So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its flavor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens [reveals] God when a man's mind works that way; things all have this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, Let it not be among the jumbled heap  Of murky buildings: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57182]]></link><description><![CDATA[O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, Let it not be among the jumbled heap  Of murky buildings: climb with me the steep,--   Nature's observatory--whence the dell,    In flowery slopes, its river's crystal swell,     May seem a span; let me thy vigils keep      'Mongst boughs pavilion'd, where the deer's swift leap       Startles the wild bee from the foxglove bell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be a human being means to possess a feeling of inferiority which constantly presses towards its own conquest...The greater ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52425]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be a human being means to possess a feeling of inferiority which constantly presses towards its own conquest...The greater the feeling of inferiority that has been experienced, the more powerful is the urge for conquest and the more violent the emotional agitation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17505]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make no judgments where you have no compassion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53369]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make no judgments where you have no compassion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Habit converts luxurious enjoyments into dull and daily necessities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Habit converts luxurious enjoyments into dull and daily necessities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis one thing to be tempted, another thing to fall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58885]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis one thing to be tempted, another thing to fall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most faults are not in our Constitution, but in ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9908]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most faults are not in our Constitution, but in ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of the team. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of the team.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Help thi kynne, Crist bit (biddeth), for ther bygynneth charitie. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46470]]></link><description><![CDATA[Help thi kynne, Crist bit (biddeth), for ther bygynneth charitie.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We noticed that.
