If that is where it rests, it is an optimism which will suffer ultimate disillusionment. Romanticism will be transmuted into cynicism, as it has always been in the world's history. The faith of a Christian is something quite different from this optimism. It is trust in God, in a good God who created a good world, though the world is not now good; in a good God, powerful and good enough finally to destroy the evil that men do and redeem them of their sins. This kind of faith is not optimism. It does not, in fact, arise until optimism breaks down and men cease to trust in themselves that they are righteous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas! for the rarity Of Christian charity  Under the sun.   Oh! it was pitiful!    ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas! for the rarity Of Christian charity  Under the sun.   Oh! it was pitiful!    Near a whole city full,     Home had she none.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The US currency has come under pressure on speculation of a pause in the US monetary tightening cycle together with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41353]]></link><description><![CDATA[The US currency has come under pressure on speculation of a pause in the US monetary tightening cycle together with the increase in the US current account deficit, which the market usually shrugs off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have nothing to declare but my genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17296]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have nothing to declare but my genius.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You want to hear about insanity?

And that context, astounding even to bodily eyes is the heaven of stars and the incredible procession of the great galaxies. Doc Childre and Bruce Cryer, From Chaos to Coherence Science's view of intelligence itself has begun to change. Historically, "intelligence" has been defined simply as mental capacity. Some have even proposed that it is, therefore, fixed, finite, and genetically predetermined. Now it appears intelligence has other dimensions as well, physiologically and emotionally. We all have considerably more intelligence than we thought; we just have not learned to bring our capacity for intelligence into coherence. Martin Luther King, Jr. -W.

It was perfectly dry in spite of the fact that it had been immersed in water for centuries. The same is true of many people in the Western world. For centuries they have been surrounded by Christianity; they live immersed in the waters of its benefits. And yet it has not penetrated their hearts; they do not love it. The fault is not in Christianity, but in men's hearts, which have been hardened by materialism and intellectualism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now we sit through Shakespeare in order to recognize the quotations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52821]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now we sit through Shakespeare in order to recognize the quotations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We all were shocked.
