When, unarmed and defenseless, He said to the Roman power, "My Kingdom is not of this world," He spoke the word of inauguration. Over the kingdom of the elemental forces, over the kingdom of the animal, over the kingdom of the intellect, He beheld rising, with Himself as prophet and embodiment, that kingdom of the spiritual whose forces should be those of purity and sacrifice, love and trust, obedience and service. It is the last of the kingdoms because it is the highest; it will be the most enduring for there is nothing that can take its place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cheerfulness, sir, is the principle ingredient in the composition of health. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cheerfulness, sir, is the principle ingredient in the composition of health.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14757]]></link><description><![CDATA[After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life.

My career success is due in large part to this new understanding of quantum physics, combined with the love and trust I share with Brian [Lewis].]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65218]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the restraints of conscience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60816]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the restraints of conscience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here's an acre sown indeed, With the richest royalest seed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18201]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here's an acre sown indeed, With the richest royalest seed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that keeps not crust nor crum Weary of all, shall want some. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13263]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that keeps not crust nor crum Weary of all, shall want some.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music was invented to confirm human loneliness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43506]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music was invented to confirm human loneliness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stop shallow water from running, it will rage; tread on a worm and it will turn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10284]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stop shallow water from running, it will rage; tread on a worm and it will turn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the patriotic duty of every man to lie for his country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45833]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the patriotic duty of every man to lie for his country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is good To lengthen to the last a sunny mood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5842]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is good To lengthen to the last a sunny mood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evildoers delight in hiding themselves; shun appearing; are bewildered when discovered; being accused, deny; not even when tortured, readily or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6796]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evildoers delight in hiding themselves; shun appearing; are bewildered when discovered; being accused, deny; not even when tortured, readily or always confess; certainly mourn when condemned; sum up against themselves, impute either to fate or to the stars the impulses of a wicked mind; for they will not have that to be their own, which they acknowledge to be evil. But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow?
