I care not if I never raise my voice again for Him, if only I may love Him, please Him. Mayhap in mercy He shall give me a host of children that I may lead them through the vast star fields to explore His delicacies whose finger ends set them to burning.

We do not solve them: we get over them. Old questions are solved by disappearing, evaporating, while new questions corresponding to the changed attitude of endeavor and preference take their place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53776]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek; bound together all our home enjoyments, affections, and hopes; grouped everything and everyone round the Christ]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11403]]></link><description><![CDATA[Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11403</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26845]]></link><description><![CDATA[The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61733]]></link><description><![CDATA[The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I got me girlfriend Hazel Jean, and I just like where I come from.

Fully persuaded that the Bible was an imposture, they were determined to expose [it]. Mr. West chose the Resurrection of Christ, and Lord Lyttleton the conversion of St Paul, for the subject of hostile criticism. Both sat down to their respective tasks full of prejudice and a contempt for Christianity. The results of their separate endeavours was that they were both converted by their attempts to overthrow the truth of Christianity! They came together, not as they had expected, to exult over an imposture exposed to ridicule, but to lament their folly and congratulate each other on their joint conviction, that the Bible was the word of God. Their able enquiries have furnished two most valuable treatises in favour of revelation -- one, entitled "Observations on the Conversion of St Paul", and the other, "Observations on the Resurrection of Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wind and the waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/102]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wind and the waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He without fear is king of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44206]]></link><description><![CDATA[He without fear is king of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think, in general, most people go to the pump and they see what the price is.
