The seven works of spiritual mercy be these: teach men the truth, counsel men to hold with Christ's law, chastise sinners by moderate reproving in charity, comfort sorrowful men by Christ's passion, forgive wrongs, suffer meekly reproofs for the right of God's law, pray heartily for friend and for foe.   ... Middle English Sermons  September 6, 2001 Commemoration of Allen Gardiner, founder of the South American Missionary Society, 1851 Commemoration of Albert Schweitzer, Teacher, Physician, Missionary, 1965   Of the access for us, at any rate, to the spirit of life -- us who were born in Christendom, and are in touch, conscious or unconscious, with Christianity -- this is the true account. Questions over which the churches spend so much labour and time -- questions about the Trinity, about the godhead of Christ, about the procession of the Holy Ghost -- are not vital; what is vital is the doctrine of access to the spirit of life through Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are never scared, embarrassed or hurt, it means you never takechances. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21978]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are never scared, embarrassed or hurt, it means you never takechances.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mentality of an army on the march is merely so much delayed adolescence; it remains persistently, incorrigibly and notoriously ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52048]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mentality of an army on the march is merely so much delayed adolescence; it remains persistently, incorrigibly and notoriously infantile.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54282]]></link><description><![CDATA[We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you have spoken the word, it reigns over you.

Christians are to be the makers of Christ's peace. Something we can all do is to reconcile individuals, families, classes, churches, nations. The question is, Are we, as churchmen and citizens, by work and by prayer, in our private conduct and our public action, doing our utmost with deliberate, unsparing effort! If so, our benediction is of the highest: it is to be, and to be acknowledged as being, sons of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17995]]></link><description><![CDATA[The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their governments.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The key to change... is to let go of fear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5478]]></link><description><![CDATA[The key to change... is to let go of fear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It a wretched thing to suffer at the hand of one of whom we cannot complain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51617]]></link><description><![CDATA[It a wretched thing to suffer at the hand of one of whom we cannot complain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My interest is in the future because I am going to spend the rest of my life there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17116]]></link><description><![CDATA[My interest is in the future because I am going to spend the rest of my life there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For 'tis a truth well known to most, That whatsoever thing is lost,  We seek it, ere it comes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25572]]></link><description><![CDATA[For 'tis a truth well known to most, That whatsoever thing is lost,  We seek it, ere it comes to light,   In every cranny but the right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was no fire.

But Man having induced death upon himself, God hath taken Man's Creature, death, into his hand, and mended it, and whereas it hath in itself a fearfull form and aspect, so that Man is afraid of his own Creature, God presents it to him, in a familiar, in an assiduous, in an agreeable and acceptable form, in sleep, that so when he awakes from sleep and says to himself, shall I be no otherwise when I am dead, than I was even now, when I was asleep, he may be ashamed of his waking dreams, and of his Melancholique fancying out a horrid and an affrightful figure of that death which is so like sleep. As then we need sleep to live out our threescore and ten years, so we need death, to live that life which we cannot out-live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has surrendered himself to it knows that the Way ends on the Cross -- even when it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8282]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has surrendered himself to it knows that the Way ends on the Cross -- even when it is leading him through the jubilation of Gennesaret or the triumphal entry into Jerusalem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt - it is sure to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43911]]></link><description><![CDATA[What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt - it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn't want to go anywhere else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And it will fall out as in a complication of diseases, that by applying a remedy to one sore, you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27686]]></link><description><![CDATA[And it will fall out as in a complication of diseases, that by applying a remedy to one sore, you will provoke another; and that which removes the one ill symptom produces others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From thee all human actions take their springs, The rise of empires, and the fall of kings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17687]]></link><description><![CDATA[From thee all human actions take their springs, The rise of empires, and the fall of kings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I need milk' and 'I need to decide whether to buy this company' both tie up space in psychic RAM. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33026]]></link><description><![CDATA[I need milk' and 'I need to decide whether to buy this company' both tie up space in psychic RAM.
