Stipendiary clergy cut off by training and life from that common experience are constantly struggling to get close to the laity by wearing lay clothing, sharing in lay amusements, and organizing lay clubs; but they never quite succeed. To get close to men, it is necessary really to share their experience, and to share their experience is to share it by being in it, not merely to come as near to it as possible without being in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, 1932  Do we habitually remember how it offends our Lord to see divisions in the Christian Church, nations nominally Christian armed to the teeth against one another, class against class and individual against individual in fierce and relentless competition, jealousies among clergy and church-workers, communicants who forget that the sacrament of union with Christ is the sacrament of union with their fellow men? Christians are to be the makers of Christ's peace. Something we can all do is to reconcile individuals, families, classes, churches, nations. The question is, Are we, as churchmen and citizens, by work and by prayer, in our private conduct and our public action, doing our utmost with deliberate, unsparing effort! If so, our benediction is of the highest: it is to be, and to be acknowledged as being, sons of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hold the cross high so I may see it through the flames! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37972]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hold the cross high so I may see it through the flames!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where there are large powers with little ambition... nature may be said to have fallen short of her purposes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2375]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where there are large powers with little ambition... nature may be said to have fallen short of her purposes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are eyes half defiant, Half meek and compliant;  Black eyes, with a wondrous, witching charm   To ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14831]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are eyes half defiant, Half meek and compliant;  Black eyes, with a wondrous, witching charm   To bring us good or to work with harm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are some days I practice positive thinking, and other days I'm not positive I am thinking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59160]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are some days I practice positive thinking, and other days I'm not positive I am thinking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The appeal of the Big Bang has been more ideological than scientific.
