We must affirm both the mystery and God. The paradox remained, but now, at least, Job knew that it belonged there -- that it is built into the moral and physical orders, and into the very nature of God as He has permitted us humans to perceive Him. In a world where the universal principle is cause/effect, the book of Job reminds us that the principle is a reflection of the mysterious, self-revealing God. It is subsumed under Him, however, and He cannot be subsumed under it. The God-speeches remind us that a Person, not a principle, is Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[More mony is put into prisons than into schools.

It has run its course. It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of the great truths that will be revealed if once we see free thought begin. We have seen it end. It has no more questions to ask; it has questioned itself. You cannot call up any wilder vision than a city in which men ask themselves if they have any selves. You cannot fancy a more skeptical world than that in which men doubt whether there is a world. It might certainly have reached its bankruptcy more quickly and cleanly if it had not been feebly hampered by the application of indefensible laws of blasphemy or by the absurd pretense that modern England is Christian. But it would have reached the bankruptcy anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only he who handles his ideas lightly is master of his ideas, and only he who is master of his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53564]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only he who handles his ideas lightly is master of his ideas, and only he who is master of his ideas is not enslaved by them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62803]]></link><description><![CDATA[If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only normal people are the one's you don't know very well. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4020]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only normal people are the one's you don't know very well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You had good earnings out of Pfizer, good earnings out of Merrill Lynch , several dividend increases and eBay shares ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37901]]></link><description><![CDATA[You had good earnings out of Pfizer, good earnings out of Merrill Lynch , several dividend increases and eBay shares that have performed better than expected.
