It is God. We have mistaken the nature of poverty, and thought it was economic poverty. No, it is poverty of soul, deprivation of God's recreating, loving peace. Peer into poverty and see if we are really getting down to the deepest needs, in our economic salvation schemes. These are important. But they lie farther along the road, secondary steps toward world reconstruction. The primary step is a holy life, transformed and radiant in the glory of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am afraid to show you who I really am, because if I show you who I really am, you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57156]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am afraid to show you who I really am, because if I show you who I really am, you might not like it--and that's all I got.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we learn with pleasure we never forget. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26963]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we learn with pleasure we never forget.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Address yourself to entertain them sprightly, And let's be red with mirth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27430]]></link><description><![CDATA[Address yourself to entertain them sprightly, And let's be red with mirth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History does not always repeat itself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64138]]></link><description><![CDATA[History does not always repeat itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Present is the living sum-total of the whole Past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45669]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Present is the living sum-total of the whole Past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History books that contain no lies are extremely dull. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19394]]></link><description><![CDATA[History books that contain no lies are extremely dull.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humour is the weapon of unarmed people: it helps people who are oppressed to smile at the situation that pains ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20136]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humour is the weapon of unarmed people: it helps people who are oppressed to smile at the situation that pains them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith will move mountains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50983]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faith will move mountains.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50983</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12858]]></link><description><![CDATA[And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5785]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that dies pays all debts. -The Tempest.

It is the recognition of the fact that God has many kinds of work to be done, and that the best paid are not always the most honourable.
