For when the heart really pants and longs after God, its prayer is a praying, as moved and animated by the Spirit of God; it is the breath or inspiration of God, stirring, moving and opening itself in the heart. For though the early nature, our old man, can oblige or accustom himself to take heavenly words at certain times into his mouth, yet this is a certain truth, that nothing ever did, or can have the least desire or tendency to ascend to heaven, but that which came down from heaven; and therefore nothing in the heart can pray, aspire, and long after God, but the Spirit of God moving and stirring in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Government is not reason, it is not eloquence -- it is force. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Government is not reason, it is not eloquence -- it is force.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you share with someone else, and you don't agree with the person you share with, there's no sovereignty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42454]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you share with someone else, and you don't agree with the person you share with, there's no sovereignty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Search then the ruling passion; there alone, The wild are constant, and the cunning known;  The fool consistent, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45608]]></link><description><![CDATA[Search then the ruling passion; there alone, The wild are constant, and the cunning known;  The fool consistent, and the false sincere;   Priests, princes, women, no dissemblers here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always think I'm feeling it, but unfortunately I haven't had too many great shooting nights this season.

The hungry sheep, that crave the living Bread. Grow few, and lean, and feeble as can be, When fed not Gospel, but philosophy; Not Love's eternal story, no, not this, But apt allusion, keen analysis. Discourse well framed -- forgot as soon as heard -- Man's thin dilution of the living Word.
