Imagine a man wearing a mask, and imagine that the elastic which holds the mask on has just broken, so that the man (rather than let the mask slip off) has to tilt his head back and balance the mask on his real face. This is the kind of tyranny which Lawson's face exerts over the rest of his body as he cruises along the corridors. He doesn't look down his nose at you, he looks along his nose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Athletics should reduce stress, not increase it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Athletics should reduce stress, not increase it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was no wonder that people were so horrible when they started life as children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40159]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was no wonder that people were so horrible when they started life as children.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And this case is usual in persons of quiet natural tempers, who have had the advantage of education under means of light and grace. God ofttimes, in such persons, begins and carries on the work of his grace insensibly, so that they come to good growth and maturity before they know that they are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Boniface (Wynfrith) of Crediton, Archbishop of Mainz, Apostle of Germany, Martyr, 754   The Pauline teaching is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Boniface (Wynfrith) of Crediton, Archbishop of Mainz, Apostle of Germany, Martyr, 754   The Pauline teaching is the means through which God Himself wants to teach us; Paul's Epistle to the Romans is a letter from God to us, mankind today. It remains the great problem of interpretation, hitherto never entirely solved, how to unite these two things: the keen attention to what Paul wanted to say to that community then, and the search for what God wants to say to us through Paul today. In the end, the question is whether the reader will really allow God to speak to him, or whether he evades God by hiding behind "Paul", behind "the past".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have in place a process through which we are carefully reviewing a range of options to increase the value ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34165]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have in place a process through which we are carefully reviewing a range of options to increase the value of our company, including those proposed by Mr. Icahn and his group.

And if they can but get to be of a Sect which they think the holiest (as the Anabaptists and the Separatists), or which is the largest (as the Greeks and the Romans), they think then that they are sufficiently warranted to deny others to be God's Church, or at least to deny them Christian love and communion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See he doesn't respect you.
