They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshippers meeting together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship. Social religion is perfected when private religion is purified. The body becomes stronger as its members become healthier. The whole church of God gains when the members that compose it begin to seek a better and a higher life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There has been just enough activity on the big, new shiny aircraft front ... to keep both manufacturers feeling and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31733]]></link><description><![CDATA[There has been just enough activity on the big, new shiny aircraft front ... to keep both manufacturers feeling and talking very buoyantly about the future,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It began of nothing and in nothing it ends. [Lat., Et redit in nihilum quod fuit ante nihil.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3952]]></link><description><![CDATA[It began of nothing and in nothing it ends. [Lat., Et redit in nihilum quod fuit ante nihil.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Almost no one is foolish enough to imagine that he automatically deserves great success in any field of activity; yet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Almost no one is foolish enough to imagine that he automatically deserves great success in any field of activity; yet almost everyone believes that he automatically deserves success in marriage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first thing I've learned is to trust nobody. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65037]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first thing I've learned is to trust nobody.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65037</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52079]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The field is quite new, so its ultimate success at finding new drugs is still unknown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33420]]></link><description><![CDATA[The field is quite new, so its ultimate success at finding new drugs is still unknown.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33420</guid></item></channel></rss>
