Prayer stamps with its indelible mark our actions and demeanor. A tranquillity of bearing, a facial and bodily repose, are observed in those whose inner lives are thus enriched. Within the depths of consciousness a flame kindles. And man sees himself. He discovers his selfishness, his silly pride, his fears, his greeds, his blunders. He develops a sense of moral obligation, intellectual humility. Thus begins a journey of the soul toward the realm of grace... [Continued tomorrow].]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easier to square the circle than to get round a mathematician. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26510]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easier to square the circle than to get round a mathematician.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kindly words do not enter so deeply into men as a reputation for kindness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kindly words do not enter so deeply into men as a reputation for kindness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The censure of those who are opposed to us, is the highest commendation that can be given us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5431]]></link><description><![CDATA[The censure of those who are opposed to us, is the highest commendation that can be given us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trust not too much to appearances. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65041]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trust not too much to appearances.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be matter of fact about the world is to blunder into fantasy -- and dull fantasy at that, as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15308]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be matter of fact about the world is to blunder into fantasy -- and dull fantasy at that, as the real world is strange and wonderful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Luck is the residue of design. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26020]]></link><description><![CDATA[Luck is the residue of design.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A rumor without a leg to stand on will get around some other way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/919]]></link><description><![CDATA[A rumor without a leg to stand on will get around some other way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have not the love of greatness, but the love of the love of greatness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18247]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have not the love of greatness, but the love of the love of greatness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God prepares great men for great tasks by great trials. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47290]]></link><description><![CDATA[God prepares great men for great tasks by great trials.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I knew my vision of the garden of savage beauty had been a true vision.

Look right, look left, I dwell alone; I lift mine eyes, but dimmed with grief No everlasting hills I see; My life is in the falling leaf: O Jesus, quicken me. My life is like a faded leaf, My harvest dwindled to a husk: Truly my life is void and brief And tedious in the barren dusk; My life is like a frozen thing, No bud nor greenness can I see: Yet rise it shall--the sap of spring; O Jesus, rise in me. My life is like a broken bowl, A broken bowl that cannot hold One drop of water for my soul Or cordial in the searching cold; Cast in the fire the perished thing; Melt and remould it, till it be A royal cup for Him, my King: O Jesus, drink of me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellers there is safety. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/770]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellers there is safety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Between truth and the search for it, I choose the second. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2004]]></link><description><![CDATA[Between truth and the search for it, I choose the second.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century  If ye keep watch over your hearts, and listen for the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7212]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century  If ye keep watch over your hearts, and listen for the Voice of God and learn of Him, in one short hour ye can learn more from Him than ye could learn from Man in a thousand years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To marry is to halve your rights and double your duties. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27115]]></link><description><![CDATA[To marry is to halve your rights and double your duties.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12363]]></link><description><![CDATA[We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gentle my lord, sleek o'er your rugged looks; Be bright and jovial among your guests to-night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18433]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gentle my lord, sleek o'er your rugged looks; Be bright and jovial among your guests to-night.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another humanbeing.
