For one thing, it implies that we have no spiritual ambition, else we should not be satisfied with such poor lives; that we cannot have thought out the fact of Jesus Christ, and how immeasurably He has raised the standard. Will you hang your wretched daubs beside the works of Titian and Michelangelo and not be shamed by the enormous contrast -- stand back and say, with a satisfied smirk, "That is pretty good, you know!"? And can you live face to face with Jesus Christ, and be content with what you are?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was going to write myself in, but I was afraid I'd get shot. (on his decision not to vote) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57629]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was going to write myself in, but I was afraid I'd get shot. (on his decision not to vote)]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The philosophy exam was a piece of cake -- which was a bit of a surprise, actually, because I was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25404]]></link><description><![CDATA[The philosophy exam was a piece of cake -- which was a bit of a surprise, actually, because I was expecting some questions on a sheet of paper.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The place where optimism most flourishes is the lunatic asylum. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27670]]></link><description><![CDATA[The place where optimism most flourishes is the lunatic asylum.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart-sick faintness of the hope delayed! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51104]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart-sick faintness of the hope delayed!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sectarianism is limitation.

Some truth taught in Scripture, some part of the divine revelation, is apprehended, and the heart responds to it and accepts it. As it is dwelt upon, expounded, defended; its power and beauty increasingly influence those affected by it. Another side of truth, another view of revelation, also contained in Scripture, seems to weaken, even to contradict, the truth that has been found to be so effectual. and in jealous fear for the doctrine accepted and taught, the balancing truth is minimized, explained away, and even denied. So on a portion of revelation, on a part of the Word, a sect is founded, good and useful because it preaches and practices Divine truth, but limited and unbalanced because it does not see all truth, nor frankly accept the whole of Scripture. Its members are not only deprived of the full use of all Scripture, but are cut off from the fellowship of many saints, who are less limited than they, or limited in another direction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's nothing like a Catholic wedding to make you wish life had a fast forward button. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2108]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's nothing like a Catholic wedding to make you wish life had a fast forward button.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have the courage of my opinions, but I have not the temerity to give a political blank cheque to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57842]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have the courage of my opinions, but I have not the temerity to give a political blank cheque to Lord Salisbury.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Youth condemns; maturity condones. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26577]]></link><description><![CDATA[Youth condemns; maturity condones.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All wonder is the effect of novelty on ignorance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44686]]></link><description><![CDATA[All wonder is the effect of novelty on ignorance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some remedies are worse than the diseases. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12505]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some remedies are worse than the diseases.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You'll get a check, ...
