But this inward work of God, though never ceasing or altering, is yet always and only hindered by the activity of our own nature and faculties, by bad men through their obedience to earthly passions and by good men through their striving to be good in their own way, by their natural strength and a multiplicity of holy labours and contrivances. Both these sorts of people obstruct the work of God upon their souls. For we can cooperate with God no other way than by submitting to the work of God, and seeking, and leaving ourselves to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So live with an inferior as you would wish a superior to live with you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51182]]></link><description><![CDATA[So live with an inferior as you would wish a superior to live with you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am what libraries and librarians have made me, with little assistance from a professor of Greek and poets. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64904]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am what libraries and librarians have made me, with little assistance from a professor of Greek and poets.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time has convinced me of one thing: Television is for appearing on--not for looking at. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time has convinced me of one thing: Television is for appearing on--not for looking at.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rage of a wild boar is able to spoil more then one wood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49904]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rage of a wild boar is able to spoil more then one wood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One stop.

He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One travels more usefully when alone, because he reflects more. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65240]]></link><description><![CDATA[One travels more usefully when alone, because he reflects more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There, Shakespeare, on whose forehead climb The crowns o' the world.

It was perfectly dry in spite of the fact that it had been immersed in water for centuries. The same is true of many people in the Western world. For centuries they have been surrounded by Christianity; they live immersed in the waters of its benefits. And yet it has not penetrated their hearts; they do not love it. The fault is not in Christianity, but in men's hearts, which have been hardened by materialism and intellectualism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We ne'er shall look upon his like again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51247]]></link><description><![CDATA[We ne'er shall look upon his like again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16062]]></link><description><![CDATA[Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Variety's the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavour. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48936]]></link><description><![CDATA[Variety's the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavour.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48936</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take no repulse, whatever she doth say; For 'get you gone,' she doth not mean 'away.'  Flatter and praise, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16175]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take no repulse, whatever she doth say; For 'get you gone,' she doth not mean 'away.'  Flatter and praise, commend, extol their graces;   Though ne'er so black, say they have angels' faces.    That man that hath a tongue, I say is no man,     If with his tongue he cannot win a woman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Isolating the transportation budget and postponing action on it will only exacerbate the crisis. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40906]]></link><description><![CDATA[Isolating the transportation budget and postponing action on it will only exacerbate the crisis.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief  That thou her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief  That thou her maid art far more fair than she.   Be not her maid, since she is envious.    Her vestal livery is but sick and green,     And none but fools do wear it.
