O God, to use all the circumstances of my life to-day that they may bring forth in me the fruits of holiness rather than the fruits of sin.   Let me use disappointment as material for patience:   Let me use success as material for thankfulness:   Let me use suspence as material for perseverance:   Let me use danger as material for courage:   Let me use reproach as material for longsuffering:   Let me use praise as material for humility:   Let me use pleasures as material for temperance:   Let me use pains as material for endurance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How are the mighty fallen in the midst of battle!

That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like "Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice."  Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Envy, my son, wears herself away, and droops like a lamb under the influence of the evil eye. [Lat., L'invidia, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14026]]></link><description><![CDATA[Envy, my son, wears herself away, and droops like a lamb under the influence of the evil eye. [Lat., L'invidia, figliuol mio, se stessa macera,  E si dilegua come agnel per fascino.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Up and down!

Its core was the conviction that, in thus extending the range of western liberal culture and developing its assumptions, they were in effect establishing on earth that which would grow into the kingdom of God. Some put it sharply but un-Biblically: "building the kingdom"; others, of a more secular turn of mind, echoed J. A. Symonds' hymn, "These Things Shall Be". That whole view exists today only as debris, for it has foundered on the rocks, not so much of human sin, as of the contradictions and complexities of the very western culture that was the substance of its belief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we have begun to take charge of our lives, to own ourselves, there is no longer any need to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/994]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we have begun to take charge of our lives, to own ourselves, there is no longer any need to ask permission of someone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/994</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not expect good from another's death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48803]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not expect good from another's death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who asks with timidity invites a refusal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51153]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who asks with timidity invites a refusal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bush was desperate to keep the Times from running this important story - which the paper had already inexplicably held ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39021]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bush was desperate to keep the Times from running this important story - which the paper had already inexplicably held for a year - because he knew that it would reveal him as a law-breaker. He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention. It did not scrap the Constitution and allow the president to do whatever he pleased in any area in the name of fighting terrorism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is almost the only place in life where a sacrifice is really appreciated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3751]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baseball is almost the only place in life where a sacrifice is really appreciated.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't say you don't have enough time.
