It is the recognition of the fact that God has many kinds of work to be done, and that the best paid are not always the most honourable. To enter or exercise the ministry with a view to preferment is like marrying for money and not for love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise a hill, but keepe below. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49713]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise a hill, but keepe below.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prodigal of the property of others, sparing of his own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48865]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prodigal of the property of others, sparing of his own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When in doubt, win the trick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12752]]></link><description><![CDATA[When in doubt, win the trick.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This aircraft signifies many rescues.
