Hence it was firmly seated first on the great lines of communication across the empire, leading from its origin in Jerusalem to its imperial center in Rome. It had already struck root in Rome within little more than twenty years after the Crucifixion, and it had become really strong in the great city about thirty years after the Apostles began to look round and out from Jerusalem. This marvelous development was possible only because the seed of the new thought floated free on the main currents of communication, which were ever sweeping back and forward between the heart of the Empire and its outlying members. Paul, who mainly directed the great movement, threw himself boldly and confidently into the life of the time; he took the Empire as it was, accepted its political conformation and arrangement, and sought only to touch the spiritual and moral life of the people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20108]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A ship in harbor is safe, but that's not why ships arebuilt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22780]]></link><description><![CDATA[A ship in harbor is safe, but that's not why ships arebuilt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O villain, thou hast stol'n both mine office and my name! The one ne'er got me credit, the other mickle ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59133]]></link><description><![CDATA[O villain, thou hast stol'n both mine office and my name! The one ne'er got me credit, the other mickle blame.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We twa hae run about the braes, And pu'd the gowans fine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16761]]></link><description><![CDATA[We twa hae run about the braes, And pu'd the gowans fine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Doubtless the pleasure is as great Of being cheated as to cheat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46693]]></link><description><![CDATA[Doubtless the pleasure is as great Of being cheated as to cheat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No object is mysterious.

And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are searching for the Holocaust, you will find the real Holocaust in Palestine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41299]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are searching for the Holocaust, you will find the real Holocaust in Palestine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41299</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If someone selected for a regular room then gets an endowed room, someone may be pulled up from the wait ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37742]]></link><description><![CDATA[If someone selected for a regular room then gets an endowed room, someone may be pulled up from the wait list.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe nothing and be on your guard against everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44653]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe nothing and be on your guard against everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Persecution is not an original feature in any religion;
