"In all their afflictions, He was afflicted." The relation of God to the woes of the world is not that of a mere spectator. The New Testament goes further, and says that God is love. But that is not love which, in the presence of acute suffering, can stand outside and aloof. The doctrine that Christ is the image of the unseen God means that God does not stand outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43940]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art thou a friend to Roderick? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3207]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art thou a friend to Roderick?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Should envious tongues some malice frame; to soil and tarnish your good name; Live it Down! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53907]]></link><description><![CDATA[Should envious tongues some malice frame; to soil and tarnish your good name; Live it Down!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The overall strategy over the next five years is to gain control of the border. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37281]]></link><description><![CDATA[The overall strategy over the next five years is to gain control of the border.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The United States was foundedby the violent overthrowof a violently founded throne. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24287]]></link><description><![CDATA[The United States was foundedby the violent overthrowof a violently founded throne.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real questions are the ones that obtrude upon your consciousness whether you like it or not, the ones that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12245]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real questions are the ones that obtrude upon your consciousness whether you like it or not, the ones that make your mind start vibrating like a jackhammer, the ones that you "come to terms with" only to discover that they are still there. The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into your life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're bored with life -- you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things -- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17637]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're bored with life -- you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things -- you don't have enough goals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65911]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43487]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To each foot its own shoe. [Fr., A chaque pied son soulier.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56219]]></link><description><![CDATA[To each foot its own shoe. [Fr., A chaque pied son soulier.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is all the difference in the world between treating people equally and attempting to make them equal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47396]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is all the difference in the world between treating people equally and attempting to make them equal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball, the rules and realities of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3749]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball, the rules and realities of the game.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3749</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As lousy as things are now, tomorrow they will be somebody's good old days. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19431]]></link><description><![CDATA[As lousy as things are now, tomorrow they will be somebody's good old days.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At this moment in time, the chances of any agreement are extremely small. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28948]]></link><description><![CDATA[At this moment in time, the chances of any agreement are extremely small.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28948</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, to begin with, you can pray.

Pray!, you say scornfully, pray! I knew it would all fizzle out, and come to nothing. I could pray! Yes, you could pray, and, whatever you may think about it -- using it as a poor makeshift of a thing much lower than a second-best, not really a best at all, on which men fall back only when they can do nothing effectively, and are too fidgety to be able to do nothing at all -- Christ holds that prayer is a tremendous power which achieves what, without it, was a sheer impossibility. And this amazing thing you can set into operation. And the fact that you are not so using it, and simply don't believe in it and its efficiency and efficacy as our fathers did, and that so many nowadays agree with you, is certainly a major reason why the churches are so cold, and the promises seem so tardy of fulfillment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good intention but fixed and resolute - bent on high and holy ends, we shall find means to them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44825]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good intention but fixed and resolute - bent on high and holy ends, we shall find means to them on every side and at every moment; and even obstacles and opposition will but make us "like the fabled specter-ships," which sail the fastest in the very teeth of the wind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44825</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be happy.
