But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Revenge is always the weak pleasure of a little and narrow mind. [Lat., Semper et infirmi est animi exiguique voluptas ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54087]]></link><description><![CDATA[Revenge is always the weak pleasure of a little and narrow mind. [Lat., Semper et infirmi est animi exiguique voluptas Ultio.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had our chance and Phil hit a screamer, but they made the play. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37425]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had our chance and Phil hit a screamer, but they made the play.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Commemoration of Helena, Protector of the Faith, 330   Wherever we turn in the church of God, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8324]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Commemoration of Helena, Protector of the Faith, 330   Wherever we turn in the church of God, there is Jesus. He is the beginning, middle, and end of everything to us... There is nothing good, nothing holy, nothing beautiful, nothing joyous, which He is not to His servants. No one need be poor, because, if he chooses, he can have Jesus for his own property and possession. No one need be downcast, for Jesus is the joy of heaven, and it is His joy to enter into sorrowful hearts. We can exaggerate about many things; but we can never exaggerate our obligation to Jesus., or the compassionate abundance of the love of Jesus to us. All our lives long we might talk of Jesus, and yet we should never come to an end of the sweet things that night be said of Him. Eternity will not be long enough to learn all He is, or to praise Him for all He has done -- but then, that matters not; for we shall be always with Him, and we desire nothing more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Grammar is the logic of speech, even as logic is the grammar of reason. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18130]]></link><description><![CDATA[Grammar is the logic of speech, even as logic is the grammar of reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Crime is contagious.

If therefore we depart without profit, our zeal in frequenting the church will prove our condemnation. That so great a judgment comes not upon you, when ye go hence ponder the things ye have heard, and exercise yourselves in confirming our instruction -- friend with friend, fathers with their children, masters with their slaves -- so that, when ye return hither and hear from us the same counsels, ye may not be ashamed, but rejoice and be glad in the conviction that ye have put into practice the greater part of our exhortation. Not only must we meditate upon these things here -- for this short exhortation sufficeth not to eradicate the evil -- but at home let the husband be reminded of them by the wife, and the wife by the husband, and let an emulation obtain in families to the fulfilment of the divine law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've never been an intellectual but I have this look. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46404]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've never been an intellectual but I have this look.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man, however strong, can serve ten years as schoolmaster, priest, or Senator, and remain fit for anything else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9770]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man, however strong, can serve ten years as schoolmaster, priest, or Senator, and remain fit for anything else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like her because she smiles at me and means it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65743]]></link><description><![CDATA[I like her because she smiles at me and means it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're seeing good demand for the euro. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30650]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're seeing good demand for the euro.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opinion is the main thing which does harm or good in the world.
