In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world. It is also the language of the Bible, of the parables of Christ, which the rationalist of today finds it so difficult to understand, of the Word of God which demands of us not a discussion but a personal decision.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So, where's the Cannes Film Festival being held this year? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31769]]></link><description><![CDATA[So, where's the Cannes Film Festival being held this year?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do whatever you want in the back room of pharmacies, but keep it away from consumers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39570]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do whatever you want in the back room of pharmacies, but keep it away from consumers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nonsense and beauty have close connections. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nonsense and beauty have close connections.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Columba, Abbot of Iona, Missionary, 597 Commemoration of Ephrem of Syria, Deacon, Hymnographer, Teacher, 373   If ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Columba, Abbot of Iona, Missionary, 597 Commemoration of Ephrem of Syria, Deacon, Hymnographer, Teacher, 373   If we would indeed know God in growing intimacy, we must go this way of renunciation. And if we are set upon the pursuit of God, He will sooner or later bring us to this test. Abraham's testing was, at the time, not known to him as such, yet if he had taken some course other than the one he did, the whole history off the Old Testament would have been different. God would have found His man, no doubt, but the loss to Abraham would have been tragic beyond the telling. So we will be brought one by one to the testing place, and we may never know when we are there. At that testing place there will be no dozen possible choices for us; just one and an alternative, but our whole future will be conditioned by the choice we make.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most cell phone decks are updated weekly, if not more frequently and it is important for content providers to understand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most cell phone decks are updated weekly, if not more frequently and it is important for content providers to understand how the shifting, dynamic environment impacts their bottom line.

Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wisely chosen illustration is almost essential to fasten the truth upon the ordinary mind, and no teacher can afford ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25341]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wisely chosen illustration is almost essential to fasten the truth upon the ordinary mind, and no teacher can afford to neglect this part of his preparation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The luck of having talent is not enough; one must also have a talent for luck. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58601]]></link><description><![CDATA[The luck of having talent is not enough; one must also have a talent for luck.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Methinks a father Is at the nuptial of his son a guest  That best becomes the table. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18434]]></link><description><![CDATA[Methinks a father Is at the nuptial of his son a guest  That best becomes the table.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every intense desire is perhaps a desire to be different from what we are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52289]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every intense desire is perhaps a desire to be different from what we are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When people are bewildered they tend to become credulous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10624]]></link><description><![CDATA[When people are bewildered they tend to become credulous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One does not sell the earth upon which the people walk. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23973]]></link><description><![CDATA[One does not sell the earth upon which the people walk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23063]]></link><description><![CDATA[The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24028]]></link><description><![CDATA[Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Scarcely two hundred years back can Fame recollect articulately at all; and there she but maunders and mumbles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15099]]></link><description><![CDATA[Scarcely two hundred years back can Fame recollect articulately at all; and there she but maunders and mumbles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Must a government be too strong for the liberties of its people or too weak to maintain its own existence? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Must a government be too strong for the liberties of its people or too weak to maintain its own existence?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Best fishing in troubled waters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16119]]></link><description><![CDATA[Best fishing in troubled waters.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6298]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1240   This idea of the Bible's unity is not a concept which is imposed upon the Bible because of the dogmatic assertion that it is verbally inspired. To the contrary, it is inherent in the Bible, for the Bible declares itself to be the Word of God. If it be the Word of God, its various teachings should all form a coherent unity. This presupposition of the Bible's unity provides a test for the validity of a system of interpretation: if the system is not able to demonstrate the Bible's unity, it must be an inadequate system.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The laboring man has not leisure for a true integrity day by day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23950]]></link><description><![CDATA[The laboring man has not leisure for a true integrity day by day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You get the best out of others when you give the best of yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17495]]></link><description><![CDATA[You get the best out of others when you give the best of yourself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One cannot insult a religion whatever it is.
