Origen seems to have put forward a definition generally agreed upon among ecclesiastical writers when he said that it is a faculty of the reason to distinguish between good and evil, a faculty of the will to choose one or the other. Augustine does not disagree with this when he teaches that it is a faculty of the reason and the will to choose good with the assistance of grace; evil, when grace is absent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In deep meditation the flow of concentration is continuous like the flow of oil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26798]]></link><description><![CDATA[In deep meditation the flow of concentration is continuous like the flow of oil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh! the snow, the beautiful snow, Filling the sky and earth below,  Over the housetops, over the street,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56722]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh! the snow, the beautiful snow, Filling the sky and earth below,  Over the housetops, over the street,   Over the heads of the people you meet.    Dancing,     Flirting,      Skimming along.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I didn't want to feed him fastballs.

Faith is not understood when [it is] only demonstrated by life. The more sanctified a life without the verbal witness, the greater the danger of the Christian's goodness getting in the way. Should a person by the grace of God become easier to live with, he doesn't need to call attention to it: it will speak for itself. He can instead seek to balance the reverse effect of the good image by occasionally speaking of the unfavorable realities within, those parts that are still changing. In this way, his external behavior by contrast can point to the power of God, rather than to the effort of man. When we decrease, He can increase, but not until.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're a very popular company locally.

The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems that nothing ever gets to going good till there's a few resignations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53947]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems that nothing ever gets to going good till there's a few resignations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are fooles one to another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50042]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are fooles one to another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you change the belief first, changing the action is easier. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21469]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you change the belief first, changing the action is easier.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Girls usually have a paper mâché face on their wedding day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53371]]></link><description><![CDATA[Girls usually have a paper mâché face on their wedding day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The U.S. case is more important because of the economic implications.

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A school should not be a preparation for life.
