I love riches because they afford me the means of helping the very poor. I keep faith with everybody; I do not render evil to those who wrong me, but I wish them a situation like mine, in which I receive neither good nor evil from men. I try to be just, true, sincere, and faithful to all men; I have a tender heart for those to whom God has more closely united me; and whether I am alone, or seen by people, I do all my actions in the sight of God, who must judge them, and to whom I have consecrated them all. These are my sentiments; and every day of my life, I bless my Redeemer, who has implanted them in me, and who, out of a man full of weakness, of miseries, of lust, of pride, and of ambition, has made a man free from all these evils by the power of His grace, to which all the glory of it is due, as of myself I have only misery and error.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who are brutally honest get more satisfaction out of the brutality than out of the honesty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19683]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who are brutally honest get more satisfaction out of the brutality than out of the honesty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19683</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I grant you, friends, if you should fright the ladies out of their wits, they would have no more discretion ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60925]]></link><description><![CDATA[I grant you, friends, if you should fright the ladies out of their wits, they would have no more discretion but to hang us; but I will aggravate my voice so that I will roar you as gently as any suckling dove; I will roar you an 'twere any nightingale.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Paris a queer little man you may see, A little man all in gray;  Rosy and round as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9933]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Paris a queer little man you may see, A little man all in gray;  Rosy and round as an apple is he,   Content with the present whate'er it may be,    While from care and from cash he is equally free,     And merry both night and day!      "Ma foi!

The man whose prayer is so pure that he never asks God for anything does not know who God is, and does not know who he is himself: for he does not know his own need of God. All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No wise man ever thought that a traitor should be trusted. [Lat., Nemo unquam sapiens proditori credendum putavit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59639]]></link><description><![CDATA[No wise man ever thought that a traitor should be trusted. [Lat., Nemo unquam sapiens proditori credendum putavit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Columbia, Columbia, to glory arise, The queen of the world and the child of the skies!  Thy genius commands ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2404]]></link><description><![CDATA[Columbia, Columbia, to glory arise, The queen of the world and the child of the skies!  Thy genius commands thee; with rapture behold,   While ages on ages thy splendors unfold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35932]]></link><description><![CDATA[Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the treatment for the social disease of poverty, you will have both poverty and child labor to the end of time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For all may have, If they dare to try, a glorious life, or grave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2324]]></link><description><![CDATA[For all may have, If they dare to try, a glorious life, or grave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are cautiously investigating the deaths with murder, murder by contract and other possible charges in mind.
