It is not humility -- it is petty pride, withholding its simple gifts from the hands of Christ because they are not more pretentious. There are men who would endow colleges, they say, if they were millionaires. They would help in the work of Bible study if they were as gifted as Henry Drummond. They would strive to lead their associates into the Christian life if they had the gifts of Dwight L. Moody. But they are not ready to give what they have and do what they can and be as it has pleased God to make them, in His service -- and that is their condemnation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one lies so boldly as the man who is indignant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63616]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one lies so boldly as the man who is indignant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The idea is to make the chambers speak to the governments to implement these proposals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42605]]></link><description><![CDATA[The idea is to make the chambers speak to the governments to implement these proposals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the last couple of months, I've been contacting clients and giving them that opportunity.

[Francis] always knew where the real miracle lay. It was not in things that happened to his body, though they were wonderful enough. It was not to be found in the fact that birds and beasts, even the wolf of Gubbio, felt the spell of his spirit. It was the radiance of light and love breaking across the darkness and hate of the world and his time. He loved lepers. He loved robbers and changed their lives. He loved beggars in their rags. He loved rich men, too, and members of the Church, who needed him as much as the robbers did. He brought Christianity out of forms and creeds and services into the open air, in action and into the movements of life. He changed the entire line of march of religion in the Western World. Brother Masseo, half jesting, asked him once why the whole world was running after him, not very comely, not very wise, not of noble birth. "Why after thee?" "God chose me," Francis answered, "because He could find no one more worthless, and He wished by me to confound the nobility and grandeur, the strength and beauty and learning of the world." But the real answer is that here at last in this wonderful man was an organ of that Spirit which was in Christ, and a marvelous transmitter of it to the world. The divine agape went out into men's lives through him. Here was a childlike lover of men, ready, if need be, to be crucified for love, but also ready in humble everyday tasks to reveal this love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For a man's house is his castle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19616]]></link><description><![CDATA[For a man's house is his castle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moral virtues, then, are produced in us neither by nature nor against nature.
