For verily it is not deep words that make a man holy and upright; it is a good life which maketh a man dear to God. I had rather feel contrition than be skillful in the definition thereof. If thou knewest the whole Bible, and the sayings of all the philosophers, what should this profit thee without the love and grace of God?  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ April 11, 1996 Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  When an unskillful servant gathers many herbs, flowers, and seeds in a garden, you gather them out that are useful, and cast the rest out of sight; so Christ deals with our performances. All the ingredients of self that are in them He takes away, and adds incense to what remains, and presents it to God. This is the cause that the saints at the last day, when they meet their own duties and performances, know them not, they are so changed from what they were when they went out of their hand. "Lord, when saw we Thee naked or hungry?" So God accepts a little, and Christ makes our little a great deal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We hire people who want to make the best things in the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63979]]></link><description><![CDATA[We hire people who want to make the best things in the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life must be lived forward, but can only be understood backwards. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21252]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life must be lived forward, but can only be understood backwards.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growth means change and change involves risk, stepping from the known to the unknown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Growth means change and change involves risk, stepping from the known to the unknown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[in Just-- spring when the world is mud--  luscious the little   lame balloonman    whistles ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57784]]></link><description><![CDATA[in Just-- spring when the world is mud--  luscious the little   lame balloonman    whistles far and wee]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66632]]></link><description><![CDATA[One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To reach something good it is very useful to have gone astray, and thus acquire experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64488]]></link><description><![CDATA[To reach something good it is very useful to have gone astray, and thus acquire experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4193]]></link><description><![CDATA[A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When prosperity comes, do not use all of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1454]]></link><description><![CDATA[When prosperity comes, do not use all of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deserted, at his utmost need, By those his former bounty fed;  On the bare earth exposed he lies,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deserted, at his utmost need, By those his former bounty fed;  On the bare earth exposed he lies,   With not a friend to close his eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was the running joke in Miami, they were cutting me and recalling me so many times.

Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.  ... Jeremy Taylor  August 14, 2000 Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nursed by stern men with empires in their brains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57847]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nursed by stern men with empires in their brains.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weren't prepared, we didn't have the background information [and] we didn't have the collateral information.
