The time came when the Church had ceased to grow, except externally in wealth, power, and prestige; and these are mere outward adornments, or hampering burdens, very likely. They do not imply growth or creativeness. The time came when dogmatism, tyranny, and ignorance strangled the free intellectual activity of the Church, and worldliness destroyed its moral fruitfulness. Then joy spread her wings and flew away. The Christian graces care nothing for names and labels; where the Spirit of the Lord is, there they abide, but not in great Churches that have forgotten Him. How little of joy there is in the character of the religious bigot or fanatic, or in the prudent ecclesiastical statesman! A show of cheerfulness they may cultivate, as they often do; but it is like the crackling of thorns under a pot: we cannot mistake it for the joy of the Lord which is the strength of the true Christian.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And do as adversaries do in law,— Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends. -The Taming of the Shrew. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55707]]></link><description><![CDATA[And do as adversaries do in law,— Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends. -The Taming of the Shrew.

A Goat, overcome with thirst, came to the same well, and seeing the Fox, inquired if the water was good. Concealing his sad plight under a merry guise, the Fox indulged in a lavish praise of the water, saying it was excellent beyond measure, and encouraging him to descend. The Goat, mindful only of his thirst, thoughtlessly jumped down, but just as he drank, the Fox informed him of the difficulty they were both in and suggested a scheme for their common escape. If, said he, you will place your forefeet upon the wall and bend your head, I will run up your back and escape, and will help you out afterwards. The Goat readily assented and the Fox leaped upon his back. Steadying himself with the Goat's horns, he safely reached the mouth of the well and made off as fast as he could. When the Goat upbraided him for breaking his promise, he turned around and cried out, You foolish old fellow! If you had as many brains in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you would never have gone down before you had inspected the way up, nor have exposed yourself to dangers from which you had no means of escape. Look before you leap.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Policies are judged by their consequences, but crusades are judged by how good they make the crusaders feel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47649]]></link><description><![CDATA[Policies are judged by their consequences, but crusades are judged by how good they make the crusaders feel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think wrongly, if you please, but in all cases think for yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59183]]></link><description><![CDATA[Think wrongly, if you please, but in all cases think for yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The quality of mercy is not strain'd, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath: it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27356]]></link><description><![CDATA[The quality of mercy is not strain'd, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath: it is twice bless'd; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He does it with a better grace, but I do it more natural. -Twelfth Night.

He's an all round rider and it's great to see him prove it with a nice result such as this. It takes a lot to achieve a podium spot in the Vuelta, and I think he's been one of the prominent riders in this race - just as we as a team have been up front in nearly all stages. We took a brilliant stage victory, and with a little luck we could've taken a couple more. On the whole I'm very satisfied with the efforts delivered by everyone. Our aim was to get a good result overall and try for a stage win along the way, and we've achieved both. The team has worked perfectly and everyone down here in and around the team deserve big credit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who, as they sung, would take the prison'd soul And lap it in Elysium. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56462]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who, as they sung, would take the prison'd soul And lap it in Elysium.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sufficiency of merit is to know that my merit is not sufficient. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27391]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sufficiency of merit is to know that my merit is not sufficient.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27391</guid></item></channel></rss>
