Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Academe, n.: An ancient school where morality and philosophy were taught.

I think that the Catholic Church ought to have maintained and used ecclesiastical and sacerdotal authority, but that its maintenance and its use ought to have been accompanied with a continual fear. Because they had before them this fact, that however divinely authoritative, however securely resting on a basis of legitimate and genuine inspiration, yet the ecclesiastical authority of the Old Covenant, by no process of sudden revolution, but simply by a process of gradual development, was capable of becoming something so utterly alien in spirit from what it was intended to be, that when the Christ came, to prepare for whom and to welcome whom was the one reason for which it existed, it did in fact reject Him utterly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some persons are likeable in spite of their unswerving integrity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46223]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some persons are likeable in spite of their unswerving integrity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about. -Angela ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13534]]></link><description><![CDATA[While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about. -Angela Schwindt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the president decides something on Monday, he still believes it on Wednesday - no matter what happened Tuesday. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17389]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the president decides something on Monday, he still believes it on Wednesday - no matter what happened Tuesday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is there to come, and nothing past, But an eternal Now does always last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14197]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is there to come, and nothing past, But an eternal Now does always last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14197</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Private victories precede public victories. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Private victories precede public victories.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I live to grow old, as I find I go down, Let this be my fate in a country ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61788]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I live to grow old, as I find I go down, Let this be my fate in a country town;  May I have a warm house, with a stone at my gate,   And a cleanly young girl to rub my bald pate.    May I govern my passions with an absolute sway,     Grow wiser and better as my strength wears away,      Without gout or stone, by a gentle decay.   - Walter Pope, The Old Man's Wish,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61788</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The battle to feed all of humanity is over.
