You do get into situations where you think, 'What should I do? Shouldn't I intervene? Shouldn't I do something?' I think if you get to that point you have to make a decision. I've said to people, if you feel it's wrong just being a reporter and you can't do enough, well it's time to become an aid worker and train to be someone who really knows what to do. No good standing around snapping a notebook.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The candidate was required to prepare himself by confession, fasting, and passing the night in prayer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36596]]></link><description><![CDATA[The candidate was required to prepare himself by confession, fasting, and passing the night in prayer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66821]]></link><description><![CDATA[A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've had bad luck with our kids--they've all grown up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5965]]></link><description><![CDATA[We've had bad luck with our kids--they've all grown up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not in a rush to get divorced because of this health coverage issue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32218]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are not in a rush to get divorced because of this health coverage issue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is a state of war, and to live in it we have always to combat with ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is a state of war, and to live in it we have always to combat with ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64515]]></link><description><![CDATA[The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63842]]></link><description><![CDATA[All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Tennessee Titans played in Memphis until their stadium was ready in Nashville.

The foreground of prayer is the intense, immediate desire for a certain blessing which seems to be absolutely necessary for the soul to have; the background of prayer is the quiet, earnest desire that the will of God, whatever it may be, should be done. What a picture is the perfect prayer of Jesus in Gethsemane! In front burns the strong desire to escape death and to live; but behind there stands, calm and strong, the craving of the whole life for the doing of the will of God... Leave out the foreground, let there be no expression of the will of him who prays, and there is left a pure submission which is almost fatalism. Leave out the background, let there be no acceptance of the will of God, and the prayer is only an expression of self-will, a petulant claiming of the uncorrected choice of him who prays. Only when the two are there together, the special desire resting on the universal submission, the universal submission opening into the special desire, is the picture perfect and the prayer complete.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou, in our wonder and astonishment Hast built thyself a life-long monument. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou, in our wonder and astonishment Hast built thyself a life-long monument.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not want faith, I want knowledge.
