It has been said... truly that the Church exists for those outside of itself. The Church must never be in any sense a little huddle of pious people, shutting their doors against the world, lost in prayer and praise, connoisseurs of preaching and liturgy, busy mutually congratulating themselves on the excellence of their Christian experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human history is the sad result of each one looking out for himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human history is the sad result of each one looking out for himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tease her all the time because she'll need to take an afternoon off here and there to sing at ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31450]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tease her all the time because she'll need to take an afternoon off here and there to sing at someone's funeral.

And until we understand the Gospel, the good news about our brother-king -- until we understand Him, until we have His Spirit, promised so freely to them that ask it -- all the Epistles, the words of men who were full of Him, and wrote out of that fullness, who loved Him so utterly that by that very love they were lifted into the air of pure reason and right, and would die for Him, without two thoughts about it, in the very simplicity of no choice -- the Letters, I say, of such men are to us a sealed book. Until we love the Lord so as to do what He tells us, we have no right to an opinion about what one of those men meant; for all they wrote is about things beyond us. The simplest woman who tries not to judge her neighbor, or not to be anxious for the morrow, will better know what is best to know, than the best-read bishop without that one simple outgoing of his highest nature in the effort to do the will of Him who thus spoke.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man may be born, but in order to be born he must first die, and in order to die ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5974]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man may be born, but in order to be born he must first die, and in order to die he must first awake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is like the telephone problem--no one wants to have the first one.

Christ, the Spirit of Christ, interpenetrating ours, sweetens, purifies, transforms all. This can only eradicate what is wrong, renovate and regenerate, and rehabilitate the inner man. Will-power does not change men. Time does not change men. Christ does. Therefore "Let that mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's going to be a good game.
