Take that one phrase (surely the most daring that the mind of man ever conceived), "We are the heirs of God." That is what they felt about it, that not God Himself could have a fuller life than theirs, and that even He would share all that He had with them! Tremendous words that stagger through their sheer audacity! And yet, here we are, whispering about the steepness of the way, the soreness of the self-denial, the heaviness of the cross, whining and puling, giving to those outside the utterly grotesque impression that religion is a gloomy kind of thing, a dim, monastic twilight where we sit and shiver miserably, out of the sunshine that God made for us, and meant us to enjoy -- that it is all a doing that nobody would naturally choose, and refraining from what everyone would naturally take: a species of insurance money grudgingly doled out lest some worse thing come upon us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From thy own smile I snatched the snake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56675]]></link><description><![CDATA[From thy own smile I snatched the snake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some hire public relations officers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some hire public relations officers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66774]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66774</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might has well not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66807]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might has well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit.

to hear churchmen speak as though they did not really regard Christian unity as a serious question this side of the End. This is a disastrous illusion. Christians cannot behave as though time were unreal. God gives us time, but not an infinite amount of time. It is His purpose that the Gospel should be preached to all nations, and that all men should be brought into one family in Jesus Christ. His purpose looks to a real End, and therefore requires of us real decisions. If we misconstrue His patience, and think that there is an infinity of time for debate while we perpetuate before the world the scandal of our dismemberment of the Body of Christ, we deceive ourselves. In an issue regarding the doing of the will of God there is no final neutrality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hark, how chimes the passing bell! There's no music to a knell;  All the other sounds we hear,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4130]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hark, how chimes the passing bell! There's no music to a knell;  All the other sounds we hear,   Flatter, and but cheat our ear.    This doth put us still in mind     That our flesh must be resigned,      And, a general silence made,       The world be muffled in a shade.        [Orpheus' lute, as poets tell,         Was but moral of this bell,          And the captive soul was she,           Which they called Eurydice,            Rescued by our holy groan,             A loud echo to this tone.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Goths tend to be rather pacifistic, so to associate all Goths with violence because some of them are into heavy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17933]]></link><description><![CDATA[Goths tend to be rather pacifistic, so to associate all Goths with violence because some of them are into heavy metal music is illogical.

Eccl. 12:6. When he understood it, he called for his friends, and told them of it. Then said he, I am going to my Father's; and though with great difficulty I have got hither, yet now I do not repent me of all the trouble I have been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who will now be my rewarder. When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the river-side, into which as he went, he said, "Death, where is thy sting?" And as he went down deeper, he said, "Grave, where is thy victory?" 1 Cor. 15:55. So he passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for him on the other side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't get the impression that you arouse my anger.
