Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is a great Necromancer, for he asks counsel counsell of the Dead (i.e. books). ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49316]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is a great Necromancer, for he asks counsel counsell of the Dead (i.e. books).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1826]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who Let The Dogs Out? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who Let The Dogs Out?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the fundamental theory of all the more recent American law...that the average citizen is half-witted, and hence not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47477]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the fundamental theory of all the more recent American law...that the average citizen is half-witted, and hence not to be trusted to either his own devices or his own thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A poet in history is divine, but a poet in the next room is a joke. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25290]]></link><description><![CDATA[A poet in history is divine, but a poet in the next room is a joke.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of us fall short much more by omission than by commission:"While the world perishes we go our way: purposeless, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21171]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of us fall short much more by omission than by commission:"While the world perishes we go our way: purposeless, passionless,day after day.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As peace is the end of war, so to be idle is the ultimate purpose of the busy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20361]]></link><description><![CDATA[As peace is the end of war, so to be idle is the ultimate purpose of the busy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most overlooked advantage to owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against whacking them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24266]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most overlooked advantage to owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against whacking them around a little.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You see an awful lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61941]]></link><description><![CDATA[You see an awful lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with a dumb guy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Multimedia?

The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Alban, first Martyr of Britain, c.209  Jesus... did not finish all the urgent tasks in Palestine or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8124]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Alban, first Martyr of Britain, c.209  Jesus... did not finish all the urgent tasks in Palestine or all the things He would have liked to do, but He did finish the work which God gave Him to do. The only alternative to frustration is to be sure that we are doing what God wants. Nothing substitutes for knowing that this day, this hour, in this place, we are doing the will of the Father. Then and only then can we think of all the other unfinished tasks with equanimity, and leave them with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm the artist formally known as Beck.
