I ought not to neglect anything or be passionately vehement about anything, for it is dangerous to do the work of the Lord negligently, on the one hand; or, on the other, to appropriate it to ourselves by self-love and false zeal. In this latter case, our actions arise from a principle of self-will: we are eager and anxious for the success, and that under the pretense of seeking the glory of God. O, God, grant me Thy grace to enable me to be faithful in action and resigned in success! My only business is to do Thy will, and to do it as Thy will, not forgetting Thee in the performance of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is man that makes truth great, not truth that makes man great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59893]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is man that makes truth great, not truth that makes man great.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59893</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good name is better than precious ointment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43629]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good name is better than precious ointment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Sundar Singh of India, Sadhu, Evangelist, Teacher, 1929  From time immemorial men have quenched their thirst with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7174]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Sundar Singh of India, Sadhu, Evangelist, Teacher, 1929  From time immemorial men have quenched their thirst with water without knowing anything about its chemical constituents.

But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating, and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a women and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called "falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here the heart May give a useful lesson to the head,  And learning wiser grow without his books. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24536]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here the heart May give a useful lesson to the head,  And learning wiser grow without his books.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the first year for this.
