The vocation is answered in the home and office and factory and field. There it is that the People of God bears its witness to the vocation of the People of God, a people with a people's diversity and complex vitality, a people comprising a multiplicity of cultures and histories and colours and tongues, a people and not a collection of individuals, a people bound together in allegiance to one King and in obedience to one purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Strengthen me by sympathizing with my strength not my weakness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58511]]></link><description><![CDATA[Strengthen me by sympathizing with my strength not my weakness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Summer looks out from her brazen tower, Through the flashing bars of July. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23562]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Summer looks out from her brazen tower, Through the flashing bars of July.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63738]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that keeps not crust nor crum Weary of all, shall want some. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13263]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that keeps not crust nor crum Weary of all, shall want some.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1240  As a man increases in moral strength of character, so his conscience becomes more sensitive; he realizes more keenly the distance that separates him from the ideal, and hence the weight of the feeling of guiltiness oppresses him ever more heavily. Growth in goodness does not, therefore, necessarily imply increased happiness, on the contrary, it may mean greater unhappiness. And his unhappiness increasing in proportion to the elevation of his ethical standards, a man's end is either Buddha or suicide if he knows no God; while if he knows God, it is despair or that conversion which, having sobbed away its tears on the Father's breast, thence derives ever new strength to fight the battle of life, sure of the final victory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62494]]></link><description><![CDATA[An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every politician should have been born an orphan and remain a bachelor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47241]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every politician should have been born an orphan and remain a bachelor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47241</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She can cover a lot of ground and is our quarterback in the outfield.

The passage of Scripture which subdued and controlled my mind was this, "The servant of the Lord must not strive." It was painful indeed to see the church, with the exception of the aisles, almost forsaken; but I thought that if God would only give a double blessing to the congregation that did attend, there would on the whole be as much good done as if the congregation were doubled and the blessing limited to only half the amount. This comforted me many, many times, when, without such a reflection, I should have sunk under my burden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm getting faster, ...
