For to seek for eminence and significancy in grace is but like seeking for eminence and significancy in nature. And the old man can relish glory and distinction in religion as well as in common life, and will be content to undergo as many labours, pains, and self-denials for the sake of religious, as for the sake of secular glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding. -Ralph Waldo Emerson. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45989]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding. -Ralph Waldo Emerson.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read.

Jesus said, What the masters in Israel teach, what the Pharisees and the Scribes teach, is perfectly correct. There was no dogma which was the cause of controversy between Jesus and the nation; there was no new custom that Jesus introduced: He went into the Temple every day, He observed the ordinances and festivals of Israel. What was the subject of dispute and controversy between Jesus and the Jews? It was no doctrine, it was no innovation, it was Jesus Himself whom they rejected. There was an antipathy in them to the person of Jesus: it was the Lord Himself whom they hated, because they hated the Father... But Jesus knew... that it was because He was one with the Father, because He was the express image of His being, because He was the perfect manifestation of the character of God, that they hated Him; and therefore Jesus was pained, not because they hated Him, but because they hated in Him the Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that will be served must bee patient. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49407]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that will be served must bee patient.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels.

Now know I well how that fond phantasy  Which made my soul the worshipper and thrall  Of earthly art, is vain; how criminal Is that which all men seek unwillingly. Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed,  What are they when the double death is nigh?  The one I know for sure, the other dread.
