This losing of things is the mercy of God: it comes to teach us to let them go. Or have I forgotten a thought that came to me, which seemed of the truth? I keep trying and trying to call it back, feeling a poor man until that thought be recovered -- to be far more lost, perhaps, in a notebook into which I shall never look again to find it! I forget that it is live things that God cares about.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You start to put them all together and ... add up what we already are spending, you're going to find ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30391]]></link><description><![CDATA[You start to put them all together and ... add up what we already are spending, you're going to find it's fairly significant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you can become you are already. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21928]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you can become you are already.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Periods of wholesome laziness, after days of energetic effort, will wonderfully tone up the mind and body. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24385]]></link><description><![CDATA[Periods of wholesome laziness, after days of energetic effort, will wonderfully tone up the mind and body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the one hundred and tenth anniversary of the birthday of Washington.
