The profession of a clergyman is a holy profession, because it is a ministration in holy things, an attendance at the alter. But worldly business is to be made holy unto the Lord, by being done as a service unto Him, and in conformity to His Divine will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He really takes pride in that.

And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we cannot reach an agreement, God forbid, the constitution will be put to the Iraqi people on October 15. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36218]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we cannot reach an agreement, God forbid, the constitution will be put to the Iraqi people on October 15.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3894]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3894</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever a theory appears to you as the only possible one, take this as a sign that you have neither ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59103]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever a theory appears to you as the only possible one, take this as a sign that you have neither understood the theory nor the problem which it was intended to solve]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining, May my lot no less fortunate be  Than a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59445]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining, May my lot no less fortunate be  Than a snug elbow-chair can afford for reclining,   And a cot that o'erlooks the wide sea;    With an ambling pad-pony to pace o'er the lawn,     While I carol away idle sorrow,      And blithe as the lark that each day hails the dawn,       Look forward with hope for to-morrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And for our country 'tis a bliss to die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45787]]></link><description><![CDATA[And for our country 'tis a bliss to die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A room without books is a body without soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28140]]></link><description><![CDATA[A room without books is a body without soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For me, when I came to training camp, I turned the page.

That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then - to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn." Ropo Oguntimehin Education is a companion which no future can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate it and no nepotism can enslave. -T.H.

It was slow in operation, being little aided by invention or imagination, but sure in conclusion.... Perhaps the strongest feature in his character was prudence, never acting until every circumstance, every consideration, was maturely weighed; refraining if he saw doubt, but, when once decided, going through his purpose, whatever obstacles opposed. His integrity was the most pure, his justice the most inflexible I have ever known.... He was, indeed, in every sense of the words, a wise, a good and a great man ... On the whole, his character was, in its mass, perfect ... it may truly be said, that never did nature and fortune combine more perfectly to make a man great....]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Till the rose's lips grow pale With her sighs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54439]]></link><description><![CDATA[Till the rose's lips grow pale With her sighs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ultimate of being successful is the luxury of giving yourself the time to do what you want to do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26071]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ultimate of being successful is the luxury of giving yourself the time to do what you want to do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't have a political bone in my body. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37951]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't have a political bone in my body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43831]]></link><description><![CDATA[See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can't be done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3436]]></link><description><![CDATA[Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can't be done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a consolation to the wretched to have companions in misery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9126]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a consolation to the wretched to have companions in misery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our biggest accomplishment has been to consistently hit timeline commitments. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our biggest accomplishment has been to consistently hit timeline commitments.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Atoms for peace.
