I would know any man as a Christian, would rejoice to know any man as a Christian, whom Jesus would recognize as a Christian; and Jesus Christ, I am sure, in these old days recognized His followers even if they came after Him with the blindest sight, with the most imperfect recognition and acknowledgment of what He was and of what He could do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We all live under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40227]]></link><description><![CDATA[We all live under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Compromise is never anything but an ignoble truce between the duty of a man and the terror of a coward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Compromise is never anything but an ignoble truce between the duty of a man and the terror of a coward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exactness is the sublimity of fools. [Fr., L'exactitude est le sublime des sots.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16338]]></link><description><![CDATA[Exactness is the sublimity of fools. [Fr., L'exactitude est le sublime des sots.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of James Hannington, Bishop of Eastern Equatorial Africa, Martyr in Uganda, 1885   In our Ashrams of East ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8109]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of James Hannington, Bishop of Eastern Equatorial Africa, Martyr in Uganda, 1885   In our Ashrams of East and West, places of spiritual retreat, we begin with what we call "The Morning of the Open Heart", in which we tell our needs... We give four or five hours to this catharsis. The reaction of one member, who listened to it for the first time, was: "Good gracious, have we all the disrupted people in the country here?"

Nor is the suffering God a fair ideal  Engendered in the questioning hearts of men,  A figment of the mind to help me steel  My soul to rude realities I ken.
