A man is too apt to forget that in this world he cannot have everything. A choice is all that is left to him. Better bend than break. Never swap horses while crossing a stream.Why not upset the apple cart? If you don't, the apples will rot anyway. There is never time to do it right, but there is always time to do it over. Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. Fail to plan, plan to fail. -Carl W. Buechner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not speak to me of law.

There is hope in the heart that chases the clouds away. Hope is a higher heart frequency and as you begin to reconnect with your heart, hope is waiting to show you new possibilities and arrest the downward spiral of grief and loneliness. It becomes a matter of how soon you want the sun to shine. Listening to the still, small voice in your heart will make hope into a reality. Sara Paddison, The Hidden Power of the Heart Hope is a higher heart frequency, and as you begin to re-connect with your heart, hope is waiting to show you new possibilities and arrest the downward spiral of grief and loneliness. Listening to the still small voice in your heart will make hope into a reality. Benjamin Franklin, preface, Poor Richard's Almanac, 1758 He that lives upon hope will die fasting. -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On the field, blacks have been able to be super giants.

For verily it is not deep words that make a man holy and upright; it is a good life which maketh a man dear to God. I had rather feel contrition than be skillful in the definition thereof. If thou knewest the whole Bible, and the sayings of all the philosophers, what should this profit thee without the love and grace of God?  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ April 11, 1996 Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  When an unskillful servant gathers many herbs, flowers, and seeds in a garden, you gather them out that are useful, and cast the rest out of sight; so Christ deals with our performances. All the ingredients of self that are in them He takes away, and adds incense to what remains, and presents it to God. This is the cause that the saints at the last day, when they meet their own duties and performances, know them not, they are so changed from what they were when they went out of their hand. "Lord, when saw we Thee naked or hungry?" So God accepts a little, and Christ makes our little a great deal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am not made for politics because I am incapable of wanting or accepting the death of the adversary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65857]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am not made for politics because I am incapable of wanting or accepting the death of the adversary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ant and the ChrysalisAn Ant nimbly running about in the sunshine in search of food cameacross a Chrysalis that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1505]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Ant and the ChrysalisAn Ant nimbly running about in the sunshine in search of food cameacross a Chrysalis that was very near its time of change. TheChrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,who then saw for the first time that it was alive. Poor, pitiableanimal! cried the Ant disdainfully. What a sad fate is yours!While I can run hither and thither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish,ascend the tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, withpower only to move a joint or two of your scaly tail. The Chrysalisheard all this, but did not try to make any reply. A few days after,when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained.Wondering what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenlyshaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful Butterfly.Behold in me, said the Butterfly, your much-pitied friend! Boastnow of your powers to run and climb as long as you can get me tolisten. So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne alongand aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of theAnt forever.Appearances are deceptive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quotations (such as have point and lack triteness) from the great old authors are an act of reverence on the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52867]]></link><description><![CDATA[Quotations (such as have point and lack triteness) from the great old authors are an act of reverence on the part of the quoter, and a blessing to a public grown superficial and external.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43971]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clearly usage on 3G shows higher revenue potential overall.

Unknown  Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don't have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it. •Greg Anderson   A man of the world must seem to be what he wishes to be thought. •Jean De La Bruyère   Wishes expand in direct proportion to the resources available for their gratification. •Robert Dato  A wish is a desire without an attempt. •Farmer Digest  Oh, the secret life of man and woman -- dreaming how much better we would be than we are if we were somebody else or even ourselves, and feeling that our estate has been unexploited to its fullest. •Zelda Fitzgerald  Men try to run life according to their wishes; life runs itself according to necessity. •Jean Toomer  Some people develop a wishbone where their backbone should be. •Anonymous  Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible. •St. Augustine   When you love someone all your saved-up wishes start coming out. •Elizabeth Bowen   Whoever, in middle age, attempts to realize the wishes and hopes of his early youth, invariably deceives himself. Each ten years of a man's life has its own fortunes, its own hopes, its own desires. •Goethe   Destiny grants us our wishes, but in its own way, in order to give us something beyond our wishes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hopefully this will get over there and, you know, maybe we can find him like we did Jill Carroll. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40947]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hopefully this will get over there and, you know, maybe we can find him like we did Jill Carroll.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God bless us every one, prayed Tiny Tim, Crippled and dwarfed of body yet so tall  Of soul, we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4321]]></link><description><![CDATA[God bless us every one, prayed Tiny Tim, Crippled and dwarfed of body yet so tall  Of soul, we tiptoe earth to look on him,   High towering over all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear of the pain blinds us to the goal of healing.
