But to be able to live peaceably with hard and perverse persons, or with the disorderly, or with such as go contrary to us, is a great grace, and a most commendable thing.  ...

But let me tell you that herein you put an extremely difficult task upon us, in expecting that we should pour wine and oil into the wound before it be searched, and speak smooth and comfortable things to a man that is but just brought to a sense of the long course of a lewd and wicked life impenitently continued in. Alas! what comfort can we give to men in such a case? We are loth to drive them to despair; and yet we must not destroy them by presumption; pity and good nature do strongly tempt us to make the best of their case and to give them all the little hopes which with any kind of reason we can --and God knows it is but very little that we can give to such persons upon good ground, for it all depends upon the degree and sincerity of their repentance, which God only knows, and we can but guess at.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They have an imposing front line, and we had a tough time matching up against them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39729]]></link><description><![CDATA[They have an imposing front line, and we had a tough time matching up against them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time we try to move a piece of furniture, it just falls apart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every time we try to move a piece of furniture, it just falls apart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Advice is like castor oil, easy enough to give but dreadful uneasy to take. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/856]]></link><description><![CDATA[Advice is like castor oil, easy enough to give but dreadful uneasy to take.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[New Year's Eve, where auld acquaintance be forgot.

One side of Christ's work will appeal most to one mind, another to another. The mistake that is often made by those who speak most about Christian experience is that they are so apt to insist upon everyone else's experience -- on penalty of its utter worthlessness -- being exactly the same as their own. The great thing is that we should be attracted by Christ in some way, that we should come to God in that spirit of penitence which Christ taught was the one condition of acceptance with Him, and with that steady purpose of amendment which is, as he always taught, a part of true penitence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage: A word which should be pronounced "mirage";. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26426]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage: A word which should be pronounced "mirage";.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If noble death be virtue's chiefest part, We above all men are by Fortune blest, Striving with freedom's crown to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44566]]></link><description><![CDATA[If noble death be virtue's chiefest part, We above all men are by Fortune blest, Striving with freedom's crown to honor Greece, we died, and here in endless glory rest]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who among us hasn't envied a cat's ability to ignore the cares of daily life and to relax completely? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14000]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who among us hasn't envied a cat's ability to ignore the cares of daily life and to relax completely?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are examining what alternative documents we could use for people in those border areas to go back and forth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37282]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are examining what alternative documents we could use for people in those border areas to go back and forth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53413]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best way to hold a man is in your arms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1618]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best way to hold a man is in your arms.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gem cannot be polished without friction, not a man perfected without trials. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18414]]></link><description><![CDATA[The gem cannot be polished without friction, not a man perfected without trials.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise person does at once, what a fool does at last.
