But this tension is not something that concerns the Church and the world as though they are things which exist outside us and apart from us, which we can consider and observe and discuss and have theories about. The tension between the Church and the world exists within us and is the very fiber of our being, and neither the one nor the other is superficial or trivial. For we are, all of us, of the earth, earthy; and we are also baptized members of Christ and His Church. It is precisely because we belong to two worlds that our lives consist in insecurity -- that we are, in fact, a drama, the final act of which, the judgement of reward or punishment, heaven or hell, is hidden from us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Historians and archaeologists will one day discover that the ads of our time are the richest and most faithful reflections ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19298]]></link><description><![CDATA[Historians and archaeologists will one day discover that the ads of our time are the richest and most faithful reflections that any society ever made of its entire range of activities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11951]]></link><description><![CDATA[As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Excess of grief for the dead is madness; for it is an injury to the living, and the dead know ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18357]]></link><description><![CDATA[Excess of grief for the dead is madness; for it is an injury to the living, and the dead know it not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18357</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friendly look, a kindly smile, one good act, and life's worthwhile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65746]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friendly look, a kindly smile, one good act, and life's worthwhile.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65746</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lord, often have I thought to myself, I will sin but this one sin more, and then I will repent ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lord, often have I thought to myself, I will sin but this one sin more, and then I will repent of it, and of all the rest of my sins together.
