I remember you and recall you without effort, without exercise of will; that is, by natural impulse, indicated by a sense of duty, or of obligation. And that, I take it, is the only sort of remembering worth the having. When we think of friends, and call their faces out of the shadows, and their voices out of the echoes that faint along the corridors of memory, and do it without knowing why save that we love to do it, we content ourselves that friendship is a Reality, and not a Fancy -- that it is built upon a rock, and not upon the sands that dissolve away with the ebbing tides and carry their monuments with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell is empty and all the devils are here. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19113]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hell is empty and all the devils are here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes, they just get afraid to leave, and they will do things that don't always make sense, like run, even ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes, they just get afraid to leave, and they will do things that don't always make sense, like run, even though they were going to be out within a short period of time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66842]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mistake is a Buddhist gift.Director Terry Gilliam to Robin Williams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/215]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mistake is a Buddhist gift.Director Terry Gilliam to Robin Williams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is there not some chosen curse, some hidden thunder in the stores of heaven, red with uncommon wrath, to blast ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59664]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is there not some chosen curse, some hidden thunder in the stores of heaven, red with uncommon wrath, to blast the man who owes his greatness to his country's ruin!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59664</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man ever prayed heartily without learning something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53609]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man ever prayed heartily without learning something.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that I shall never see A poem as lovely as a tree.  . . . .  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59684]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think that I shall never see A poem as lovely as a tree.  . . . .   Poems are made by fools like me,    But only God can make a tree.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evil communication corrupts good manners.

If they follow Jesus, men escape from the hard yoke of their own laws, and submit to the kindly yoke of Jesus Christ. But does this mean that we can ignore the seriousness of His command? Far from it! We can only achieve perfect liberty and enjoy fellowship with Jesus when His command, His call to absolute discipleship, is appreciated in its entirety. Only the man who follows the command of Jesus without reserve, and submits unresistingly to His yoke, finds his burden easy, and under its gentle pressure receives the power to persevere in the right way. The command of Jesus is hard -- unutterably hard -- for those who try to resist it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fishmonger's wife may feed of a conger; but a serving-man's wife may starve for hunger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20145]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fishmonger's wife may feed of a conger; but a serving-man's wife may starve for hunger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20145</guid></item></channel></rss>
