This is part of the responsibility we accord our licensed jesters, that nothing be excused the searching light of comedy. If anything can survive the probe of humour it is clearly of value, and conversely all groups who claim immunity from laughter are claiming special privileges which should not be granted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We probably dominated for 70 minutes out of 90 tonight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38426]]></link><description><![CDATA[We probably dominated for 70 minutes out of 90 tonight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're good ...

The old prophets, when they would describe things emphatically, did not only draw parables from things which offered themselves, as from the rent of a garment, ... from the vessels of a potter, ... but also, when such objects were wanting, they supplied them by their own actions, as by rending a garment, ... by shooting, ... etc. By such types the prophets loved to speak. And Christ, being endued with a nobler prophet spirit than the rest, excelled also in this kind of speaking, yet so as not to speak by His own actions -- [which would have been] less grave and decent -- but to turn into parables such things as offered themselves. On occasion of the harvest approaching, He admonishes His disciples once and again of the spiritual harvest. Seeing the lilies of the field, He admonishes His disciples about clothing. In allusion to the present season of fruits, He admonishes His disciples about knowing men by their fruits. In the time of the Passover, when trees put forth their leaves, He bids His disciples, "learn a parable from the fig-tree".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8436</guid></item></channel></rss>
