This agreement being made, the Physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little. And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment. The Old Woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing. The Physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the Judge. The Old Woman, standing up in the Court, argued: This man here speaks the truth in what he says; for I did promise to give him a sum of money if I should recover my sight: but if I continued blind, I was to give him nothing. Now he declares that I am healed. I on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: but now, though he swears I am cured of my blindness, I am not able to see a single thing in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All a musician can do is to get closer to the sources of nature, and so feel that he is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23140]]></link><description><![CDATA[All a musician can do is to get closer to the sources of nature, and so feel that he is in communion with the natural laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can accept the theory of relativity as little as I can accept the existence of atoms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53426]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can accept the theory of relativity as little as I can accept the existence of atoms.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22458]]></link><description><![CDATA[Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet Mercy! to the gates of Heaven This minstrel lead, his sins forgiven;  The rueful conflict, the heart riven ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweet Mercy! to the gates of Heaven This minstrel lead, his sins forgiven;  The rueful conflict, the heart riven   With vain endeavour,    And memory of earth's bitter leaven     Effaced forever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41192]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11947]]></link><description><![CDATA[Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With spots quadrangular of diamond form, Ensanguined hearts, clubs typical of strife,  And spades, the emblems of untimely graves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5237]]></link><description><![CDATA[With spots quadrangular of diamond form, Ensanguined hearts, clubs typical of strife,  And spades, the emblems of untimely graves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Newspapers have an agenda that does not match people's opinions in many cases, ...

And if your prayer is only a form of words, made by the skill of other people, such a prayer can no more change you into a good man, than an actor upon the stage, who speaks kingly language, is thereby made to be a king: whereas one thought, or word, or look, towards God, proceeding from your own heart, can never be without its proper fruit, or fail of doing a real good to your soul. Again, another great and infallible benefit of this kind of prayer is this; it is the only way to be delivered from the deceitfulness of your own hearts.
