But he could not read Latin, and so the Scriptures were a closed book to him. However, he hired two money-minded priests, who, in violation of strict regulations, translated the Bible for him into Provençal, the language of southern France. The content of the Word of God made such an impression upon this earnest man that he gave up his business, took upon himself a vow of poverty, and dedicated himself to the simple preaching of the contents of God's Word.  The Latin of the Church only mystified its hearers [but] Waldo's humble preaching edified the souls of men. His words were not spectacular but powerful, as he pleaded with them to repent. Much of his preaching and that of his followers consisted in reciting long passages of Scripture in the vernacular. Many of them could not afford an expensive handwritten copy of the Bible, and the ecclesiastical authorities could too easily rob them of such a book; but they could not erase the words which were treasured in the heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man dies still if he has done nothing, as one who has done much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man dies still if he has done nothing, as one who has done much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/277]]></link><description><![CDATA[The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's gone, and who knows how may he report Thy words by adding fuel to the flame? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17886]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's gone, and who knows how may he report Thy words by adding fuel to the flame?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17886</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Done to death by slanderous tongues Was the Hero that here lies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Done to death by slanderous tongues Was the Hero that here lies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can manage a prose format as long as I keep closer to Laurence Sterne than to Henry James. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33134]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can manage a prose format as long as I keep closer to Laurence Sterne than to Henry James.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There grewe an aged tree on the greene; A goodly Oake sometime had it bene,  With armes full strong ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44720]]></link><description><![CDATA[There grewe an aged tree on the greene; A goodly Oake sometime had it bene,  With armes full strong and largely displayed,   But of their leaves they were disarayde    The bodie bigge, and mightely pight,     Thoroughly rooted, and of wond'rous hight;      Whilome had bene the king of the field,       And mochell mast to the husband did yielde,        And with his nuts larded many swine:         But now the gray mosse marred his rine;          His bared boughes were beaten with stormes,           His toppe was bald, and wasted with wormes,            His honour decayed, his brauches sere.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now the trumpet summons us again -- not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need -- not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now the trumpet summons us again -- not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need -- not as a call to battle, though embattled we are -- but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation" -- a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty and war itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who have some means think that the most important thing in the world is love.
