Such churches may invite and suffer temporary periods of unpopularity -- by standing up for West Indian immigrants, say, or refusing indiscriminate baptism. But on the whole, the storms are weathered by churches, and ministers, whose interest in the community and presentation of the faith [are] alert and genuine. Even so, the Church has every excuse for getting itself disliked: none at all for escaping notice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whene'er with haggard eyes I view This dungeon that I'm rotting in,  I think of those companions true  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whene'er with haggard eyes I view This dungeon that I'm rotting in,  I think of those companions true   Who studied with me at the U-    Niversity of Gottingen.   - George Canning, Song--Of One Eleven Years in Prison,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45178]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The purpose of foreign policy is not to provide an outlet for our own sentiments of hope or indignation; it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16451]]></link><description><![CDATA[The purpose of foreign policy is not to provide an outlet for our own sentiments of hope or indignation; it is to shape real events in a real world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16451</guid></item></channel></rss>
