It has taught parents that to bring children into the world is not a horrible crime. It has led them to see Christ and His redemption of humanity through all the mists of our teachings and our qualifications. It has explained the nature of His Kingdom to the hearts even of the poorest. Christ has preached at the fonts, when we have been darkening counsel in the pulpits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The iron entered into his soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57274]]></link><description><![CDATA[The iron entered into his soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57274</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O joy! that in our embers Is something that doth live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16027]]></link><description><![CDATA[O joy! that in our embers Is something that doth live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Monuments are the grappling-irons that bind one generation to another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43034]]></link><description><![CDATA[Monuments are the grappling-irons that bind one generation to another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Failure is a disappointment but not defeat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12370]]></link><description><![CDATA[Failure is a disappointment but not defeat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12370</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You souls of geese, That bear the shapes of men, how have you run  From slaves that apes would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10499]]></link><description><![CDATA[You souls of geese, That bear the shapes of men, how have you run  From slaves that apes would men!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leadership is the ability to hide your panic from others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24428]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leadership is the ability to hide your panic from others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Despite all of the known benefits of exercise, there are also well-documented associations between acute episodes of exertion and sudden ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31790]]></link><description><![CDATA[Despite all of the known benefits of exercise, there are also well-documented associations between acute episodes of exertion and sudden cardiac death.

And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All weakness tends to corrupt, and impotence corrupts absolutely. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52119]]></link><description><![CDATA[All weakness tends to corrupt, and impotence corrupts absolutely.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Under the most rigorously controlled conditions of pressure, temperature, humidity, and other variables, the organism will do as it damn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28067]]></link><description><![CDATA[Under the most rigorously controlled conditions of pressure, temperature, humidity, and other variables, the organism will do as it damn well pleases.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is either plagiarism or revolution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is either plagiarism or revolution.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods are the truths of other people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61056]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods are the truths of other people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace is not a season, it is a way of life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace is not a season, it is a way of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's definitely going to be a positive for the bottom line, but we're talking pennies here.
