So let us not rest all our hopes on parchment and on paper, let us strive to build peace, a desire for peace, a willingness to work for peace in the hearts and minds of all of our people.

The whole transaction of religious conversion has been made mechanical and spiritless. Faith may now be exercised without a jar to the moral life and without embarrassment to the Adamic ego. Christ may be "received" without creating any special love for Him in the soul of the receiver. The man is "saved", but he is not hungry or thirsty after God. In fact, he is specifically taught to be satisfied and encouraged to be content with little. The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ceaseless rain is falling fast, And yonder gilded vane,  Immovable for three days past,   Points to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52937]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ceaseless rain is falling fast, And yonder gilded vane,  Immovable for three days past,   Points to the misty main.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The well-being of America's children is probably better than it ever has been. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34095]]></link><description><![CDATA[The well-being of America's children is probably better than it ever has been.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Burke said there were Three Estates in Parliament; but, in the Reporter's gallery yonder, there sat a fourth estate more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23332]]></link><description><![CDATA[Burke said there were Three Estates in Parliament; but, in the Reporter's gallery yonder, there sat a fourth estate more important far than they all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The very minute a thought is threatened with publicity it seems to shrink towards mediocrity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26774]]></link><description><![CDATA[The very minute a thought is threatened with publicity it seems to shrink towards mediocrity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26774</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The price of greatness is responsibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18273]]></link><description><![CDATA[The price of greatness is responsibility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For 't is always fair weather When good fellows get together  With a stein on the table and a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19861]]></link><description><![CDATA[For 't is always fair weather When good fellows get together  With a stein on the table and a good song ringing clear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64535]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a panel feels that a grant is worthy and they know the content of the work of art in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37186]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a panel feels that a grant is worthy and they know the content of the work of art in question, we at the endowment will be prepared to defend it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066   The trouble with nearly everybody who prays is that he says "Amen" ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7889]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066   The trouble with nearly everybody who prays is that he says "Amen" and runs away before God has a chance to reply.
