But Man having induced death upon himself, God hath taken Man's Creature, death, into his hand, and mended it, and whereas it hath in itself a fearfull form and aspect, so that Man is afraid of his own Creature, God presents it to him, in a familiar, in an assiduous, in an agreeable and acceptable form, in sleep, that so when he awakes from sleep and says to himself, shall I be no otherwise when I am dead, than I was even now, when I was asleep, he may be ashamed of his waking dreams, and of his Melancholique fancying out a horrid and an affrightful figure of that death which is so like sleep. As then we need sleep to live out our threescore and ten years, so we need death, to live that life which we cannot out-live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Next week will be extremely heavy for earnings news , ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Next week will be extremely heavy for earnings news ,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the first in a long time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32801]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the first in a long time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a team outgrows individual performance and learns team confidence, excellence becomes a reality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58770]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a team outgrows individual performance and learns team confidence, excellence becomes a reality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of all things visible, the highest is the heaven of the fixed stars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of all things visible, the highest is the heaven of the fixed stars.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have fun like a child in the street.

If we admit that men can do very well without Christ, we accept the Saviour only as a luxury for ourselves. If they can do very well without Christ, then so could we. This is to turn our backs upon the Christ of the gospels and the Christ of Acts and to turn our faces towards law, morality, philosophy, natural religion. We look at the moral teaching of some of the heathen nations and we find it higher than we had expected... Or we look at morality in Christian lands, and we begin to wonder whether our practice is really much higher than theirs, and we say, "They are very well as they are. Leave them alone." When we so speak and think we are treating the question of the salvation of men exactly as we should have treated it had Christ never appeared in the world at all. It is an essentially pre-Christian attitude, and implies that the Son of God has not been delivered for our salvation. It suggests that the one and only way of salvation known to me is to keep the commandments. That was indeed true before the coming of the Son of God, before the Passion, before the Resurrection, before Pentecost; but after Pentecost that is no longer true. After Pentecost, the answer to any man who inquires the way of salvation is no longer "Keep the law," but "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone needs to stop saying 'I'm a Republican' or 'I'm a Democrat' and just be good Christians.

But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will. -Grenville Kleiser.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do love My country's good with a respect more tender,  More holy and profound, then mine own life, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45815]]></link><description><![CDATA[I do love My country's good with a respect more tender,  More holy and profound, then mine own life,   My dear wife's estimate, her womb increase,    And treasure of my loins.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think that [children are] any more resilient than anyone else.
