The Monkey came with the rest and presented, with all a mother's tenderness, a flat-nosed, hairless, ill-featured young Monkey as a candidate for the promised reward. A general laugh saluted her on the presentation of her son. She resolutely said, I know not whether Jupiter will allot the prize to my son, but this I do know, that he is at least in the eyes of me his mother, the dearest, handsomest, and most beautiful of all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[According to Jesus, by far the most important thing about praying is to keep at it...

How, then, is it with you and me? Be very sure that upon Calvary it was no strange, immoral favouritism that came into operation, whereby because of some beliefs that remain mere dead letters, that produce no change whatever in their characters, some people living the same kind of life as others and following the same selfish interests and ends as they, are given a destiny entirely different. That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you're 50 you start thinking about things you haven't thought about before.

We used to read the lives of the Saints together. And when I read of the martyrdoms which they suffered for the love of God, I used to think that they had bought their entry into God's presence very cheaply. Then I fervently longed to die like them, not out of any conscious love for Him, but in order to attain, as quickly as they had, those joys which, as I read, are laid up in Heaven. I used to discuss with my brother ways and means of becoming martyrs, and we agreed to go together to the land of the Moors, begging our way for the love of God, so that we might be beheaded there. I believe that our Lord had given us courage enough even at that tender age, if only we could have seen a way. But our parents seemed to us a very great hindrance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What fates impose, that men must needs abide; It boots not to resist both wind and tide ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15367]]></link><description><![CDATA[What fates impose, that men must needs abide; It boots not to resist both wind and tide]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever you\'re selling, storage or networking or security, you\'re going head to head with the incumbent players. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever you\'re selling, storage or networking or security, you\'re going head to head with the incumbent players.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and repeat to yourself, the most comforting words of all; This, too, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21272]]></link><description><![CDATA[Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and repeat to yourself, the most comforting words of all; This, too, shall pass.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The earth laughs in flowers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66422]]></link><description><![CDATA[The earth laughs in flowers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66422</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hope will lie to you, but lust is what it is; it never lies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hope will lie to you, but lust is what it is; it never lies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lesson is that you can still make mistakes and be forgiven. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63568]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lesson is that you can still make mistakes and be forgiven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be meek, patient, tactful, modest, honorable, brave, is not to be either manly or womanly; it is to be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58547]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be meek, patient, tactful, modest, honorable, brave, is not to be either manly or womanly; it is to be humane.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58547</guid></item></channel></rss>
