What is the reason that so many in our days set their hands to the plough, and looked back again? -- begin to serve Providence in great things, but cannot finish? -- give over in the heat of the day? They never had any such revelation of the mind of God upon their spirits, such a discovery of His excellence, as might serve for a bottom of such undertakings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are always doing, says he, something for Posterity, but I would fain see Posterity do something for us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47851]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are always doing, says he, something for Posterity, but I would fain see Posterity do something for us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems that when we are oppressed by the knowledge of our worthlessness we do not see ourselves as lower ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52319]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems that when we are oppressed by the knowledge of our worthlessness we do not see ourselves as lower than some and higher than others, but as lower than the lowest of mankind.

Perhaps someone will interpose here that such moderation is so uniformly absent from any lawsuit that it would be a miracle if any such were found. Indeed, I admit that, as the customs of these times go, an example of an upright litigant is rare; but the thing itself, when not corrupted by the addition of anything evil, does not cease to be good and pure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is danger from all men.

But it's tough to work with, especially when you get the curly koa. Because of the complexity of the grain, it's a very challenging wood. Mango is a fabulous wood and it's underrated. For some reason, it doesn't carry the influence that koa does. Mango is some beautiful wood.
