As the Christian life is, above all things, a state of union with Christ, and of union of his followers with one another, love of the brethren is inseparable from love of God. Resentment toward any human being cannot exist in the same heart with love to God. The personal relationship to Christ can only be realized when one has "come to himself" as a member of His Body, the Christian fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wise sayings often fall on barren ground; but a kind word is never thrown away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23781]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wise sayings often fall on barren ground; but a kind word is never thrown away.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The truly generous is the truly wise, and he who loves not others, lives unblest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5726]]></link><description><![CDATA[The truly generous is the truly wise, and he who loves not others, lives unblest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever begins to be tranquil is gobbled up by something not tranquil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57064]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever begins to be tranquil is gobbled up by something not tranquil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always try to be smart.

It was wonderful to touch one of them and think, Perhaps the Apostle Paul or one of the martyrs touched this as they passed. But how much more wonderful is it to think that we have, for our own use, the very same sword our Lord used when the Devil attacked Him. [Brooke Foss] Westcott says "the Word of God" in Ephesians 6:17 means "a definite utterance of God". We know these "definite utterances" -- we have the same Book that He had, and we can do as He did. So let us learn the "definite utterances" that they may be ready in our minds; ready for use at the moment of need -- our sword which never grows dull and rusty, but is always keen and bright. So once more I say, let us not expect defeat but victory. Let us take fast hold and keep fast hold of our sword, and we shall win in any assault of the enemy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis not the food, but the content, That makes the table's merriment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13201]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis not the food, but the content, That makes the table's merriment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think the reason she's done so many of these films is because the '50s is such a rich era ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37206]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think the reason she's done so many of these films is because the '50s is such a rich era for describing the journey of a woman,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are dealing with the best-educated generation in history.
