It can happen to anyone who is prepared to abandon proof-texts and a closed attitude of mind, and allow not merely the stories but the quality of the Figure Who exists behind the stories to meet him afresh. Neat snippets of a few verses are of course useful in their way, but the overall sweep and much of the significance of the Gospel narratives are lost to us unless we are prepared to read the Gospels through, not once but several times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the court didn't think this (Texas) was materially different from the Pennsylvania case, they wouldn't have taken it up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42137]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the court didn't think this (Texas) was materially different from the Pennsylvania case, they wouldn't have taken it up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We believe that his statement was credible, and we at this point do not suspect that Jones was involved in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33714]]></link><description><![CDATA[We believe that his statement was credible, and we at this point do not suspect that Jones was involved in the firing of the shots.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They screwed us up one year, and we want to turn it back at them whenever we can. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30868]]></link><description><![CDATA[They screwed us up one year, and we want to turn it back at them whenever we can.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to give a man credit, put it in writing.

He has taken a cheerful view of the prospects of the race and of the future of human history, staying his soul upon the promise of further "evolution" of the human individual, the continuous upward progress of civilization, or perhaps the confident expectation of a completely revolutionized order of society -- a communist Utopia beyond the class struggle or something else of that same general kind. Where such hopes remain unchastened by the cold touch of reality, there is little prospect of the Christian Gospel recommending itself to men's minds, and any wordy defense of it is likely to be quite useless.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in the bus in Montgomery, she'd still be standing. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27245]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in the bus in Montgomery, she'd still be standing. -Mary Frances Berry.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love to play for audiences that are simply made of people rather than so-called special people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38796]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love to play for audiences that are simply made of people rather than so-called special people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We don't negotiate the deal.
