Irving teaches me the lesson of cheerfulness, Hawthorne shows me the hatefulness of sin, Longfellow gives me the soft, tranquil music of hope. Lowell makes us feel that we must give ourselves to our fellow men. Whittier sings to me of divine Fatherhood and human brotherhood. These are Christian lessons: who inspired them? Who put it into the heart of Martin Luther to nail those theses on the church door of Wittenberg? Who stirred and fired the soul of Savonarola? Who thrilled and electrified the soul of John Wesley? Jesus Christ is back of these all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't try to go too fast. Learn your job.

Certainly Jeremiah was no integrated personality. It is doubtful if... he ever knew the meaning of the word "peace". We have no evidence that his internal struggle was ever ended, although the passing years no doubt brought an increasing acceptance of destiny. Jeremiah, if his "confessions" are any index, needed a course in pastoral psychiatry in the very worst way... The feeling cannot be escaped that if Jeremiah had been integrated, it would have been at the cost of ceasing to be Jeremiah! A man at peace simply could not be a Jeremiah. Spiritual health is good; mental assurance is good; but the summons of faith is neither to an integrated personality nor to the laying-by of all questions, but to the dedication of personality -- with all its fears and questions -- to its duty and destiny under God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From his brimstone bed, at break of day, A-walking the Devil is gone,  To look at his little snug ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12175]]></link><description><![CDATA[From his brimstone bed, at break of day, A-walking the Devil is gone,  To look at his little snug farm of the world,   And see how his stock went on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You read a book from beginning to end.
