A being outside our world would be a spectator, looking on but taking no part in this life, where we try to be brave despite all the bafflement. A god who created, and withdrew, could be mighty, but he could not be love. Who could love a God remote, when suffering is our lot? Our God is closer than our problems, for they are out there, to be faced; He is here, beside us, Emmanuel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Qualities absolutely necessary for a historian: (1) Imagination.

Perceiving their simplicity, he cast down a huge log into the lake. The Frogs were terrified at the splash occasioned by its fall and hid themselves in the depths of the pool. But as soon as they realized that the huge log was motionless, they swam again to the top of the water, dismissed their fears, climbed up, and began squatting on it in contempt. After some time they began to think themselves ill-treated in the appointment of so inert a Ruler, and sent a second deputation to Jupiter to pray that he would set over them another sovereign. He then gave them an Eel to govern them. When the Frogs discovered his easy good nature, they sent yet a third time to Jupiter to beg him to choose for them still another King. Jupiter, displeased with all their complaints, sent a Heron, who preyed upon the Frogs day by day till there were none left to croak upon the lake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A letter always seemed to me like immortality because it is the mind alone without corporeal friend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20619]]></link><description><![CDATA[A letter always seemed to me like immortality because it is the mind alone without corporeal friend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Antidotes are what you take to prevent dotes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58064]]></link><description><![CDATA[Antidotes are what you take to prevent dotes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Twixt hope and fear, anxiety and anger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50375]]></link><description><![CDATA['Twixt hope and fear, anxiety and anger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Belief is best when uncomplicated by reason. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15045]]></link><description><![CDATA[Belief is best when uncomplicated by reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But there are times when patience proves at fault. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45712]]></link><description><![CDATA[But there are times when patience proves at fault.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Low humidity and high winds allow for a fire to get out of control. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37351]]></link><description><![CDATA[Low humidity and high winds allow for a fire to get out of control.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64768]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Outside noisy, inside empty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21412]]></link><description><![CDATA[Outside noisy, inside empty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Venerable Bede, Priest, Monk of Jarrow, Historian, 735 Commemoration of Aldhelm, Abbot of Mamsbury, Bishop of Sherborne, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6797]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Venerable Bede, Priest, Monk of Jarrow, Historian, 735 Commemoration of Aldhelm, Abbot of Mamsbury, Bishop of Sherborne, 709   When we inculcate that faith ought to be certain and secure, we conceive not of a certainty attended with no doubt, or of a security interrupted by no anxiety; but we rather affirm, that believers have a perpetual conflict with their own diffidence, and are far from placing their consciences in a placid calm never disturbed by any storms.
