Here lies the ground of the great efficacy of prayer, which when it is the prayer of the heart, the prayer of faith, has a kindling and creating power, and forms and transforms the soul into everything that the desire reaches after: it has the key to the Kingdom of Heaven and unlocks all its treasures; it opens, extends and moves that in us which has its being and motion in and with the divine nature. and so it brings us into real union and Communion with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have not yet begun to fight! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47229]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have not yet begun to fight!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have an infinate number of monkeys and an infinate number of Sparcs, they will eventually code Solaris. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57110]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have an infinate number of monkeys and an infinate number of Sparcs, they will eventually code Solaris.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Begin somewhere; you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3979]]></link><description><![CDATA[Begin somewhere; you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/489]]></link><description><![CDATA[Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/489</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is an interesting and demonstrable fact, that all children are atheists and were religion not inculcated into their minds, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3413]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is an interesting and demonstrable fact, that all children are atheists and were religion not inculcated into their minds, they would remain so]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I need not shout my faith.

Because of the role they have been willing to play, when they use the word God it is heard in a certain way. It is heard, often with deference and usually with courtesy, as a word referring to the linchpin of the era of Christendom (past) or as the totem of one of the tribal subcultures (irrelevant). The only way clergy can ever change the way in which the word they use is perceived is to refuse to play the role of antiquarian and medicine man in which the society casts them; but this is difficult, because it is what they are paid for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ass and the MuleA muleteer set forth on a journey, driving before him an Ass and a Mule, both ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1554]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Ass and the MuleA muleteer set forth on a journey, driving before him an Ass and a Mule, both well laden. The Ass, as long as he traveled along the plain, carried his load with ease, but when he began to ascend the steep path of the mountain, felt his load to be more than he could bear. He entreated his companion to relieve him of a small portion, that he might carry home the rest; but the Mule paid no attention to the request. The Ass shortly afterwards fell down dead under his burden. Not knowing what else to do in so wild a region, the Muleteer placed upon the Mule the load carried by the Ass in addition to his own, and at the top of all placed the hide of the Ass, after he had skinned him. The Mule, groaning beneath his heavy burden, said to himself: I am treated according to my deserts. If I had only been willing to assist the Ass a little in his need, I should not now be bearing, together with his burden, himself as well.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think education is power.
