Accordingly we must note the general forms by which no one from first to last (as people say) is excluded, provided sincerity of heart, dissatisfaction with ourselves, humility, and faith are present in order that our hypocrisy may not profane God's name by calling upon him deceitfully. Our most gracious Father will not cast out those whom he not only urges, but stirs up with every possible means, to come to him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quick as a humming bird is my love, Dipping into the hearts of flowers--  She darts so eagerly, swiftly, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20045]]></link><description><![CDATA[Quick as a humming bird is my love, Dipping into the hearts of flowers--  She darts so eagerly, swiftly, sweetly   Dipping into the flowers of my heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A master of straw eates a servant of steele. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49061]]></link><description><![CDATA[A master of straw eates a servant of steele.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is good to rub and polish our brain against that of others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64281]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is good to rub and polish our brain against that of others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tyrant dies and his rule is over, the martyr dies and his rule begins ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59946]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tyrant dies and his rule is over, the martyr dies and his rule begins]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The toughest thing about the power of trust is that it's very difficult tobuild and very easy to destroy.

Hence it was firmly seated first on the great lines of communication across the empire, leading from its origin in Jerusalem to its imperial center in Rome. It had already struck root in Rome within little more than twenty years after the Crucifixion, and it had become really strong in the great city about thirty years after the Apostles began to look round and out from Jerusalem. This marvelous development was possible only because the seed of the new thought floated free on the main currents of communication, which were ever sweeping back and forward between the heart of the Empire and its outlying members. Paul, who mainly directed the great movement, threw himself boldly and confidently into the life of the time; he took the Empire as it was, accepted its political conformation and arrangement, and sought only to touch the spiritual and moral life of the people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship that flows from the heart cannot be frozen by adversity, as the water that flows from the spring cannot ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship that flows from the heart cannot be frozen by adversity, as the water that flows from the spring cannot congeal in winter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure is a shadow, wealth is vanity, and power a pageant; butknowledge is ecstatic in enjoyment, perennial in frame, unlimited ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure is a shadow, wealth is vanity, and power a pageant; butknowledge is ecstatic in enjoyment, perennial in frame, unlimited in spaceand indefinite in duration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fellow mixes blood with his colors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45430]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fellow mixes blood with his colors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the electronics that have been added, the farmer can put a black box in the tractor or combine and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28700]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the electronics that have been added, the farmer can put a black box in the tractor or combine and just push a button telling all that stuff how to react to the different sensors.

When we select for serious consideration those doctrines which "transcend" the thought of his own age and are "for all time", we are assuming that the thought of our age is correct: for of course by thoughts which transcend the great man's age we really mean thoughts that agree with ours. Thus I value Shakespeare's picture of the transformation in old Lear more than I value his views about the divine right of kings, because I agree with Shakespeare that a man can be purified by suffering like Lear, but do not believe that kings (or any other rulers) have divine right in the sense required. When the great man's views do not seem to us erroneous we do not value them the less for having been shared with his contemporaries. Shakespeare's disdain for treachery and Christ's blessing on the poor were not alien to the outlook of their respective periods; but no one wishes to discredit them on that account.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Employees make the best dates.
