It is only when we see things in the light of God that we see what things are really important, and what things are not. These things seem vastly important, things like ambition, and prestige, and money and gain, lose all their value and importance when they are seen in the light of God. Pleasures and habits and social customs which seem permissible enough, are seen for the dangerous things they are when they are seen in the light of God. Things which seem evils, hardship, toil, discipline, unpopularity, even persecution, are seen in their glory when they are seen in the light of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always do your best.

He had never seen the Book before. It taught him another lesson than that of fasts and vigils... Luther learned now that a man was saved not by singing masses, but by the infinite grace of God: a more credible hypothesis. He gradually got himself founded, as on the rock. No wonder he should venerate the Bible, which had brought this blessed help to him. He prized it as the Word of the Highest must be prized by such a man. He determined to hold by that, as through life and to death he firmly did.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We delight in one knowable thing, which comprehends all that is knowable; in one apprehensible, which draws together all that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14523]]></link><description><![CDATA[We delight in one knowable thing, which comprehends all that is knowable; in one apprehensible, which draws together all that can be apprehended; in a single being that includes all, above all in the one which is itself the all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your source material is the people you know, not those you don't know, but every character is an extension of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34301]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your source material is the people you know, not those you don't know, but every character is an extension of the author's own personality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friend is one before whom you may think aloud. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16838]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friend is one before whom you may think aloud.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is at bottom only one genuinely scientific treatment for all diseases, and that is to stimulate the phagocytes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26726]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is at bottom only one genuinely scientific treatment for all diseases, and that is to stimulate the phagocytes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opportunities are there for only a second but you got to see it, just like a shooting star. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45117]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opportunities are there for only a second but you got to see it, just like a shooting star.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps only 7 to 10 percent at most of the cost of producing a wafer is labor.

This is testimony, the apostolic testimony, and this, with the energy of love, is the missionary motive. The insistent task of missionary education and responsibility is to engender this motive throughout the Church, a task that can only be accomplished as men are confronted anew with the message of the Bible and with its supreme and central story, the story of the cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And one by one in turn, some grand mistake Casts off its bright skin yearly like the snake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5510]]></link><description><![CDATA[And one by one in turn, some grand mistake Casts off its bright skin yearly like the snake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Loving is a feeling that brings both joy and pain to my heart.
