We shrink from the consequences of truth. We look round and cling dependently. We ask what men will think; what others will say; whether they will not stare in astonishment. Perhaps they will; but he who is calculating that, will accomplish nothing in this life. The Father -- the Father which is with us and in us -- what does He think? God's work cannot be done without a spirit of independence. A man is got some way in the Christian life when he has learned to say, humbly yet majestically, "I dare to be alone.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have known him [Micawber] come home to supper with a flood of tears, and a declaration that nothing was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14623]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have known him [Micawber] come home to supper with a flood of tears, and a declaration that nothing was now left but a jail; and go to bed making a calculation of the expense of putting bow-windows to the house, "in case anything turned up," which was his favorite expression.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[UA has suffered recurring losses from operations and may not generate sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29663]]></link><description><![CDATA[UA has suffered recurring losses from operations and may not generate sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they become due,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you make an efficient choice in moments of indecision, you establish more effectiveness within a given time span, saving ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59340]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you make an efficient choice in moments of indecision, you establish more effectiveness within a given time span, saving energy and stress.

He should make this purpose the centralizing point ofhis thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be aworldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whicheverit is, he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object whichhe has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, andshould devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts towander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. This is theroyal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if hefails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily mustuntil weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be themeasure of his true success, and this will form a new starting point forfuture power and triumph.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22745</guid></item></channel></rss>
