But the Devil has. The Devil knows that as long as he can control human pride it does not matter how many prayer meetings, how many services, how much devotion goes on -- he can still wrack any group of Christians, sooner or later, and frustrate God's purpose for them, and for the world.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn August 11, 1999 Feast of Clare of Assisi, Founder of the Order of Minoresses (Poor Clares), 1253 Commemoration of John Henry Newman, Priest, Teacher, Tractarian, 1890   Never... think we have a due knowledge of ourselves till we have been exposed to various kinds of temptations, and tried on every side. Integrity on one side of our character is no voucher for integrity on another. We cannot tell how we should act if brought under temptations different from those we have hitherto experienced. This thought should keep us humble. We are sinners, but we do not know how great. He alone knows who died for our sins.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You go in there and prepare and play the best you can and play hard, and it'd be big for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41877]]></link><description><![CDATA[You go in there and prepare and play the best you can and play hard, and it'd be big for the school, our fans, our families, the community, to go in and beat a No. 1 team.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25680]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third into ice, and sets a fourth in a flame: it wounds one, another it kills: like lightning it begins and ends in the same moment: it makes that fort yield at night which it besieged but in the morning; for there is no force able to resist it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But, O thou tyrant, Do not repent these things, for they are heavier  Than all thy woes can stir. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12018]]></link><description><![CDATA[But, O thou tyrant, Do not repent these things, for they are heavier  Than all thy woes can stir.
