talents, had imbibed the principles of infidelity from a superficial view of the Scriptures. Fully persuaded that the Bible was an imposture, they were determined to expose [it]. Mr. West chose the Resurrection of Christ, and Lord Lyttleton the conversion of St Paul, for the subject of hostile criticism. Both sat down to their respective tasks full of prejudice and a contempt for Christianity. The results of their separate endeavours was that they were both converted by their attempts to overthrow the truth of Christianity! They came together, not as they had expected, to exult over an imposture exposed to ridicule, but to lament their folly and congratulate each other on their joint conviction, that the Bible was the word of God. Their able enquiries have furnished two most valuable treatises in favour of revelation -- one, entitled "Observations on the Conversion of St Paul", and the other, "Observations on the Resurrection of Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When something is the right thing for you to dosome will call your action 'courage.'There is a good possibility you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34406]]></link><description><![CDATA[When something is the right thing for you to dosome will call your action 'courage.'There is a good possibility you will likely call it'being myself.']]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was recently on a tour of Latin America, and the only regret I have was that I didn't study ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27957]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was recently on a tour of Latin America, and the only regret I have was that I didn't study Latin harder in school so I could converse with those people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They were in a better condition, acknowledging only a terror above them flaming on that unknown mountain height, than stooping ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8125]]></link><description><![CDATA[They were in a better condition, acknowledging only a terror above them flaming on that unknown mountain height, than stooping to worship the idol below them. Fear is nobler than sensuality. Fear is better than no God, better than a god made with hands. In that fear lay deep hidden the sense of the infinite. The worship of fear is true, though very low; and though not acceptable to God in itself -- for only the worship of spirit and of truth is acceptable to him -- yet even in His sight it is precious. For he regards men not as they are merely, but as they shall be; not as they shall be merely, but as they are now growing, or capable of growing, towards that image after which He made them that they might grow to it. Therefore a thousand stages, each in itself all but valueless, are of inestimable worth as the necessary and connected gradations of an infinite progress. A condition which of declension would indicate a devil, may of growth indicate a saint.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fact that we write about it doesn't mean we play better than ordinary players at all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28606]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fact that we write about it doesn't mean we play better than ordinary players at all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise man struggling with adversity is said by some heathen writer to be a spectacle on which the gods ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/707]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wise man struggling with adversity is said by some heathen writer to be a spectacle on which the gods might look down with pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing can so alienate a voter from the political system as backing a winning candidate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47481]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing can so alienate a voter from the political system as backing a winning candidate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,  Signifying nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51386]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,  Signifying nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51386</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Palm Sunday  Jesus Christ is a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves without ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7614]]></link><description><![CDATA[Palm Sunday  Jesus Christ is a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves without despair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some preparations are now in progress to assure the smooth organization of the meeting, and 'Management of Migratory Flows' has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36234]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some preparations are now in progress to assure the smooth organization of the meeting, and 'Management of Migratory Flows' has been selected theme of the meeting,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since twelve honest men have decided the cause, And were judges of fact, tho' not judges of laws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since twelve honest men have decided the cause, And were judges of fact, tho' not judges of laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had one lady ... we had an emergency run and she waited an hour to donate stuff. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32945]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had one lady ... we had an emergency run and she waited an hour to donate stuff.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no greater fraud than a promise not kept. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16640]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no greater fraud than a promise not kept.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two other tender drops, which ready stood, Each in their crystal sluice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50660]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two other tender drops, which ready stood, Each in their crystal sluice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I dunno.
