Nothing else in the world demonstrates how real is God's love to the sinful, and how real the sin of the world is to God. And the love which comes to us through such an expression, bearing sin in all its reality, yet loving us through and beyond it, is the only love which at once forgives and regenerates the soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Idolatry is in a man's own thought, not in the opinion of another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53646]]></link><description><![CDATA[Idolatry is in a man's own thought, not in the opinion of another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an event that is growing, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31942]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is an event that is growing,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And out of darkness came the hands That reach thro' nature, moulding men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11090]]></link><description><![CDATA[And out of darkness came the hands That reach thro' nature, moulding men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd rather be rich than stupid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11751]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'd rather be rich than stupid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Mark the Evangelist  The reason why we can hope to find God is that He is here, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6884]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Mark the Evangelist  The reason why we can hope to find God is that He is here, engaged all the time in finding us. Every pulse of love is a tendril that draws us in His direction. Every verification of truth links the finite mind up into a Foundational Mind that undergirds us. Every deed of good will points toward a consummate Goodness which fulfills all our tiny adventures in faith. We can find Him because in Him we live and move and have our being.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is there that you enter upon so favorably as not to repent of the undertaking and the accomplishment of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23537]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is there that you enter upon so favorably as not to repent of the undertaking and the accomplishment of your wish? [Lat., Quid tam dextro pede concipis ut te conatus non poeniteat votique peracti?]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be polite; write diplomatically; even in a declaration of war one observes the rules of politeness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12314]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be polite; write diplomatically; even in a declaration of war one observes the rules of politeness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On the stage he was natural, simple, affecting 'Twas only that when he was off, he was acting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/423]]></link><description><![CDATA[On the stage he was natural, simple, affecting 'Twas only that when he was off, he was acting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/423</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is one of the destinies of speech...
