A grievance is most poignant when almost redressed. De Tocqueville in his researches into the state of society in France before the revolution was struck by the discovery that "in no one of the periods which have followed the Revolution of 1789 has the national prosperity of France augmented more rapidly than it did in the twenty years preceding that event." He is forced to conclude that "the French found their position the more intolerable the better it became.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his reason is weak. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3078]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his reason is weak.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise out of season, or tactlessly bestowed, can freeze the heart as much as blame. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise out of season, or tactlessly bestowed, can freeze the heart as much as blame.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Clement, Bishop of Rome, Martyr, c.100 Thanksgiving (U.S.)   Eternal life is not an unending continuance of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6300]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Clement, Bishop of Rome, Martyr, c.100 Thanksgiving (U.S.)   Eternal life is not an unending continuance of this life--that would, perhaps, be Hell--but Eternal Life is quite a different life, divine, not mundane; perfect, not earthly; true life, not corrupt half-life. We cannot form a conception of Eternal Life. What we imagine is ever simply of the earth, temporal, worldly. Nor could we know anything about our eternal life if it had not appeared in Jesus Christ. In him we realize that we were created for the eternal life. If we ask, what is this eternal life? what sense is there in thinking about it if we can have no conception of it?, the answer is, "It is life with God, in God, from God; life in perfect fellowship." Therefore it is a life in love, it is love itself. It is a life without the nature of death and sin, hence without sorrow, pain, anxiety, care, misery. To know this suffices to make one rejoice in eternal life. If there were no eternal life, this life of time would be without meaning, goal, or purpose, without significance, without seriousness and without joy. It would be nothing. That our life does not end in nothing, but that eternal life awaits us, is the glad message of Jesus Christ. He came to give us this promise as a light in this dark world. A Christian is a man who has become certain of eternal life through Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the French were really intelligent, they'd speak English. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47297]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the French were really intelligent, they'd speak English.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66134]]></link><description><![CDATA[God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is understanding that gives us an ability to have peace.
