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[Q:'You don't spoil your grandchildren do you?A:'Not this morning, I haven't seen them yet.' ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Q:'You don't spoil your grandchildren do you?A:'Not this morning, I haven't seen them yet.']]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever cannibals are on the brink of starvation, Heaven, in its infinite mercy, sends them a nice plump missionary ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19073]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever cannibals are on the brink of starvation, Heaven, in its infinite mercy, sends them a nice plump missionary]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lo, here the gentle lark, weary of rest, From his moist cabinet mounts up on high  And wakes the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24108]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lo, here the gentle lark, weary of rest, From his moist cabinet mounts up on high  And wakes the morning, from whose silver breast   The sun ariseth in his majesty;    Who doth the world so gloriously behold     That cedar tops and hills seem burnished gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Parents forgive their children least readily for the faults they themselves instilled in them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63895]]></link><description><![CDATA[Parents forgive their children least readily for the faults they themselves instilled in them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not anxiously hope for that which is not yet come; do not vainlyregret what is already past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21410]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not anxiously hope for that which is not yet come; do not vainlyregret what is already past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more corrupt the State the more numerous the laws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47524]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more corrupt the State the more numerous the laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The women also ... are given a quiz asking them what's their primary form of contraception and their second form ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37751]]></link><description><![CDATA[The women also ... are given a quiz asking them what's their primary form of contraception and their second form of contraception, and it has to match up to what the practitioner said.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every day is a little life: and our whole life is but a day repeated, whence it is that old ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6299]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every day is a little life: and our whole life is but a day repeated, whence it is that old Jacob numbers his life by days; and Moses desires to be taught this point of holy arithmetic, to number not his years but his days.

Poor, timorous, faithless souls that we are! How we shall smile at our vain alarms, when the worst has happened! To us here, death is the most terrible word we know. But when we have tasted its reality, it will mean to us birth, deliverance, a new creation of ourselves. It will be what health is to the sick man. It will be what home is to the exile. It will be what the loved one given back is to the bereaved. As we draw near to it, a great solemn gladness should fill our hearts.
