He blotted out through death the sentence of death, that by a new creation of our race in Himself He might sweep away the penalty appointed by the former Law... For Scripture had foretold that He who is God should die; that the victory and triumph of them that trust in Him lay in the fact that He, who is immortal and cannot be overcome by death, was to die that mortals might gain eternity. (Continued tomorrow)   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 2, 2000 Feast of All Souls   In this calm assurance of safety did my soul gladly and hopefully take its rest, and feared so little the interruption of death, that death seemed only a name for eternal life. And the life of this present body was so far from seeming a burden or affliction that it was regarded as children regard their alphabets, sick men their draughts, shipwrecked sailors their swim, young men the training for their profession, future commanders their first campaign -- that is, as an endurable submission to present necessities, bearing the promise of a blissful immortality.   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 3, 2000 Feast of Richard Hooker, Priest, Anglican Apologist, Teacher, 1600 Commemoration of Martin of Porres, Dominican Friar, 1639   People make mistakes when they believe. They may even want something so badly that passion creates its own evidences. Reprehensible though these habits are, they nonetheless fall within the pale of man's general effort to conform the self to things as they are. But when a person acknowledges the deficiency of evidences and yet goes right on believing, he defends a position that is large with the elements of its own destruction. Any brand of inanity can be defended on such a principle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A thief believes everybody steals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46974]]></link><description><![CDATA[A thief believes everybody steals.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The unexpected disappearance of Mr. Canning from the scene, followed by the transient and embarrassed phantom of Lord Goderich. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2779]]></link><description><![CDATA[The unexpected disappearance of Mr. Canning from the scene, followed by the transient and embarrassed phantom of Lord Goderich.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enjoy the spring of love and youth, To some good angel leave the rest,  For time will teach thee ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45679]]></link><description><![CDATA[Enjoy the spring of love and youth, To some good angel leave the rest,  For time will teach thee soon the truth,   "There are no birds in last year's nest."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13461]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just because you're beautiful and perfect, it's made you conceited. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65998]]></link><description><![CDATA[Just because you're beautiful and perfect, it's made you conceited.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Invest three percent of your income in yourself (self-development) inorder to guarantee your future. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21993]]></link><description><![CDATA[Invest three percent of your income in yourself (self-development) inorder to guarantee your future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21993</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fail your way to the top. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fail your way to the top.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coach is always talking about us mixing it up offensively - it confuses the defense.
