This perhaps may seem to some a great oversight and omission. But our Lord in great wisdom thought fit to give us a pattern of a quite different sort of life, which was, not to fly the conversation of men and to live in a monastery or a wilderness, but to do good among men, to live in the world with great freedom and with great innocence. He did indeed sometimes retire himself for the more free and private exercise of devotion, as we ought to do; but he passed his life chiefly in the conversation of men, that they might have all the benefit that was possible of his instruction and example We read that "he was carried into the wilderness to be tempted," but not that he lived there to avoid temptation. He hath given us an example of denying the world without leaving it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Alban, first Martyr of Britain, c.209  Jesus... did not finish all the urgent tasks in Palestine or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8124]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Alban, first Martyr of Britain, c.209  Jesus... did not finish all the urgent tasks in Palestine or all the things He would have liked to do, but He did finish the work which God gave Him to do. The only alternative to frustration is to be sure that we are doing what God wants. Nothing substitutes for knowing that this day, this hour, in this place, we are doing the will of the Father. Then and only then can we think of all the other unfinished tasks with equanimity, and leave them with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And lucent syrops, tinct with cinnamon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13218]]></link><description><![CDATA[And lucent syrops, tinct with cinnamon.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would be willing to bet that if one day a woman walked barefoot to the moon and back and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3430]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would be willing to bet that if one day a woman walked barefoot to the moon and back and a man cleaned out his desk, when the two of them sat down to dinner that night he would say, ‘Boy was that desk a mess.’]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased,  The which observed, a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48463]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased,  The which observed, a man may prophesy,   With a near aim, of the main chance of things    As yet not come to life, which in their seeds     And weak beginnings lie intreasured.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48463</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Books are the legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind, which are delivered down from generation to generation, as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4525]]></link><description><![CDATA[Books are the legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind, which are delivered down from generation to generation, as presents to the posterity of those who are yet unborn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A single prop that does not look real to an audience can louse you up.
