And how absurd would it be that in satisfying men you should incur the displeasure of him for whose sake you obey men themselves! The Lord, therefore, is the King of Kings, who, when he has opened his sacred mouth, must alone be heard, before all and above all men; next to him we are subject to those men who are in authority over us, but only in him. If they command anything against him, let it go unesteemed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What loneliness is more lonely than distrust? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12574]]></link><description><![CDATA[What loneliness is more lonely than distrust?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our power is in our ability to decide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22058]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our power is in our ability to decide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Journalism without a moral position is impossible.

Oh, Thou didst know that Thy deed would be recorded in books, would be handed down to remote times and the utmost ends of the earth, and Thou didst hope that man, following Thee, would cling to God and not ask for a miracle. But Thou didst not know that when man rejects miracle he rejects God too; for man seeks not so much God as the miraculous. And as man cannot bear to be without the miraculous, he will create new miracles of his own for himself, and will worship deeds of sorcery and witchcraft, though he might be a hundred times over a rebel, heretic and infidel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60304</guid></item></channel></rss>
