My poor friend Christopher Smart showed the disturbance of his mind, by falling upon his knees, and saying his prayers in the street, or in any other unusual place. Now although, rationally speaking, it is greater madness not to pray at all, than to pray as Smart did, I am afraid there are so many who do not pray, that their understanding is not called in question... I did not think he ought to be shut up. His infirmities were not noxious to society. He insisted on people praying with him; and I'd as lief pray with Kit Smart as any.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man delights not me--nor woman neither, though, by your smiling you seem to say so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11841]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man delights not me--nor woman neither, though, by your smiling you seem to say so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To write is to make oneself the echo of what cannot cease speaking -- and since it cannot, in order ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4681]]></link><description><![CDATA[To write is to make oneself the echo of what cannot cease speaking -- and since it cannot, in order to become its echo I have, in a way, to silence it.

But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will. -Grenville Kleiser.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65638]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3590]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The root of all superstition is that men observe when a thing hits, but not when it misses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58347]]></link><description><![CDATA[The root of all superstition is that men observe when a thing hits, but not when it misses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A pessimist only sees the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philosopher sees both sides and shrugs; an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45182]]></link><description><![CDATA[A pessimist only sees the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philosopher sees both sides and shrugs; an optimist doesn't see the clouds at all--he's walking on them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If heaven send no supplies, The fairest blossom of the garden dies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51916]]></link><description><![CDATA[If heaven send no supplies, The fairest blossom of the garden dies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His was the sort of career that made the Recording Angel think seriously about taking up shorthand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60554]]></link><description><![CDATA[His was the sort of career that made the Recording Angel think seriously about taking up shorthand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O what is life, if we must hold it thus as wind-blown sparks hold momentary fire? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64137]]></link><description><![CDATA[O what is life, if we must hold it thus as wind-blown sparks hold momentary fire?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since you know all, and I nothing, tell me what I dreamed last night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49748]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since you know all, and I nothing, tell me what I dreamed last night.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49748</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a juried show.

You would be surprised if you knew how soon one begins to feel the shortness of the tether: of how many things, even in middle life, we have to say, "No time for that", "Too late now" and "Not for me". But Nature herself forbids you [young people] to share that experience. A more Christian attitude, which can be attained at any age, is that of leaving futurity in God's hands.
