A new baby is like the beginning of all things -- wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities. In a world that is cutting down its trees to build highways, losing its earth to concrete... babies are almost the only remaining link with nature, with the natural world of living things from which we spring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though God take the sunne out of the Heaven, yet we must have patience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49974]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though God take the sunne out of the Heaven, yet we must have patience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forget about likes and dislikes.

Such effort is likely to be arduous and painful in proportion to the height of the ideal, desperate in proportion to the sensitiveness of the conscience. A morbid scrupulousness besets the morally serious soul. It is anxious and troubled, afraid of evil, haunted by the memory of failure. The best of the Pharisees tended in this direction, and no less the best of the Stoics.

The surest symbol of spiritual earnestness will be the checkbook, the affections, and the ego-drive surrendered to Him. A disciple must have discipline. He must not be afraid of being asked by God for some of the time, the money, and the pleasure he has been in the habit of calling his "own". This does not mean that there will not be time for the family, and time for some healthy diversion. But it does mean that we are never -- on vacation, or wherever we may be -- exempt from our primary commitment to Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no one will even publish their letter to the editor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1328]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just have to take charge and get the job done, we had our opportunities and that's the name of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38262]]></link><description><![CDATA[We just have to take charge and get the job done, we had our opportunities and that's the name of the game.
