In such a state, humility is the virtue of men, and their only defense; to walk humbly with God, never doubting, whatever befall, that His will is good, and that His law is right.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I come here this time as the special envoy of the secretary general on UN reform only, not as someone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28928]]></link><description><![CDATA[I come here this time as the special envoy of the secretary general on UN reform only, not as someone who is entrusted with the task of talking about the situation in Myanmar.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Creatures whose mainspring is curiosity enjoy the accumulating of facts far more than the pausing at times to reflect on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10875]]></link><description><![CDATA[Creatures whose mainspring is curiosity enjoy the accumulating of facts far more than the pausing at times to reflect on those facts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a good Milan.

Instead of the living, loving, self-manifesting God of the Old Testament Israel now took hold of the abstract idea of the unity, or rather the unicity, of God, as if that were God. Before -- when they lived in communion with God, when God was known to them as a Person, speaking, acting, blessing, who had chosen them, who was educating them, and who was going to fulfill His promises -- they declared, in opposition to the idolatrous nations that surrounded them, that this God of Israel was one God, that there are not many gods; but when they lost communion with God, in order to show what distinguished them from the nations of the earth, and especially from Christians, they emphasized that God in Himself was only one Person, and not as He is revealed to us in the Scripture: Sender, Sent, and Spirit. It is the boast of the modern Jewish synagogue that their great mission is to testify to the world the unity of God. But it is a striking fact that the Gentile nations who have, since the dispersion of Israel, been converted from idolatry, have been influenced, not by the synagogue, but by the congregations of Jesus Christ, and were baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost... It is one thing to believe in justification by faith, it is another thing to be justified by faith; and so it is one thing to believe in God, who is One, and it is another to believe in the numerical abstraction, in the mere idea of unicity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The game of History is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of thr majority in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19398]]></link><description><![CDATA[The game of History is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of thr majority in the middle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We often use strong language not to express a powerful emotion but to evoke it in us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52296]]></link><description><![CDATA[We often use strong language not to express a powerful emotion but to evoke it in us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master.
