But this kind of praying, which takes all its thoughts and words only from the state of our hearts, makes it impossible for us to be strangers to ourselves. The strength of every sin, the power of every evil temper, the most secret workings of our hearts, the weakness of any or all our virtues, is with a noonday clearness forced to be seen, as soon as the heart is made our prayer book, and we pray nothing, but according to what we read, and find there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Solitude is the playfield of Satan. - Pale Fire, 1962. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Solitude is the playfield of Satan. - Pale Fire, 1962.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love rules his kingdome without a sword. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love rules his kingdome without a sword.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Touring is really a pretty lonely business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34240]]></link><description><![CDATA[Touring is really a pretty lonely business.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Till the rose's lips grow pale With her sighs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54439]]></link><description><![CDATA[Till the rose's lips grow pale With her sighs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As our case is new, we must think and act anew. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64654]]></link><description><![CDATA[As our case is new, we must think and act anew.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Complain to one who can help you ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9250]]></link><description><![CDATA[Complain to one who can help you]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are high-risk, high-reward [vaccines].

Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded- here and there, now and then- are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people.

I do not pretend to understand the ways of God any more than the next man; but it is surely more fitting as well as more sensible for us to study what God does do and what He does not do as He works in and through the complex fabric of this disintegrated world, than to postulate what we think God ought to do and then feel demoralized and bitterly disappointed because He fails to fulfil what we expect of Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing Gold Can Stay ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17760]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing Gold Can Stay]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17760</guid></item></channel></rss>
