It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Force rules the world, and not opinion; but opinion is that which makes use of force. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16446]]></link><description><![CDATA[Force rules the world, and not opinion; but opinion is that which makes use of force.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all easily taught to imitate what is base and depraved. [Lat., Dociles imitandis  Turpibus ac pravis omnes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20571]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are all easily taught to imitate what is base and depraved. [Lat., Dociles imitandis  Turpibus ac pravis omnes sumus.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We all agree that your theory is crazy, but is it crazy enough? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59095]]></link><description><![CDATA[We all agree that your theory is crazy, but is it crazy enough?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who gives love, receives love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46895]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who gives love, receives love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice is truth in action. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice is truth in action.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing fails like success. •Gerald Nachman  We must believe in luck.

For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like? •Jean Cocteau  Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world. •Lily Tomlin  The penalty for success is to be bored by the people who used to snub you. •Nancy Astor  For you to be successful, sacrifices must be made. It's better that they are made by others but failing that, you'll have to make them yourself. •Rita Mae Brown  Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. •Mark Twain  The way to learn to do things is to do things. The way to learn a trade is to work at it. Success teaches how to succeed. Begin with the determination to succeed, and the work is half done already. •J.N. Fadenburg   Make a success of living by seeing the goal and aiming for it unswervingly. •Cecil B. Demille  I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. •Abraham Lincoln  The secret of success is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake those, you've got it made. •Groucho Marx  Americans are the only people in the world known to me whose status anxiety prompts them to advertise their college and university affiliations in the rear window of their automobiles.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Melancholy is the pleasure of being sad ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26828]]></link><description><![CDATA[Melancholy is the pleasure of being sad]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60949]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is mold in the classroom.
