The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is strange so great a statesman should Be so sublime a poet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57837]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is strange so great a statesman should Be so sublime a poet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are invited to drink at any man's house more than you think is wholesome, you may say "you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12997]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are invited to drink at any man's house more than you think is wholesome, you may say "you wish you could, but so little makes you both drunk and sick; that you should only be bad company by doing so."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life.

When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This change in our name better reflects who we are and where we are going. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33004]]></link><description><![CDATA[This change in our name better reflects who we are and where we are going.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44816]]></link><description><![CDATA[The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is an imperceptible atom always trying to become one with God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is an imperceptible atom always trying to become one with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brotherhood is the very price and condition of man's survival. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4944]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brotherhood is the very price and condition of man's survival.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65185]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right.

Now I ask for God. Supposing there is a tree full of fruits -- you will have to go and buy or beg the fruits from the owner of the tree. Every day you would have to go for one or two fruits. But if you can make the tree your own property, then all the fruits will be your own. In the same way, if God is your own, then all things in Heaven and on earth will be your own, because He is your Father and is everything to you; otherwise you will have to go and ask like a beggar for certain things. When they are used up, you will have to ask again. So ask not for gifts but for the Giver of Gifts: not for life but for the Giver of Life -- then life and the things needed for life will be added unto you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who worse than a physician Would this report become?

Our hearts be pure from evil, That we may see aright The Lord in rays eternal Of resurrection light, And, list'ning to His accents, May hear, so calm and plain His own "All hail!" and, hearing, May raise the victor strain.
