It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When superstition is allowed to perform the task of old age in dulling the human temperament, we can say goodbye ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27944]]></link><description><![CDATA[When superstition is allowed to perform the task of old age in dulling the human temperament, we can say goodbye to all excellence in poetry, in painting, and in music.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am undone!

The Holy Spirit supports our helplessness. Left to ourselves we do not know what prayers to offer or how to offer them. But in those inarticulate groans which rise from the depth of our being, we recognize the voice of none other than the Holy Spirit. He makes intercession; and His intercession is sure to be answered. For God Who searches the inmost recesses of the heart can interpret His own Spirit's meaning. He knows that His own Will regulates Its petitions, and that they are offered for men dedicated to His service.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We twain have met like the ships upon the sea, Who behold an hour's converse, so short, so sweet:  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26818]]></link><description><![CDATA[We twain have met like the ships upon the sea, Who behold an hour's converse, so short, so sweet:  One little hour! and then, away they speed   On lonely paths, through mist, and cloud, and foam,    To meet no more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See what a rent the envious Casca made. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10794]]></link><description><![CDATA[See what a rent the envious Casca made.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm really not worried about it.
