Abp. William Temple  November 7, 2001 Feast of Willibrord of York, Archbishop of Utrecht, Apostle of Frisia, 739   The social gospel is not an addendum to the gospel; it is the gospel. If we read the Gospels, it becomes clear that it was not what Jesus said about God that got him into trouble (but) his treatment of men and women, his way of being friendly with outcasts with whom no respectable Jew would have anything to do. It has always been fairly safe to talk about God; it is when we start to talk about men that the trouble starts. And yet the fact remains that there is no conceivable way of proving that we love God other than by loving men. And there is no conceivable way of proving that we love men than by doing something for those who most need help.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10576]]></link><description><![CDATA[Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The horror of class stratification, racism, and prejudice is that some people begin to believe that the security of their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33881]]></link><description><![CDATA[The horror of class stratification, racism, and prejudice is that some people begin to believe that the security of their families and communities depends on the oppression of others, that for some to have good lives there must be others whose lives are truncated and brutal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Simplicity, clarity, singleness: These are the attributes that give our lives power and vividness and joy as they are also ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8841]]></link><description><![CDATA[Simplicity, clarity, singleness: These are the attributes that give our lives power and vividness and joy as they are also the marks of great art.
