Faith says not, "I see that it is good for me, so God must have sent it," but, "God sent it, and so it must be good for me." Faith, walking in the dark with God, only prays Him to clasp its hand more closely.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43822]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes.

If the universe is so bad, or even half so bad, how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of a wise and good Creator? Men are fools, perhaps; but hardly so foolish as that. The direct inference from black to white, from evil flower to virtuous root, from senseless work to a workman infinitely wise, staggers belief. The spectacle of the universe as revealed by experience can never have been the ground of religion: it must have always been something in spite of which religion, acquired from a different source, was held.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only in quiet waters do things mirror themselves undistorted.
