This makes them self-sufficient, morose, severe judges of all those that fall short of their mortifications. And thus their self-denials do only that for them which indulgences do for other people: they withstand and hinder the operation of God upon their souls, and instead of being really self-denials, they strengthen and keep up the kingdom of self.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though this may be play to you, 'Tis death to us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50559]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though this may be play to you, 'Tis death to us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have lived to thank God that all my prayers have not been answered. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63963]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have lived to thank God that all my prayers have not been answered.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A proof that experience is of no use, is that the end of one love does not prevent us from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65635]]></link><description><![CDATA[A proof that experience is of no use, is that the end of one love does not prevent us from beginning another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The severe schools shall never laugh me out of the philosophy of Hermes, that this visible world is but a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62204]]></link><description><![CDATA[The severe schools shall never laugh me out of the philosophy of Hermes, that this visible world is but a picture of the invisible, wherein as in a portrait, things are not truly, but in equivocal shapes, and as they counterfeit some real substance in that invisible fabric.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we don't, this is it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40173]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we don't, this is it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The work an unknown good man has done is like a vein of water flowing hidden underground, secretly making the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20854]]></link><description><![CDATA[The work an unknown good man has done is like a vein of water flowing hidden underground, secretly making the ground green.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have good home cooking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40760]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have good home cooking.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul   In his opinion the leaders of the Church had grown so used ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6867]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul   In his opinion the leaders of the Church had grown so used to the spectacle of the world neglecting the wisdom of Christ that they had ceased to be shocked by it and what was wanted was a renewal of the apostolic spirit among cardinals and archbishops and papal nuncios. It was no use preaching the gospel only to those who came to church to hear it. The gospel ought to be preached to those who didn't want to hear it as well: to industrialists in their offices, to clubmen in their windows, to workers in their yards and factories, to bibbers in their taverns, to harlots in their doorways, to all those should the sweet tidings of Christ be taught. It was a sorry matter for reflection that it was only heretics who dared to brave the sneers of the mob by crying aloud the Name of Jesus at street corners and in the market place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fame is vapor, popularity an accident, riches take wings.

We pray, too often, not to do God's will, but to enlist God's assistance in maintaining our "continually increasing consumption".
