For often what is one man's life may be another's death. Therefore you should observe yourself, whether your love for God is growing and your reverence is not destroyed. Then, the more frequently you go to the Sacrament, the better you will become, and the better and more profitable it will be. And therefore be not turned away from your God by words and sermons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accuracy is the twin brother of honesty; inaccuracy, of dishonesty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/328]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accuracy is the twin brother of honesty; inaccuracy, of dishonesty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we become depends on what we read after all the professors have finished with us.

Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Balance is the enemy of art. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Balance is the enemy of art.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are at Rome live in the Roman style; if you are elsewhere live as they live elsewhere. [Lat., ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54393]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are at Rome live in the Roman style; if you are elsewhere live as they live elsewhere. [Lat., Si fueris Romae, Romano vivito more;  Si fueris alibi, vivito sicut ibi.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, brothers! let us leave the shame and sin Of taking vainly in a plaintive mood,  The holy name ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18326]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, brothers! let us leave the shame and sin Of taking vainly in a plaintive mood,  The holy name of Grief--holy herein,   That, by the grief of One, came all our good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot change anything until we accept it.
