The Gospel is full of divine attempts to help and heal, in the body, mind and heart, individual men. The completed beauty of Christ's life is only the added beauty of little inconspicuous acts of beauty -- talking with the woman at the well; going far up into the North country to talk with the Syrophenician woman; showing the young ruler the stealthy ambition laid away in his heart, that kept him out of the kingdom of Heaven; shedding a tear at the grave of Lazarus; teaching a little knot of followers how to pray; preaching the Gospel one Sunday afternoon to two disciples going out to Emmaus; kindling a fire and broiling fish, that His disciples might have a breakfast waiting for them when they came ashore after a night of fishing, cold, tired, discouraged. All of these things, you see, let us in so easily into the real quality and tone of God's interests, so specific, so narrowed down, so enlisted in what is small, so engrossed in what is minute.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man in love is incomplete until he has married.

If he went out to the Ahaggar plateau, it was not only to find but also to proclaim God, thereby teaching the gospel in a way which desert people could understand. After his death, the example set by this hermit was followed by others who, far from settling in the desert places of the Sahara, set out to mingle with the peopled deserts of the great cities, there to preach the gospel by their example and their very presence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God does not ask about our ability, but our availability. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/94]]></link><description><![CDATA[God does not ask about our ability, but our availability.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/94</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War is the unfolding of miscalculations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61169]]></link><description><![CDATA[War is the unfolding of miscalculations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fatigue is the best pillow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15422]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fatigue is the best pillow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15422</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In war, there are no unwounded soldiers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61180]]></link><description><![CDATA[In war, there are no unwounded soldiers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My first season, we got three wins.

Poetic simile was strictly limited to statements like: His mighty steed was fast as the wind, on a fairly calm day, say about Force Three, any loose talk about a beloved having a face that could launch a thousand ships would have to be backed by evidence that the object of desire did indeed own a very large seaport. Patrician Olaf II was eventually killed during an experiment conducted in the palace grounds to prove the disputed accuracy of the proverb The Pen is mightier than the Sword.In his memory it was decided that the proverb would from now on include the phrase: only if the Sword is very small and the Pen very sharp.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But chiefly Thou, Whom soft-eyed Pity once led down from Heaven  To bleed for man, to teach him how ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6138]]></link><description><![CDATA[But chiefly Thou, Whom soft-eyed Pity once led down from Heaven  To bleed for man, to teach him how to live,   And, oh! still harder lesson! how to die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19599]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the shore.. one looksupward to the sanddune grass.. 10,000green brushes attemptingwhere they laidto paint the blue skyjade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3220]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the shore.. one looksupward to the sanddune grass.. 10,000green brushes attemptingwhere they laidto paint the blue skyjade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love and fear.
