And men see his good works, and admire them in spite of themselves, and see that they are God-like, and that God's grace is no dream, but that the Holy Spirit is still among men, and that all nobleness and manliness is His gift, His stamp, His picture: and so they get a glimpse of God again in His saints and heroes, and glorify their Father who is in heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good taste is the modesty of the mind; that is why it cannot be either imitated or acquired. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42921]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good taste is the modesty of the mind; that is why it cannot be either imitated or acquired.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can only say this situation presented me with an opportunity to move forward.

Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lengthening shadows wait The first pale stars of twilight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59921]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lengthening shadows wait The first pale stars of twilight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[bring stability to the country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28273]]></link><description><![CDATA[bring stability to the country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even to smile at the misfortunes of others is to do an injury. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even to smile at the misfortunes of others is to do an injury.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a garden in her face, Where roses and white lilies blow;  A heavenly paradise is that place, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14854]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a garden in her face, Where roses and white lilies blow;  A heavenly paradise is that place,   Wherein all pleasant fruits do grow.    There cherries grow that none may buy,     Till cherry ripe themselves do cry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like giving birth to a kindergartener, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40182]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's like giving birth to a kindergartener,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Responsibility and danger do not tend to free or stimulate the average person's mind- rather the contrary; but wherever they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52219]]></link><description><![CDATA[Responsibility and danger do not tend to free or stimulate the average person's mind- rather the contrary; but wherever they do liberate an individual's judgement and confidence we can be sure that we are in the presence of exceptional ability.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16798]]></link><description><![CDATA[I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Hidden Power of the Heart -Sara Paddison. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1840]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Hidden Power of the Heart -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wealth maketh many friends.
