After a long and fruitless search, he made a vow that, if he could only discover the thief who had stolen the Calf, he would offer a lamb in sacrifice to Hermes, Pan, and the Guardian Deities of the forest. Not long afterwards, as he ascended a small hillock, he saw at its foot a Lion feeding on the Calf. Terrified at the sight, he lifted his eyes and his hands to heaven, and said: Just now I vowed to offer a lamb to the Guardian Deities of the forest if I could only find out who had robbed me; but now that I have discovered the thief, I would willingly add a full-grown Bull to the Calf I have lost, if I may only secure my own escape from him in safety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To discover joy is to return to a state of oneness with the universe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44910]]></link><description><![CDATA[To discover joy is to return to a state of oneness with the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never wedding, ever wooing, Still a lovelorn heart pursuing,  Read you not the wrong you're doing   In ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62014]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never wedding, ever wooing, Still a lovelorn heart pursuing,  Read you not the wrong you're doing   In my cheek's pale hue?    All my life with sorrow strewing;     Wed or cease to woo.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My life is my argument. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63708]]></link><description><![CDATA[My life is my argument.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easier to do one's duty to others than to one's self.

What a comfort it is to know the Man in charge of it all. Without Him, it would be easy to think that the whole of time and space, and life itself, are without reason, purpose, or meaning -- as H. G. Wells said, that it is "a bad joke beyond our unterstanding, a flare of vulgarity, an empty laugh braying across the mysteries." With Jesus forever between God and us, we can understand a few things, and trust Him for the rest. After all, He is one of us: a baby once, as we all were; then, and forever after, a Man, as we all shall always be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Class is the impartial, consistent display of emotional integrity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8843]]></link><description><![CDATA[Class is the impartial, consistent display of emotional integrity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It will take a lot of officers' time to go out when a dog's squatting on someone else's property.

Every man is to work for his living. "If a man will not work, neither let him eat." But those who cannot work are to be provided for out of the common fund. Old and helpless persons who have relations of their own should, indeed, find support from them and not be forced to come upon the Church; but for the resourceless the Church must provide. And those who are rich and who earn more than enough to support their own families are to be willing contributors to the common fund. The love of money -- the desire to accumulate wealth -- is the root of every kind of evil. The relation of one to another is to be that of members in one body, in which, if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One use of prayer is to maintain in us a higher standard and prevent our principles insensibly sinking to our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7250]]></link><description><![CDATA[One use of prayer is to maintain in us a higher standard and prevent our principles insensibly sinking to our practice, or to the practice of the world around us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Times change.
