The phrases are in languages throughout Europe: the devil's hoof, the devil's horn mark. It reaches back to early Christianity and the middle ages. Where a child was born out of wedlock, the church cooked up the impression that you'd done something sinful, and something dreadful would result. You will still find, particularly in Greece, people doing a little sign when they see a very badly disabled child ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ it needs warding off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel real good, not tired at all.

They are trying to save the Christians out of this labyrinth by reuniting the divided churches, by forming an alliance of churches, or by trying to form an ecumenical church. For all that, it seems very difficult to obtain the desired result, because all the present churches are still standing on the principles of the Reformation, unable to rid themselves of the sectarian spirit inherited from Catholicism. So the number of denominations and sects shows no sign of decreasing, and all efforts to unite the churches seem likely to end only in the formation of yet other sects and denominations. Yet the center of Christianity is neither institution nor organization. Nor is it even the Bible itself, as the Reformers made it, for the Eklesia existed before the formation of the New Testament canon. Christians were in fellowship with God and one another, centering their faith in Christ, long before there was any accepted New Testament. There is only one center of Christianity -- spiritual fellowship with God through Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the moon's fair image quaketh In the raging waves of ocean,  Whilst she, in the vault of heaven, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43077]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the moon's fair image quaketh In the raging waves of ocean,  Whilst she, in the vault of heaven,   Moves with silent peaceful motion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.

Eccl. 12:6. When he understood it, he called for his friends, and told them of it. Then said he, I am going to my Father's; and though with great difficulty I have got hither, yet now I do not repent me of all the trouble I have been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who will now be my rewarder. When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the river-side, into which as he went, he said, "Death, where is thy sting?" And as he went down deeper, he said, "Grave, where is thy victory?" 1 Cor. 15:55. So he passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for him on the other side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man’s power of choice enables him to think like an angel or a devil, a king or a slave.
