All struggles after union, though they may be of the most abortive kind, though they may produce fresh sects and fresh divisions, though they must do so as long as they rest on the notion that unity is something visible and material, yet indicate a deep and divine necessity which men could not be conscious of in their dreams if they were not beginning to wake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man endures pain as an undeserved punishment; woman accepts it as a natural heritage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man endures pain as an undeserved punishment; woman accepts it as a natural heritage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pension never inriched young man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49708]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pension never inriched young man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He laughs best who laughs last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24215]]></link><description><![CDATA[He laughs best who laughs last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quotations help us remember the simple yet profound truths that give life perspective and meaning.

This transfigures history and experience. This puts past and present into the timeless, eternal now. This brings together God and man until Wesley talks with God as a man talks with his friend. This gives to the hymnbook its divine audacity, those passages only to be understood by such as have sat in heavenly places in Christ Jesus and, being caught up into paradise, have heard unspeakable words which it is not lawful for a man to utter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technology improves at a certain rate and some people say at today's pace, we will see limitations within the next ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technology improves at a certain rate and some people say at today's pace, we will see limitations within the next 10 years.

For how is one to appreciate the contrast of light's dawning hope if his soul has never trembled through the dark hours of a nightmare's watch? Or how can one prove God's faithfulness if he never is granted the privilege of wandering through a barren desert, where only pools of Christ's Presence can possibly provide survival? It is a great honor to be apportioned pain. Christ Himself, though God incarnate, learned obedience through what He suffered. Dare we assume that we as His children can be taught by any wiser or kinder instructor than the severity of unwanted pain? We dare not steel ourselves against our trials, running away from the fires where our pruned branches crumble to ashes. For if we escape those flames, we will risk barrenness of soul and will miss out on the beauty that only is born through the ashes of yesterday's grief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart is half a prophet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13742]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart is half a prophet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are never more discontented with others than when we are discontented with ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36444]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are never more discontented with others than when we are discontented with ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a young eagle, who has lent his plume To fledge the shaft by which he meets his doom,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13097]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like a young eagle, who has lent his plume To fledge the shaft by which he meets his doom,  See their own feathers pluck'd, to wing the dart,   Which rank corruption destines for their heart!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With vollies of eternal babble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58605]]></link><description><![CDATA[With vollies of eternal babble.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I liked what he had to say about where the team is going and what is going on in Chicago. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28465]]></link><description><![CDATA[I liked what he had to say about where the team is going and what is going on in Chicago.

From all these, sin can be known, as a tree can be known from its fruits. Yet these outward signs are not sin itself, the wages of which are death. Sin is not confined to the evil things we do. It is the evil within us, the evil which we are. Shall we call it our pride or our laziness, or shall we call it the deceit of our life? Let us call it for once the great defiance which turns us again and again into the enemies of God and of our fellowmen, even of our own selves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In America the geography is sublime, but the men are not; the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17371]]></link><description><![CDATA[In America the geography is sublime, but the men are not; the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is sometimes ashamed of.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hark! that's the nightingale, Telling the self-same tale  Her song told when this ancient earth was young:   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44557]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hark! that's the nightingale, Telling the self-same tale  Her song told when this ancient earth was young:   So echoes answered when her song was sung    In the first wooded vale.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a small hobby, family farm.
