How tangled are our straightest ways; How dimly flares our brightest star; How earthbound is our highest praise To Thee, who sees us as we are. Our feet are slow where Thine are fast; Thy kiss of grace meets lips of stone; And we admit Thy love at last To hearts that have none of their own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have made this letter longer than usual, because I lack the time to make it short. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4889]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have made this letter longer than usual, because I lack the time to make it short.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Citizenship consists in the service of the country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Citizenship consists in the service of the country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the horse that draws the cart, but the oats. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65585]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the horse that draws the cart, but the oats.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul  The God of Pharisaism was like the God of the Deists, He stood ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7134]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul  The God of Pharisaism was like the God of the Deists, He stood aloof from the world He had made, and let law take its course. He did not here and now deal with sinful men. Paul lets us see how new and wonderful was the experience when God "flashed on his heart" in personal dealing with him. He had not suspected that God was like that. His theological studies had told him that God was loving and merciful; but he had thought this love and mercy were expressed once and for all in the arrangements He had made for Israel's blessedness... It was a new thing to be assured by an inward experience admitting of no further question that God loved him, and that the eternal mercy was a Father's free forgiveness of His erring child. This was the experience that Christ had brought him: he had seen the splendour of God's own love in the face of "the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."

He's an all round rider and it's great to see him prove it with a nice result such as this. It takes a lot to achieve a podium spot in the Vuelta, and I think he's been one of the prominent riders in this race - just as we as a team have been up front in nearly all stages. We took a brilliant stage victory, and with a little luck we could've taken a couple more. On the whole I'm very satisfied with the efforts delivered by everyone. Our aim was to get a good result overall and try for a stage win along the way, and we've achieved both. The team has worked perfectly and everyone down here in and around the team deserve big credit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though the power be wanting, the will deserves praise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50790]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though the power be wanting, the will deserves praise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54821]]></link><description><![CDATA[Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4186]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion.
