When, unarmed and defenseless, He said to the Roman power, "My Kingdom is not of this world," He spoke the word of inauguration. Over the kingdom of the elemental forces, over the kingdom of the animal, over the kingdom of the intellect, He beheld rising, with Himself as prophet and embodiment, that kingdom of the spiritual whose forces should be those of purity and sacrifice, love and trust, obedience and service. It is the last of the kingdoms because it is the highest; it will be the most enduring for there is nothing that can take its place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5481]]></link><description><![CDATA[The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why?

This fact ought not to be taken to imply, however, that such an effort is unjustifiable and necessarily useless. The distinctiveness of the Biblical approach is its immediacy. The theistic proofs for God's existence constitute a laborious, painstaking, and patient justification of theism. They attempt to set forth in rational argument what the soul grasps intuitively. But for the Bible, the deepest proof of God's existence is just life itself. The knowledge of God and man's knowledge of himself are closely intertwined. If only God could be written off neatly and cleanly, how simple things would be! But the hound of heaven pads after us all. He does not let us go. There is no escaping him...; when least expected, he closes in. The explanation for this is man's creation in the image of God. His identity is known theologically, in relation to the God who as a man in his true significance cannot survive permanently in isolation from his Maker. Without God, man is the chance product of unthinking fate, and so of little worth. The current loss of identity and the emergence of the faceless man in today's culture are testimony to the effects of losing our God. The knowledge of God is given in the same movement in which we know ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bruce has been a big supporter of the network from the beginning, and he's always been great to work with, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35278]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bruce has been a big supporter of the network from the beginning, and he's always been great to work with,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61668]]></link><description><![CDATA[Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oft did I wonder why the setting sun Should look upon us with a blushing face:  Is't not for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oft did I wonder why the setting sun Should look upon us with a blushing face:  Is't not for shame of what he hath seen done,   Whilst in our hemisphere he ran his race?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever longs for paradise forgets his desires. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36719]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever longs for paradise forgets his desires.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is amazing at how small a price may the wedding ring be placed upon a worthless hand; but, by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53284]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is amazing at how small a price may the wedding ring be placed upon a worthless hand; but, by the beauty of our law, what heaps of gold are indispensable to take it off!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cruelty is a part of nature, at least of human nature, but it is the one thing that seems unnatural ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cruelty is a part of nature, at least of human nature, but it is the one thing that seems unnatural to us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Compound for sins they are inclin'd to, By damning those they have no mind to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56377]]></link><description><![CDATA[Compound for sins they are inclin'd to, By damning those they have no mind to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, sorrow! Why dost borrow  Heart's lightness from the merriment of May? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57255]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, sorrow! Why dost borrow  Heart's lightness from the merriment of May?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a beautiful trait in the lover's character, that they think no evil of the object loved. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64908]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a beautiful trait in the lover's character, that they think no evil of the object loved.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ideas are the root of creation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10565]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ideas are the root of creation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is impossible to underrate human intelligence -- beginning with one's own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36457]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is impossible to underrate human intelligence -- beginning with one's own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65435]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.rn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She also won the gold medal in the Super Quiz and essay components.
