"Now they are all on their knees," An elder said as we sat in a flock By the embers in herath side ease. We pictured the meek mild creatures where They dwelt in their strawy pen, Nor did it occur to one of us there To doubt they were kneeling then. So fair a fancy few would weave In these years! yet, I feel If someone said on Christmas Eve, "Come; see the oxen kneel, In the lonely barton by yonder coomb Our childhood used to know," I should go with him in the gloom, Hoping it might be so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like to come up with new formats that are tailor-made for each market.

Dr. (Thomas) Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realized that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in. The modern mind assumes what Dr. Chalmers painfully discovered. An atonement that does not regenerate, it truly holds, is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Subtract from the great man all that he owes to opportunity, all that he owes to chance, and all that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45089]]></link><description><![CDATA[Subtract from the great man all that he owes to opportunity, all that he owes to chance, and all that he gained by the wisdom of his friends and the folly of his enemies, and the giant will often be seen to be a pygmy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I knew as well as anybody what the endowment does for artists because I had been someone it had supported ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37185]]></link><description><![CDATA[I knew as well as anybody what the endowment does for artists because I had been someone it had supported through not-for-profit theater.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a short series of verse on Christ:  Hard it is, very hard, To travel up the slow and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7963]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series of verse on Christ:  Hard it is, very hard, To travel up the slow and stony road To Calvary, to redeem mankind; far better To make but one resplendent miracle, Lean through the cloud, lift the right hand of power And with a sudden lightning smite the world perfect.

To say that we must wait for the other world, to know the mind of Him who came to this world to give Himself to us, seems to me the foolishness of a worldly and lazy spirit. The Son of God is the teacher of men, giving to them of His Spirit -- that Spirit which manifests the deep things of God, being to a man the mind of Christ.
