He observes many different kinds of peace prevailing in the world he inhabits. Not all of them are good. For example, there is the peace that death brings, the peace of the tomb. Today it could be called the peace of Auschwitz. Hitler tried to "make peace" with the Jews by seeking their "final solution"; but the evangelical would fight rather than submit to such a peace. There is also the peace of slavery and subjection, the Pax Romana. Dictators are very fond of the Roman peace. Today it could be called the peace of Tibet. The nation of Tibet has been completely stripped of its personality in our generation by Communist China without a single protest being made in front of a single embassy. Again, there is peace that is artificially induced in men. Among individuals it is the peace of the tranquilizer, the peace of withdrawal and schizophrenia, the peace of the brain-washed prisoner. Should large-scale chemical warfare break our, we are told, whole cities could be sprayed and pacified by such drugs. The evangelical is not interested in paying such high prices for the sake of peace. He would rather stay free, and alive, and in his right mind, prepared to fight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's real possession is his memory.

We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is always during a passing state of mind that we make lasting resolutions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53970]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is always during a passing state of mind that we make lasting resolutions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's unfortunate these members put the party in this situation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30952]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's unfortunate these members put the party in this situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30682]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no color prejudices nor caste prejudices nor creed prejudices.

For infinite wisdom does not need telling what is best, and infinite goodness needs no urging to do it. But neither does God need any of those things that are done by finite agents, whether living or inanimate. He could, if He chose, repair our bodies miraculously without food; or give us food without the aid of farmers, bakers, and butchers; or knowledge without the aid of learned men; or convert the heathen without missionaries. Instead, He allows soils and weather and animals and the muscles, minds, and wills of men to cooperate in the execution of His will. "God", says Pascal, "instituted prayer in order to lend to His creatures the dignity of causality." But it is not only prayer; whenever we act at all, He lends us that dignity. It is not really stranger, nor less strange, that my prayers should affect the course of events than that my other actions should do so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Writing is thinking on paper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Writing is thinking on paper.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a mans last romance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16043]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a mans last romance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sing away, ay, sing away, Merry little bird  Always gayest of the gay,   Though a woodland roundelay ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5199]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sing away, ay, sing away, Merry little bird  Always gayest of the gay,   Though a woodland roundelay    You ne'er sung not heard;     Though your life from youth to age      Passes is a narrow cage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wished your venison better--it was ill killed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13270]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wished your venison better--it was ill killed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfect is determined in shortened measures of time, not over long periods of time or lifetimes.
