Every act of goodwill permanently and sensibly increases goodwill. Trifling acts of goodwill are often more efficacious in this way than great ones. A flower given in kindness and at the right time profits more, both to giver and receiver, than some vast material benefit in which the goodwill is hidden by the magnitude of the act. Some little, sensible, individual touch from the hand of our Lord may convert the heart more than the contemplation of His death for us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is impossible to industry. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is impossible to industry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The poetry of a people comes from the deep recesses of the unconscious, the irrational and the collective body of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60035]]></link><description><![CDATA[The poetry of a people comes from the deep recesses of the unconscious, the irrational and the collective body of our ancestral memories.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Stag in the Ox-StallA stag, roundly chased by the hounds and blinded by fear to the danger he was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1600]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Stag in the Ox-StallA stag, roundly chased by the hounds and blinded by fear to the danger he was running into, took shelter in a farmyard and hid himself in a shed among the oxen. An Ox gave him this kindly warning: O unhappy creature! why should you thus, of your own accord, incur destruction and trust yourself in the house of your enemy?' The Stag replied: Only allow me, friend, to stay where I am, and I will undertake to find some favorable opportunity of effecting my escape. At the approach of the evening the herdsman came to feed his cattle, but did not see the Stag; and even the farm-bailiff with several laborers passed through the shed and failed to notice him. The Stag, congratulating himself on his safety, began to express his sincere thanks to the Oxen who had kindly helped him in the hour of need. One of them again answered him: We indeed wish you well, but the danger is not over. There is one other yet to pass through the shed, who has as it were a hundred eyes, and until he has come and gone, your life is still in peril. At that moment the master himself entered, and having had to complain that his oxen had not been properly fed, he went up to their racks and cried out: Why is there such a scarcity of fodder? There is not half enough straw for them to lie on. Those lazy fellows have not even swept the cobwebs away. While he thus examined everything in turn, he spied the tips of the antlers of the Stag peeping out of the straw. Then summoning his laborers, he ordered that the Stag should be seized and killed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thank God, ...

Nor will it take comfort in the thought that God is dead, or that mankind has come of age, or even in ecumenical negotiations for writing off Papal Infallibility against the validity of Anglican Orders. The only means of satisfying it remains that bread of life which Jesus offered, with the promise that those who are of it should never hunger again. The promise stands.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58105]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Relationships based on obligation lack dignity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21510]]></link><description><![CDATA[Relationships based on obligation lack dignity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three things are ever silent--Thought, Destiny, and the Grave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56272]]></link><description><![CDATA[Three things are ever silent--Thought, Destiny, and the Grave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The purity men love is like the mists which envelope the earth, and not like the azure ether beyond. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52598]]></link><description><![CDATA[The purity men love is like the mists which envelope the earth, and not like the azure ether beyond.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We came out swinging today and it paid off.
