What we can see is that both an incarnation and a virginal conception were thoroughly appropriate to the needs and circumstances of the case and were more "natural", in the sense of more appropriate, than the alternatives... In practice, denial of the virginal conception or inability to see its relevance almost always goes with an inadequate understanding of the Incarnation and of the Christian religion in general.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I said to the brown, brown thrush: "Hush, hush!  Through the wood's full strains I hear   Thy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59254]]></link><description><![CDATA[I said to the brown, brown thrush: "Hush, hush!  Through the wood's full strains I hear   Thy monotone deep and clear,    Like a sound amid sounds most fine."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a narrow circle the mind contracts. Man grows with his expanded needs.  [Ger., Im engen Kreis verengert sich ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18398]]></link><description><![CDATA[In a narrow circle the mind contracts. Man grows with his expanded needs.  [Ger., Im engen Kreis verengert sich der Sinn.   Es wachst der Mensch mit seinen grossern Zwecken.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How oft the sight of means to do ill deeds Makes ill deeds done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51348]]></link><description><![CDATA[How oft the sight of means to do ill deeds Makes ill deeds done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51348</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65298]]></link><description><![CDATA[The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can you believe their backgrounds? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can you believe their backgrounds?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not a risky team and we were just a little too risky tonight.

He was willing to suffer and to be despised; do you dare to complain of anything? He had enemies and defamers; do you want everyone to be your friend, your benefactor? How can your patience be rewarded if no adversity tests it? How can you be a friend of Christ if you are not willing to suffer any hardship? Suffer with Christ and for Christ if you wish to reign with Him.  Had you but once entered into perfect communion with Jesus or tasted a little of His ardent love, you would care nothing at all for your own comfort or discomfort but would rejoice in the reproach you suffer; for love of Him makes a man despise himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Value is what people are willing to pay for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21382]]></link><description><![CDATA[Value is what people are willing to pay for it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24596]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace is an interlude during war. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61214]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace is an interlude during war.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[right before you came, I almost completely tipped over like a board -- 'Timber!' ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31437]]></link><description><![CDATA[right before you came, I almost completely tipped over like a board -- 'Timber!']]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lose/Win people bury a lot of feelings.

And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now spring returns; but not to me returns The vernal joy my better years have known;  Dim in my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57778]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now spring returns; but not to me returns The vernal joy my better years have known;  Dim in my breast life's dying taper burns,   And all the joys of life with health have flown.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity is a two-edged virtue for an artist - it nourishes his imagination but has a fatal effect on his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity is a two-edged virtue for an artist - it nourishes his imagination but has a fatal effect on his routine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Homosexuality, is regarded as shameful by barbarians and by those who live under despotic governments just as philosophy is regarded ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19654]]></link><description><![CDATA[Homosexuality, is regarded as shameful by barbarians and by those who live under despotic governments just as philosophy is regarded as shameful by them, because it is apparently not in the interest of such rulers to have great ideas engendered in their subjects, or powerful friendships or passionate love-all of which homosexuality is particularly apt to produce."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marcus Banks had three years here, to play, and he had three coaches (Jim O'Brien, John Carroll, Doc Rivers) that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32637]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marcus Banks had three years here, to play, and he had three coaches (Jim O'Brien, John Carroll, Doc Rivers) that weren't real excited about him.
