So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its flavor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens [reveals] God when a man's mind works that way; things all have this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Foxhunting... the unspeakable pursuing the inedible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/812]]></link><description><![CDATA[Foxhunting... the unspeakable pursuing the inedible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am extremely proud of the way our staff handled the incident but I am upset it happened.

All your insight only leads you to the knowledge that it is not in yourselves that you will discover the true and the good. The philosophers promised them to you, and have not been able to keep their promises... Your principal maladies are pride, which cuts you off from God, and sensuality, which binds you to the earth; and they have done nothing but foster at least one of these maladies. If they have given you God for your object, it has only been to pander to your pride; they have made you think that you were like Him and resembled Him by your nature. And those who have grasped the vanity of such a pretension have cast you down into the other abyss by making you believe that your nature was like that of the beasts of the field, and have led you to seek your good in lust, which is the lot of animals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wise hand doth not all that the foolish mouth speakes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49935]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wise hand doth not all that the foolish mouth speakes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For my voice, I have lost it with halloing and singing of anthems. -King Henry IV.
