Think for yourself whether much of your sorrow has not arisen from someone speaking slightingly of you. As along as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal, how can you hope to find inward peace?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God gives not kings the stile of Gods in vaine, For on his throne his sceptre do they sway;  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54472]]></link><description><![CDATA[God gives not kings the stile of Gods in vaine, For on his throne his sceptre do they sway;  And as their subjects ought them to obey,   So kings should feare and serve their God againe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two distinct classes of what are called thoughts: those that we produce in ourselves by reflection and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53182]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are two distinct classes of what are called thoughts: those that we produce in ourselves by reflection and the act of thinking, and those that bolt into the mind of their own accord]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Lanfranc, Prior of Le Bec, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1089  The great danger facing all of us... is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7813]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Lanfranc, Prior of Le Bec, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1089  The great danger facing all of us... is not that we shall make an absolute failure of life, nor that we shall fall into outright viciousness, nor that we shall be terribly unhappy, nor that we shall feel [that] life has no meaning at all -- not these things. The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition is like a frog sitting on a Venus Flytrap.

We have no reason to mistrust the New Testament assurance. The Easter message and the historical Jesus are joined by a bridge resting on many piers. Jesus proclaimed the good news of the presence of God who, like a forgiving father, seeks his lost children and grants even sinners the company of the Redeemer; the disciples preached the Gospel of Christ, who appeared as saviour and died on the cross for sinners. In the Holy Spirit Jesus drove out unclean spirits and conquered Satan; from Easter onwards he was extolled as the Lord of all spirits, who gives the Holy Spirit to believers and in him is ever present with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As soon as I accepted my captaincy I knew I wanted Marie-Laure to be my vice captain.
