We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been on this team for four years and this is the first time we have beaten Fallbrook.

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All good things come to those who wait. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66039]]></link><description><![CDATA[All good things come to those who wait.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who steals a bugle-horn, a ring, a steed, Or such like worthless thing, has some discretion;  'Tis petty larceny: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who steals a bugle-horn, a ring, a steed, Or such like worthless thing, has some discretion;  'Tis petty larceny: not such his deed   Who robs us of our fame, our best possession.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1424]]></link><description><![CDATA[Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never wonder to see men wicked, but I often wonder to see them not ashamed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56149]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never wonder to see men wicked, but I often wonder to see them not ashamed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66677]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the time spent idly, is spent wickedly, and is unfaithfulness to our masters.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63849]]></link><description><![CDATA[All the time spent idly, is spent wickedly, and is unfaithfulness to our masters.rn]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If war is ever lawful, then peace is sometimes sinful ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61110]]></link><description><![CDATA[If war is ever lawful, then peace is sometimes sinful]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As long as ugly people are not on TV, you should only ever have interesting people on TV. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41407]]></link><description><![CDATA[As long as ugly people are not on TV, you should only ever have interesting people on TV.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41407</guid></item></channel></rss>
