We do not get the soul in different ways, under different laws, from those in which we get the body and the mind. If a man does not exercise his arm, he develops no biceps muscles and if a man does not exercise his soul, he acquires no muscle in his soul, no strength of character, no vigour of moral fibre, nor beauty of spiritual growth. Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character -- the Christ-like nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12697]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it will be reduced; $28 billion is a bit much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42055]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it will be reduced; $28 billion is a bit much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It certainly looks like [new claims] have peaked.

So, o'er the hills of life, stormy, forlorn, Out of the cloud and strife sunrise is born; Swift grows the light for us, Ended is night for us,  Soundless and bright for us breaketh God's morn. Hear we no beat of drums, fanfare, nor cry, When Christ the herald comes quietly nigh; Splendor He makes on earth; Color awakes on earth;  Suddenly breaks on earth light from the sky. Bid then farewell to sleep: rise up and run! What though the hill be steep? Strength's in the sun. Now you shall find at last Night's left behind at last,  And for mankind at last, Day has begun!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since twelve honest men have decided the cause, And were judges of fact, tho' not judges of laws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since twelve honest men have decided the cause, And were judges of fact, tho' not judges of laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! what would the world be to us  If the children were no more?
