Let Jones worship the sun or moon -- anything rather than the Inner Light; let Jones worship cats or crocodiles, if he can find any in his street, but not the god within. Christianity came into the world firstly in order to assert with violence that a man had not only to look inwards, but to look outwards, to behold with astonishment and enthusiasm a divine company and a divine captain. The only fun of being a Christian was that a man was not left alone with the Inner Light, but definitely recognized an outer light, fair as the sun, clear as the moon, terrible as an army with banners.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We believe it is good government to enact a law funding this research, rather than having to amend the Florida ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30906]]></link><description><![CDATA[We believe it is good government to enact a law funding this research, rather than having to amend the Florida Constitution to do so, ...

Why spill this golden splendor out across The western hills, and light the silver lamp Of eve? Why give me eyes to see, and soul To love so strong and deep? Then, with a pang This brightness stabs me through, and wakes within Rebellious voice to cry against all death? Why set this hunger for eternity To gnaw my heartstrings through, if death ends all? If death ends all, then evil must be good, Wrong must be right, and beauty ugliness.  God is a Judas who betrays His Son, And with a kiss, damns all the world to hell, -- If Christ rose not again.   ... Unknown soldier, killed in World War I  August 9, 2002 Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921 Concluding a short series of verse on Christ: With this ambiguous earth his dealings have been told us. These abide:    The signal to a maid, the human birth,    The lesson, and the young Man crucified. But not a star of all the innumerable host of stars has heard    How he administered this terrestrial ball.    Our race has kept their Lord's entrusted Word. Of his earth-visiting feet none knows the secret, cherished, perilous,    The terrible, shamefast, frightened, whispered, sweet,    Heart-shattering secret of his way with us. No planet knows that this, our wayside planet, carrying land and wave,    Love and life multiplied, and pain and bliss,    Bears, as its chief treasure, one forsaken grave. Nor, in our little day, may his devices with the heavens be guessed,    His pilgrimage to thread the Milky Way    Or his bestowal there be manifest. But in the eternities, doubtless we shall compare    Together, hear a million alien Gospels, in what guise    He trod the Pleiades, the Lyre, and the Bear. O, be prepared, my soul! To read the inconceivable, to scan    The million forms of God those stars unroll    When, in our turn, we show to them a Man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A party of order or stability, and a party of progress or reform, are both necessary elements of a healthy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57808]]></link><description><![CDATA[A party of order or stability, and a party of progress or reform, are both necessary elements of a healthy state of political life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57808</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is simple.

For my part, I must not only say, but plead whilst I live in this world, and leave this testimony to the present and future ages, if these papers see the light and do survive, that if I have ever seen any thing in the ways and worship of God wherein the power of religion or godliness hath been expressed, any thing that hath represented the holiness of the gospel and the Author of it, any thing that hath looked like a preludium unto the everlasting Sabbath and rest with God, which we aim through grace to come unto, it hath been there and with them where and amongst whom the Lord's day hath been had in highest esteem, and a strict observation of it attended unto, as an ordinance of our Lord Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adoption is not about finding children for families, it's about finding families for children ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/630]]></link><description><![CDATA[Adoption is not about finding children for families, it's about finding families for children]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45080]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given him.
