Therefore he must not feel too keenly the burden of responsibility, because at the end of the day all he can say is, "We are unprofitable servants". This knowledge, far from inhibiting action, actually releases the Christian from that appalling feeling of responsibility that has driven so many high-minded humanists to despair, even to suicide... Work done conscientiously by the Christian is his share in Christ's service; but it is Christ's service, and therefore the Christian need neither be proud because it has succeeded or overwhelmed because it has failed. The service of Christ is supremely expressed in the apparent failure of the Cross.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people...find a disorientating mismatch between the long-term nature of their liabilities and the increasingly short-term nature of their assets. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15854]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people...find a disorientating mismatch between the long-term nature of their liabilities and the increasingly short-term nature of their assets.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We thought it was safe over here. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31142]]></link><description><![CDATA[We thought it was safe over here.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31142</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagination is a poor matter when it has to part company with understanding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65088]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagination is a poor matter when it has to part company with understanding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Interest in this technology abroad was much higher for airport security because there weren't as many issues related to privacy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39207]]></link><description><![CDATA[Interest in this technology abroad was much higher for airport security because there weren't as many issues related to privacy as in the U.S..]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a man's world, and you men can have it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27033]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a man's world, and you men can have it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Flattery looks like friendship, just like a wolf looks like a dog. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16939]]></link><description><![CDATA[Flattery looks like friendship, just like a wolf looks like a dog.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16939</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These riches are possess'd, but not enjoy'd! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61395]]></link><description><![CDATA[These riches are possess'd, but not enjoy'd!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61395</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26180]]></link><description><![CDATA[A person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baloo, baloo, my wee, wee thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3634]]></link><description><![CDATA[Baloo, baloo, my wee, wee thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[some people who have same-sex attraction have changedÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã‚Â¦and instead have successfully actualized their heterosexual potential and are now ex-gay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35611]]></link><description><![CDATA[some people who have same-sex attraction have changedÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã‚Â¦and instead have successfully actualized their heterosexual potential and are now ex-gay.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Revenge, at first though sweet, Bitter ere long back on itself recoils. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54090]]></link><description><![CDATA[Revenge, at first though sweet, Bitter ere long back on itself recoils.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As society advances the standard of poverty rises. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47895]]></link><description><![CDATA[As society advances the standard of poverty rises.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must always take sides.
