And the chief of them is this: "Do not lie to God." And that curt piece of advice, so bluntly thrown down for us, is indeed all-important. Do not burn false fire upon God's altar; do not pose and pretend, either to Him or to yourself, in your religious exercises; do not say more than you mean, or use exagerated language that goes beyond the facts, when speaking to Him whose word is truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to be envied than pitied. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14012]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to be envied than pitied.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are some things from a strategic standpoint that we don't want to share, at least not at this point. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35905]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are some things from a strategic standpoint that we don't want to share, at least not at this point.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even though I never did an evil deed, yet, if I have the will to do evil, I have the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even though I never did an evil deed, yet, if I have the will to do evil, I have the sin as if I had done the deed; and I could, by a total will, do as great a sin as if I had killed the whole world, though I never actually did anything. Why, would the same not be possible to a good will? Yes, indeed, and even much more so. Surely, I can do all things with the will. I can bear the sorrow of all men and feed all the poor and do the work of all men and whatever else you may think of. If it be not the will that fails you, but only the power, then truly, before God, you have done it all, and no man can take it from you or even hinder you for a moment; for to will to do as soon as I can is the same before God as having done it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The main goal is to find out what's going on out there in rural Iowa. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39920]]></link><description><![CDATA[The main goal is to find out what's going on out there in rural Iowa.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. -John Plomp. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45510]]></link><description><![CDATA[You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. -John Plomp.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63577]]></link><description><![CDATA[A church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not waste bricks.
