And that context, astounding even to bodily eyes is the heaven of stars and the incredible procession of the great galaxies. Doc Childre and Bruce Cryer, From Chaos to Coherence Science's view of intelligence itself has begun to change. Historically, "intelligence" has been defined simply as mental capacity. Some have even proposed that it is, therefore, fixed, finite, and genetically predetermined. Now it appears intelligence has other dimensions as well, physiologically and emotionally. We all have considerably more intelligence than we thought; we just have not learned to bring our capacity for intelligence into coherence. Martin Luther King, Jr. -W.

But -- I know not well whence it comes to pass -- the things spoken do not abide nor incorporate in our minds. They please and refresh for a little while, like a shower of rain in a dry season, that soaketh not unto the roots of things; the power of them doth not enter into us. Is it not from hence, that their notions of future things are not educed out of the experience which we have of the beginnings of them in this world? Yea, the soul is disturbed, not edified, in all contemplations of future glory, where things are proposed to it whereof in this life it hath neither foretaste, sense, experience, nor evidence. No man ought to look for anything in heaven, but what one way or other he hath some experience of in this life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of William Tyndale, Translator of the Scriptures, Martyr, 1536  Every man is a missionary, now and forever, for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6576]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of William Tyndale, Translator of the Scriptures, Martyr, 1536  Every man is a missionary, now and forever, for good or for evil, whether he intends or designs it or not.

He allowed himself (God allowed him) to be accounted sin by the Law. He refused to do what orthodox Jews of his day thought God had commanded them to do, (i.e.) seek to gain credit with God by keeping the Law. He lived by faith, not Law, and therefore repudiated the Law and the path of self-justification.... He stripped himself even of that claim to moral goodness which would have distinguished him from sinners. Short of becoming a sinner (and Paul shows that this idea is repudiated), how could God come closer to us sinners?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are told never to cross a bridge until we come to it, but this world is owned by men ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21526]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are told never to cross a bridge until we come to it, but this world is owned by men who have 'crossed bridges' in their imagination far ahead of the crowd.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To gain that which is worth having, it may be necessary to lose everything else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53281]]></link><description><![CDATA[To gain that which is worth having, it may be necessary to lose everything else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to the eyes of men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10472]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to the eyes of men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right as a trivet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Right as a trivet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All powerful is the rule of fashion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51584]]></link><description><![CDATA[All powerful is the rule of fashion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wish I could say that I am better this week than I was last week, but every day seems ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40064]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wish I could say that I am better this week than I was last week, but every day seems to be getting a little bit more difficult.
