The Stoics tried the hopeless little game of denying its objective reality, or of declaring it a good in itself (which it never is); and the Pessimists attempted to revel in it, as a food to their melancholy, and as something that can no more be transformed than it can be avoided or explained. But Christ came, and He did not really explain it; He did far more: He met it, willed it, transformed it; and He taught us to do all this -- or, rather, He Himself does it within us, if we do not hinder the all-healing hands.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lord, what fools these mortals be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16393]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lord, what fools these mortals be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Rolle of Hampole, Writer, Hermit, Mystic, 1349  We may suffer the sins of our brother; we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8575]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Rolle of Hampole, Writer, Hermit, Mystic, 1349  We may suffer the sins of our brother; we do not need to judge. This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27723]]></link><description><![CDATA[The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His tongue is now a stringless instrument; Words, life, and all, old Lancaster hath spent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56470]]></link><description><![CDATA[His tongue is now a stringless instrument; Words, life, and all, old Lancaster hath spent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a very common story.
