We also are not worrying about immortality, hardly believe in it, or at least are not sure; we, too, have limited ourselves to this dust-speck of time, leaving unclaimed the vast inheritance beyond of which Christ told us; we, too, are putting all our zeal and passion and enthusiasm into things of this earth here, quite sure that that is the only road to progress, and that this everlasting chatter about the soul is quite beside the point. And they are all so earnest and so certain, work so hard, are animated often by such lofty motives, are so sure that there is really no manner of need for Christ: that given this, and this, and this, each of them pushing forward his particular panacea -- the world will manage very well; that to talk about Christ, and changing people's hearts, and making us new creatures, is merely to lose precious time and wander from the practical into vague day-dreaming of which nothing comes. And year by year their voices grow a little harder, and they eye Christ more and more askance, feel sourly that He is a bit of a nuisance and a stumbling-block to progress, keeping people quiet who should not be quiet, lulling them with these dim, immaterial, fantastic, spiritual hopes of His which they think have no body, and can not have. Once more the whisper grows, "Were He not far better away?" Meantime we can ignore Him, they say; and they do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the Sultan Shah-Zaman Goes to the city Ispahan,  Even before he gets so far   As the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13154]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the Sultan Shah-Zaman Goes to the city Ispahan,  Even before he gets so far   As the place where the clustered palm-trees are,    At the last of the thirty palace-gates     The pet of the harem, Rose-in-Bloom,      Orders a feast in his favorite room--       Glittering square of colored ice,        Sweetened with syrup, tinctured with spice,         Creams, and cordials, and sugared dates,          Syrian apples, Othmanee quinces,           Limes and citrons and apricots,            And wines that are known to Eastern princes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13154</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45173]]></link><description><![CDATA[For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cosmic upheaval is not so moving as a little child pondering the death of a sparrow in the corner of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6003]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cosmic upheaval is not so moving as a little child pondering the death of a sparrow in the corner of a barn. -Tom Savage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The tournament returns to the same venue this morning for the 2005 state tournament, but this time the elements are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28796]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The tournament returns to the same venue this morning for the 2005 state tournament, but this time the elements are forecasted to be more conducive to scoring.] The weather is supposed to be great, ...

It can only be combined with the vocation of a pioneer missionary of the classic type if matrimony is felt to be spiritually neutral, irrelevant to God's calling. Marriage can be irrelevant only if we believe that the body -- matter -- is neutral, irrelevant, or evil. Man can not believe that and believe the Christian faith. God made matter, and was incarnate in it: the comparison of the relation of husband and wife to that between Christ and the Church naturally follows. But this conclusion is not always drawn, for orthodox Christians are often prone to speak and behave as if the Lord... became not flesh but spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64042]]></link><description><![CDATA[To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nation of monkeys with the throat of parrots. [Fr., Une natione de singes a larynx de parroquets.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16623]]></link><description><![CDATA[A nation of monkeys with the throat of parrots. [Fr., Une natione de singes a larynx de parroquets.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tried that double axel too cautiously.

And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be kind to unkind people - they need it the most ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be kind to unkind people - they need it the most]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take pleasure in your dreams; relish your principles and drape your purest feelings on the heart of a precious lover. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66302]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take pleasure in your dreams; relish your principles and drape your purest feelings on the heart of a precious lover.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A spike in oil weighs on equities, and higher-risk stocks such as technology are the ones to get hit first. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31966]]></link><description><![CDATA[A spike in oil weighs on equities, and higher-risk stocks such as technology are the ones to get hit first.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31966</guid></item></channel></rss>
