There is one Holy God, creator of heaven and earth. He is Lord of all life. To Him we are beholden for our life in all its meaning and its hope. Monotheism for the Christian means that anything else which is put in the place of our loyalty to God is an idol. The worship of national power, or racial prestige, or financial success, or cultural tradition, is a violation of the one truth about life, that all created things come from God. To commit life to the one true God is to refuse to have any other gods at all. Values there are in abundance, interests, plans, programs, loyalties to family and nation. But these are not gods; they do not save us; they are not holy in themselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I, for one, hope that youth will again revolt and again demoralize the dead weight of conformity that now lies ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9727]]></link><description><![CDATA[I, for one, hope that youth will again revolt and again demoralize the dead weight of conformity that now lies upon us]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9727</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We rate ability in men by what they finish, not by what they attempt ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19]]></link><description><![CDATA[We rate ability in men by what they finish, not by what they attempt]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O faithful conscience, delicately pure, how doth a little failing wound thee sore! [It., O dignitosa coscienza e netta,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9797]]></link><description><![CDATA[O faithful conscience, delicately pure, how doth a little failing wound thee sore! [It., O dignitosa coscienza e netta,  Come t' e picciol fallo amaro morso.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always tell people that I became a writer not because I went to school but because my mother took ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25235]]></link><description><![CDATA[I always tell people that I became a writer not because I went to school but because my mother took me to the library.

Tell Him your troubles, that He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes, that He may help you conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations, that He may shield you from them: show Him the wounds of your heart, that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how pride disguises you to yourself and others.  If you thus pour out all your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say. You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed. People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of the abundance of the heart, without consideration they say just what they think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved intercourse with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All epoch-making revolutionary events have been produced not by the written, but by the spoken word ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14274]]></link><description><![CDATA[All epoch-making revolutionary events have been produced not by the written, but by the spoken word]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14274</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The resistance of a woman to a man’s advances is not always a sign of virtue.
