Among other things, he said that when he was at Rhodes he had leaped to such a distance that no man of his day could leap anywhere near him as to that, there were in Rhodes many persons who saw him do it and whom he could call as witnesses. One of the bystanders interrupted him, saying: Now, my good man, if this be all true there is no need of witnesses. Suppose this to be Rhodes, and leap for us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10341]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This act calls for parental notification to one parent before a minor obtains an abortion, but New Hampshire law also ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39781]]></link><description><![CDATA[This act calls for parental notification to one parent before a minor obtains an abortion, but New Hampshire law also contains exceptions and provides adequate safeguards to protect any minor facing emergent health risks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alex takes up a lot of cage and he plays good angles.

Does anyone today remember how the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion? It is said that he had a vision -- saw a cross in the sky with the inscription, "In this sign shalt thou conquer." He accepted the new faith promptly, because he thought it would defeat his enemies for him. That is man's Christianity, a means to earthly triumph. And in our present crisis we are appealing to it to defeat the Russians for us. We hear of the life-and-death struggle between Christianity and Communism, the necessity of "keeping God alive as a social force" -- as if our Lord could not survive a Soviet victory! It is a poor sort of faith that imagines Christ defeated by anything men can do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you will study the history of Christ's ministry from Baptism to Ascension, you will discover that it is mostly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7429]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you will study the history of Christ's ministry from Baptism to Ascension, you will discover that it is mostly made up of little words, little deeds, little prayers, little sympathies, adding themselves together in unwearied succession. The Gospel is full of divine attempts to help and heal, in the body, mind and heart, individual men. The completed beauty of Christ's life is only the added beauty of little inconspicuous acts of beauty -- talking with the woman at the well; going far up into the North country to talk with the Syrophenician woman; showing the young ruler the stealthy ambition laid away in his heart, that kept him out of the kingdom of Heaven; shedding a tear at the grave of Lazarus; teaching a little knot of followers how to pray; preaching the Gospel one Sunday afternoon to two disciples going out to Emmaus; kindling a fire and broiling fish, that His disciples might have a breakfast waiting for them when they came ashore after a night of fishing, cold, tired, discouraged. All of these things, you see, let us in so easily into the real quality and tone of God's interests, so specific, so narrowed down, so enlisted in what is small, so engrossed in what is minute.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or soar aloft to be the spangled skies And gaze upon her with a thousand eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57833]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or soar aloft to be the spangled skies And gaze upon her with a thousand eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He'll be with us when training camp opens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32640]]></link><description><![CDATA[He'll be with us when training camp opens.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want to be the place where people can rent, buy or trade movies or games, in store or online. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38626]]></link><description><![CDATA[We want to be the place where people can rent, buy or trade movies or games, in store or online.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I despise the pleasure of pleasing people that I despise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46716]]></link><description><![CDATA[I despise the pleasure of pleasing people that I despise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because we can expect future generations to be richer than we are, no matter what we do about resources, asking ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47488]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because we can expect future generations to be richer than we are, no matter what we do about resources, asking us to refrain from using resources now so that future generations can have them later is like asking the poor to make gifts to the rich.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Benefits please like flowers while they are fresh. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49154]]></link><description><![CDATA[Benefits please like flowers while they are fresh.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49154</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a lust in man no charm can tame: Of loudly publishing his neighbor's shame: On eagles wings immortal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17911]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a lust in man no charm can tame: Of loudly publishing his neighbor's shame: On eagles wings immortal scandals fly, while virtuous actions are born and die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children today are tyrants.
