The mystic soul may impatiently think so, but the moral soul finds such mediation the way to reality; and the mystic experience is not quite trustworthy about reality. The pagan gods had no mediators, because they were not real or good gods; but the living God has a living Revealer. To know the living God is to know Christ; to know Christ is to know the living God. We do not know God by Christ but in Him. We find God when we find Christ; and in Christ alone we know and share his final purpose. Our last knowledge is not the contact of our person with a thing or a thought; it is intercourse of person and person.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21435]]></link><description><![CDATA[We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ay, now am I in Arden: the more fool I.

There is a multitude of these things wherever people live together. Nobody is too good for the meanest service...   We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God. God will be constantly crossing our paths and canceling our plans by sending us people with claims and petitions. We may pass them by, preoccupied with our more important tasks, as the priest passed by the man who had fallen among thieves, perhaps -- reading the Bible. When we do that, we pass by the visible sign of the Cross raised athwart our path to show us that not our way, but God's way must be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44818]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thanks to Tony, he didn't give us much time to think about that shot.
