He blotted out through death the sentence of death, that by a new creation of our race in Himself He might sweep away the penalty appointed by the former Law... For Scripture had foretold that He who is God should die; that the victory and triumph of them that trust in Him lay in the fact that He, who is immortal and cannot be overcome by death, was to die that mortals might gain eternity. (Continued tomorrow)   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 2, 2000 Feast of All Souls   In this calm assurance of safety did my soul gladly and hopefully take its rest, and feared so little the interruption of death, that death seemed only a name for eternal life. And the life of this present body was so far from seeming a burden or affliction that it was regarded as children regard their alphabets, sick men their draughts, shipwrecked sailors their swim, young men the training for their profession, future commanders their first campaign -- that is, as an endurable submission to present necessities, bearing the promise of a blissful immortality.   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 3, 2000 Feast of Richard Hooker, Priest, Anglican Apologist, Teacher, 1600 Commemoration of Martin of Porres, Dominican Friar, 1639   People make mistakes when they believe. They may even want something so badly that passion creates its own evidences. Reprehensible though these habits are, they nonetheless fall within the pale of man's general effort to conform the self to things as they are. But when a person acknowledges the deficiency of evidences and yet goes right on believing, he defends a position that is large with the elements of its own destruction. Any brand of inanity can be defended on such a principle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At Athens, wise men propose, and fools dispose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17671]]></link><description><![CDATA[At Athens, wise men propose, and fools dispose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who sings frightens away his ills. [Sp., Quien canta, sus males espanta.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56449]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who sings frightens away his ills. [Sp., Quien canta, sus males espanta.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diplomacy is the art of saying "Nice doggie!" till you can find a rock. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12318]]></link><description><![CDATA[Diplomacy is the art of saying "Nice doggie!" till you can find a rock.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Turning these jests out of service, let us talk in good earnest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51229]]></link><description><![CDATA[Turning these jests out of service, let us talk in good earnest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The New Deal began, like the Salvation Army, by promising to save humanity.
