It is here amongst the people, that the Church must worship and live its life. If it is faithful both to God and to its Gospel, it will be used to hold forth the Word of light to the conversion of those that see and hear. But if its light is hid, then wherewith shall the neighborhood be lighted?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[IBM believes a common standards-based approach, like the XMCL Initiative, is an important step forward for content owners, retailers, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33655]]></link><description><![CDATA[IBM believes a common standards-based approach, like the XMCL Initiative, is an important step forward for content owners, retailers, and distributors, and ultimately for consumers.

It was "sin brought death into the world and all our woe"; as the sin vanishes the woe will vanish too. God Himself is the ever-blessed God. He dwells in the light of joy as well as of purity, and instead of becoming more like Him as we become more miserable, and as all the brightness and glory of life are extinguished, we become more like God as our blessedness becomes more complete. The great Christian graces are radiant with happiness. Faith, hope, charity, there is no sadness in them; and if penitence makes the heart sad, penitence belongs to the sinner, not to the saint.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The circumstances of others seem good to us, while ours seem good to others. [Lat., Aliena nobis, nostra plus aliis ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8725]]></link><description><![CDATA[The circumstances of others seem good to us, while ours seem good to others. [Lat., Aliena nobis, nostra plus aliis placent.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thank you for sending me a copy of your book - I'll waste no time reading it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thank you for sending me a copy of your book - I'll waste no time reading it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are confident of advancing, but in this period of the season the physical condition is fading and surprise results ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30999]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are confident of advancing, but in this period of the season the physical condition is fading and surprise results can't be excluded.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can draw lessons from the past, but we cannot live in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63313]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can draw lessons from the past, but we cannot live in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He rams his quill with scandal and with scoff, But 'tis so very foul, it won't go off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54752]]></link><description><![CDATA[He rams his quill with scandal and with scoff, But 'tis so very foul, it won't go off.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Suretyship is the precursor of ruin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51766]]></link><description><![CDATA[Suretyship is the precursor of ruin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I expect him to be straightforward.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who sings the praises of his boyhood's days. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50251]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who sings the praises of his boyhood's days.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[nobody can disarm the resistance movements without a political resolution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28614]]></link><description><![CDATA[nobody can disarm the resistance movements without a political resolution.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gods Grow angry with your patience.
