We also are not worrying about immortality, hardly believe in it, or at least are not sure; we, too, have limited ourselves to this dust-speck of time, leaving unclaimed the vast inheritance beyond of which Christ told us; we, too, are putting all our zeal and passion and enthusiasm into things of this earth here, quite sure that that is the only road to progress, and that this everlasting chatter about the soul is quite beside the point. And they are all so earnest and so certain, work so hard, are animated often by such lofty motives, are so sure that there is really no manner of need for Christ: that given this, and this, and this, each of them pushing forward his particular panacea -- the world will manage very well; that to talk about Christ, and changing people's hearts, and making us new creatures, is merely to lose precious time and wander from the practical into vague day-dreaming of which nothing comes. And year by year their voices grow a little harder, and they eye Christ more and more askance, feel sourly that He is a bit of a nuisance and a stumbling-block to progress, keeping people quiet who should not be quiet, lulling them with these dim, immaterial, fantastic, spiritual hopes of His which they think have no body, and can not have. Once more the whisper grows, "Were He not far better away?" Meantime we can ignore Him, they say; and they do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One can be very happy without demanding that others agree with them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1928]]></link><description><![CDATA[One can be very happy without demanding that others agree with them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kyle is more mechanical, and Kevin is a smoother player.

He has all the shots. Kyle hits the ball much harder and flatter and has a big serve, but he likes to play at the baseline. Kevin has the more all-around game and likes to go to the net, but he's not nearly as powerful as Kyle. They don't look like they started at the same academy, which in a sense is good. Kids don't all need to be taught the same way because they have different strengths.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man drives, but the Creator holds the reins ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13020]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man drives, but the Creator holds the reins]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Abortion is a skillfully marketed product sold to women at a crisis time in their life.

My gracious Master and my God,   Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad   The honours of thy name. Jesus! the name that charms our fears,   That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears,   'Tis life, and health, and peace. He breaks the power of cancelled sin,   He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean,   His blood availed for me. He speaks, and, listening to his voice,   New life the dead receive, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,   The humble poor believe. Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,   Your loosened tongues employ; Ye blind, behold your Saviour come,   And leap, ye lame, for joy. Look unto him, ye nations, own   Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone,   Be justified by grace. See all your sins on Jesus laid:   The Lamb of God was slain, His soul was once an offering made   For every soul of man. Awake from guilty nature's sleep,   And Christ shall give you light, Cast all your sins into the deep,   And wash you purest white. With me, your chief, ye then shall know,   Shall feel your sins forgiven; Anticipate your heaven below,   And own that love is heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Upon the cunning loom of thought We weave our fancies, so and so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59189]]></link><description><![CDATA[Upon the cunning loom of thought We weave our fancies, so and so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Theatergoing is a communal act, movie going a solitary one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59055]]></link><description><![CDATA[Theatergoing is a communal act, movie going a solitary one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is still not as fast as today's silicon chips, but we can make it orders of magnitude better.
