In the beginning, John the Baptist had taught his disciples to expect from Christ the baptism -- not of water only, as in his baptism -- but of the Spirit. Before His death, Jesus had sought to fill His disciples' minds with the expectation of this gift... And that Spirit had come in sensible power upon them some ten days after Jesus disappeared for the last time from their eyes... And this Spirit was the Spirit of God, but also, and therefore, the Spirit of Jesus. Jesus was not then merely a past example, or a remote Lord, but an inward presence and power. A mere example in past history becomes in experience a feebler and feebler power... But the example of Jesus was something much more than a memory. For He who had taught them in the past how to live was alive in the heavenly places and was working within them by His Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ingratitude! thou marble-hearted fiend, More hideous when thou show'st thee in a child  Than the sea-monster. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ingratitude! thou marble-hearted fiend, More hideous when thou show'st thee in a child  Than the sea-monster.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every great work of art has two faces, one toward its own time and one toward the future, toward eternity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3330]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every great work of art has two faces, one toward its own time and one toward the future, toward eternity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Such a house broke? So noble a master fall'n; all gone, and not  One friend to take his fortune ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42820]]></link><description><![CDATA[Such a house broke? So noble a master fall'n; all gone, and not  One friend to take his fortune by the arm   And go along with him?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Hilda, Abbess of Whitby, 680 Commemoration of Elizabeth, Princess of Hungary, Philanthropist, 1231 Commemoration of Mechtild, Bèguine of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Hilda, Abbess of Whitby, 680 Commemoration of Elizabeth, Princess of Hungary, Philanthropist, 1231 Commemoration of Mechtild, Bèguine of Magdeburg, Mystic, Prophet, 1280   Where, then, does happiness lie? In forgetfulness, not indulgence, of the self. In escape from sensual appetites, not in their satisfaction We live in a dark, self-enclosed prison, which is all we see or know if our glance is fixed ever downward. To lift it upward, becoming aware of the wide, luminous universe outside -- this alone is happiness. At its highest level, such happiness is the ecstasy that mystics have inadequately described At more humdrum levels, it is human love; the delights and beauties of our dear earth, its colors and shapes and sounds; the enchantment of understanding and laughing, and all other exercise of such faculties as we possess; the marvel of the meaning of everything, fitfully glimpsed, inadequately expounded, but ever present.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[(Parents) have a real kind of deep-seated opinion that the quality of education is not as high, whether the stories ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38141]]></link><description><![CDATA[(Parents) have a real kind of deep-seated opinion that the quality of education is not as high, whether the stories are valid or invalid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Financial sense is knowing that certain men will promise to do certain things, and fail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Financial sense is knowing that certain men will promise to do certain things, and fail.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My whole thing is when I get my opportunity, I need to take advantage of it.
