The Holy Spirit supports our helplessness. Left to ourselves we do not know what prayers to offer or how to offer them. But in those inarticulate groans which rise from the depth of our being, we recognize the voice of none other than the Holy Spirit. He makes intercession; and His intercession is sure to be answered. For God Who searches the inmost recesses of the heart can interpret His own Spirit's meaning. He knows that His own Will regulates Its petitions, and that they are offered for men dedicated to His service.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Little-known fact: When the stock exchange closes, the guy who comes out on the balcony with that big hammer slams ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59502]]></link><description><![CDATA[Little-known fact: When the stock exchange closes, the guy who comes out on the balcony with that big hammer slams it on the head of the person who lost the most money that day]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first thing a man will do for his ideals is lie. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52159]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first thing a man will do for his ideals is lie.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't have to experience it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14693]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't have to experience it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The quietly pacifist peaceful always die to make room for men who shout ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45360]]></link><description><![CDATA[The quietly pacifist peaceful always die to make room for men who shout]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's hard for the modern generation to understand Thoreau, who lived beside a pond but didn't own water skis or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43934]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's hard for the modern generation to understand Thoreau, who lived beside a pond but didn't own water skis or a snorkel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not a combative person.
