That his view of prayer was nothing else but a sense of the Presence of God, his soul being at that time insensible to everything but Divine Love; and that when the appointed times of prayer were past, he found no difference, because he still continued with God, praising and blessing Him with all his might, so that he passed his life in continual joy; yet hoped that God would give him somewhat to suffer when he should have grown stronger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But Hercules himself must yield to odds; And many strokes, though with a little axe,  Hews down and fells ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46167]]></link><description><![CDATA[But Hercules himself must yield to odds; And many strokes, though with a little axe,  Hews down and fells the hardest-timbered oak.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46167</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The market is euphoric.

And now I mean affection. Now I mean to be fond of (as one is fond of oneself) --to hope, to be disappointed, to live inside the other heart. When I look back on the pain of sex, the love like a wild fox so ready to bite, the antagonism that sits like a twin beside love, and contrast it with affection, so deeply unrepeatable, of two people who have lived a life together (and of whom one must die) it's the affection I find richer. It's that I would have again. Not all those doubtful rainbow colors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19641]]></link><description><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or eaten within twenty four hours.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Were the radical democratic impulses of the American Revolution still driving US politics, it would be difficult to imagine corporatization ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Were the radical democratic impulses of the American Revolution still driving US politics, it would be difficult to imagine corporatization of the kind witnessed today.

In fact, however, faith in Jesus Christ crucified and risen did not first appear at some later stage in the tradition, but was the foundation of the tradition, the very soil out of which it grew; and it is in light of that faith alone that the tradition can be understood. This faith in Jesus Christ, the Crucified and Exalted One, explains both the things which the primitive tradition makes known to us, with its manifest concern for the factual truth of the tradition about Jesus, and at the same time the peculiar liberty which the evangelists take in making alterations in the record in points of detail. In relating the acts and words of Jesus, they do not refer back to any sort of "archives" possessed by the community... Jesus Christ is not for them a figure of past history whose proper place is in a library.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
