He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations." The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best-concerted schemes men lay for fame, Die fast away: only themselves die faster.  The far-fam'd sculptor, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15092]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best-concerted schemes men lay for fame, Die fast away: only themselves die faster.  The far-fam'd sculptor, and the laurell'd bard,   Those bold insurancers of deathless fame,    Supply their little feeble aids in vain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear can be conquered.

It is important to assert this, because if we do not do so, the limit which we know apart from Christ becomes determinative of our outlook. That limit is death -- the death of the individual, and the death of the social structure in which his corporate personality is embodied. When these are the only limits that men know, then they are left in a hopeless alternation between hope for an individual survival of death, which evacuates their corporate life of ultimate significance, and hope for the eternity of some social or political or cultural achievement, which evacuates personal existence of ultimate significance. This false alternation is overcome in Christ in whom we are brought into relation with the true limit -- a consummation of all things in which both the significance of each personal life and the significance of history as a whole are to be gathered up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist, it's absolutely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9166]]></link><description><![CDATA[For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist, it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart -- then no problem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9166</guid></item></channel></rss>
