his citadel, his defence; and has not this a good right to be called his god? Man was made to lean on the Creator; but if not on Him, then he leans on the creature in one shape or another. The ivy cannot grow alone: it must twine round some support or other; if not the goodly oak, then the ragged thorn -- round any dead stick whatever, rather than have no stay or support at all. It is even so with the heart and affections of man; if they do not twine around God, they must twine around some meaner thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let the straight-limbed laugh at the club-footed, the white skinned at the blackamoor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50465]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let the straight-limbed laugh at the club-footed, the white skinned at the blackamoor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is HUGE! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23143]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is HUGE!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was necessary for us to discover greater powers of destruction than our enemies.

But if these holy places, things, and days cease to remind us, if they obliterate our awareness that all ground is holy and every bush (could we but perceive it) a Burning Bush, then the hallows begin to do harm. Hence both the necessity, and the perennial danger, of "religion".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gracefulness has been defined to be the outward expression of the inward harmony of the soul ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18075]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gracefulness has been defined to be the outward expression of the inward harmony of the soul]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cease, every joy, to glimmer in my mind, But leave,--oh! leave the light of Hope behind! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19770]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cease, every joy, to glimmer in my mind, But leave,--oh! leave the light of Hope behind!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When every one is in the wrong, every one is in the right. [Fr., Quand tout le monte a tort, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14162]]></link><description><![CDATA[When every one is in the wrong, every one is in the right. [Fr., Quand tout le monte a tort, tout le monde a raison.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We get the kids involved.
