The institution is static, whereas its parent movement has been dynamic; it confines men within its limits, while the movement had liberated them from the bondage of institutions; it looks to the past, [although] the movement had pointed forward. Though in content the institution resembles the dynamic epoch whence it proceeded, in spirit it is like the [state] before the revolution. So the Christian church, after the early period, often seemed more closely related in attitude to the Jewish synagogue and the Roman state than to the age of Christ and his apostles; its creed was often more like a system of philosophy than like the living gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So full of artless jealousy is guilt, It spills itself in fearing to be spilt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23199]]></link><description><![CDATA[So full of artless jealousy is guilt, It spills itself in fearing to be spilt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men that are ruined, are ruined on the side of their natural propensities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5639]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men that are ruined, are ruined on the side of their natural propensities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I used to watch the world as if it was a performance and I would realize that certain things that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28708]]></link><description><![CDATA[I used to watch the world as if it was a performance and I would realize that certain things that people did moved me, and certain things didn't move me, and I tried to analyze, even at that age, six and seven and eight, why I was moved by certain things they did.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28708</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Failure comes only when we forget our ideals and objectives and principles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44746]]></link><description><![CDATA[Failure comes only when we forget our ideals and objectives and principles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The studio, a room to which the artist consigns himself for life, is naturally important, not only as workplace, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3356]]></link><description><![CDATA[The studio, a room to which the artist consigns himself for life, is naturally important, not only as workplace, but as a source of inspiration.

It cannot make itself the slave of men, not even though the men are Peter and Paul and John; no, not even though it were the Son of Man Himself. It resents dictation, not willfully nor wantonly, but because it must; and it resents it all the more when it claims to be inspired. If, therefore, the Atonement can only be received by those who are prepared from the threshold to acknowledge the inspiration and the consequent authority of Scripture, it can never be received by modern men at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we're going to continue this cold pattern into March.
