There is something more true in his denunciation of idolatry as sin than in our denial that it is possible for a man to worship an idol, or in our suggestion that all idolatry is only a road to spiritual worship of the one true God... One day, I think, we shall return to these stern doctrines, realizing in them a truth more profound than we now know, and then we shall preach them with conviction, and, being convinced ourselves, we shall convince others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I lost some time once.

Yet there was a case, in which David found an ease, to fall into the hands of God, to scape the hands of men: When God's hand is bent to strike, it is a fearefull thing, to fall into the hands of the living God; but to fall out of the hands of the living God, is a horror beyond our expression, beyond our imagination.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ofttimes the test of courage becomes rather to live than to die. [It., Spesso e da forte,  Piu che ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24828]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ofttimes the test of courage becomes rather to live than to die. [It., Spesso e da forte,  Piu che il morire, il vivere.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning 'lousy hunter' ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning 'lousy hunter']]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is always easier to believe than to deny.

Yet people attempt to evade His statement. Generally speaking, these are the very people who are the quickest in laying the blame upon God for all the sorrow and sin in the world. They argue that He could prevent it. They excuse their own do-nothing attitude by making of evil's apparent predominance a ground for doubt of His loving kindness. It never seems to occur to them to look for the cause in mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think the games we won on the road set a good tone for this club.

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Politics is not a bad profession.
