He that refuses to do the less is not like to do the greater. It is very improbable that a man will die for his religion, when he cannot be persuaded to live according to it. He that cannot take up a resolution to live a saint, hath a demonstration within himself that he is never like to die a martyr.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that is angry at a feast is rude. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49362]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that is angry at a feast is rude.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Among all nations there should be vast temples raised where people might worship in silence and listen to it, for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43739]]></link><description><![CDATA[Among all nations there should be vast temples raised where people might worship in silence and listen to it, for it is the voice of God]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43739</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I play in the low 80's.

We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be for ever with Him. When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive. It is so with Christ. In this world our contact with Him is shadowy, for we can only see through a glass darkly. It is spasmodic, for we are poor creatures and cannot live always on the heights. But the best definition of it is to say that heaven is that state where we will always be with Jesus, and where nothing will separate us from Him any more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who gives himself airs of importance, exhibits the credentials of impotence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50545]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who gives himself airs of importance, exhibits the credentials of impotence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trifles make perfection--and perfection is no trifle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59705]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trifles make perfection--and perfection is no trifle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To love someone deeply gives you strength.
