The temptation to institutionalism is always with us, and who will profess himself guiltless?

In our little circle of like-minded people we condemn outsiders because they do not come in. Perhaps we even make half-hearted attempts to get them to come in. And then we snuggle down again in the warmth of our fellowship, comforted that we have done all that might reasonably be expected of men in our situation. Fortified with this consolation we concentrate on keeping the institution, the Church, running as it should.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not good for all our wishes to be filled; through sickness we recognize the value of health; through ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20451]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not good for all our wishes to be filled; through sickness we recognize the value of health; through evil, the value of good; through hunger, the value of food; through exertion, the value of rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20451</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is governed more by appearance than realities so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56927]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world is governed more by appearance than realities so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Orpheus with his lute made trees, And the mountain-tops that freeze, Bow themselves when he did sing. -King Henry VIII. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Orpheus with his lute made trees, And the mountain-tops that freeze, Bow themselves when he did sing. -King Henry VIII.
