For verily it is not deep words that make a man holy and upright; it is a good life which maketh a man dear to God. I had rather feel contrition than be skillful in the definition thereof. If thou knewest the whole Bible, and the sayings of all the philosophers, what should this profit thee without the love and grace of God?  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ April 11, 1996 Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  When an unskillful servant gathers many herbs, flowers, and seeds in a garden, you gather them out that are useful, and cast the rest out of sight; so Christ deals with our performances. All the ingredients of self that are in them He takes away, and adds incense to what remains, and presents it to God. This is the cause that the saints at the last day, when they meet their own duties and performances, know them not, they are so changed from what they were when they went out of their hand. "Lord, when saw we Thee naked or hungry?" So God accepts a little, and Christ makes our little a great deal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Terms ill defined, and forms misunderstood, And customs, when their reasons are unknown,  Have stirred up many zealous souls ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62637]]></link><description><![CDATA[Terms ill defined, and forms misunderstood, And customs, when their reasons are unknown,  Have stirred up many zealous souls   To fight against imaginary giants.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man will revel long in the indulgence of crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48610]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man will revel long in the indulgence of crime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Claret is the liquor for boys; port for men; but he who aspires to be a hero must drink brandy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Claret is the liquor for boys; port for men; but he who aspires to be a hero must drink brandy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, once in each man's life, at least, Good luck knocks at his door;  And wit to seize the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26007]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, once in each man's life, at least, Good luck knocks at his door;  And wit to seize the flitting guest   Need never hunger more.    But while the loitering idler waits     Good luck beside his fire,      The bold heart storms at fortune's gates,       And conquers its desire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature abhors a vacuum but why do most people hasten to fill in the blanks with garbage? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54550]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature abhors a vacuum but why do most people hasten to fill in the blanks with garbage?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Debt is the slavery of the free ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11474]]></link><description><![CDATA[Debt is the slavery of the free]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prosperity is the blessing of the Old Testament; Adversity is the blessing of the New. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4311]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prosperity is the blessing of the Old Testament; Adversity is the blessing of the New.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common.

The Hare, believing her assertion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal. On the day appointed for the race the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep. At last waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the Tortoise had reached the goal, and was comfortably dozing after her fatigue. Slow but steady wins the race.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44343]]></link><description><![CDATA[I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So Bhutan would stand out as a model, and Haiti is at the other end, ...
