It is not an idea in the air but feet on the ground going God's way. It is not an exotic to be kept under glass, but a hardy plant to bear twelve months of fruits in all kinds of weather. Fidelity to duty is its root and branch. Nothing we can say to the Lord, no calling Him by great or dear names, can take the place of the plain doing of His will. We may cry out about the beauty of eating bread with Him in His kingdom, but it is wasted breath and a rootless hope unless we plow and plant in His kingdom here and now. To remember Him at His table and to forget Him at ours, is to have invested in bad securities. There is no substitute for plain, every-day goodness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trust not him that hath once broken faith. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51326]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trust not him that hath once broken faith.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Down on your knees, And thank Heaven, fasting, for a good man's love. -As You Like It.

You do get into situations where you think, 'What should I do? Shouldn't I intervene? Shouldn't I do something?' I think if you get to that point you have to make a decision. I've said to people, if you feel it's wrong just being a reporter and you can't do enough, well it's time to become an aid worker and train to be someone who really knows what to do. No good standing around snapping a notebook.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With me, it's just about playing football.

Beauty exalts, but beauty also lulls. Early associations endear, but they also confuse.
