The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Literature was formerly an art and finance a trade; today it is the reverse ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15676]]></link><description><![CDATA[Literature was formerly an art and finance a trade; today it is the reverse]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's been pretty horrible.

It is what the customer gets out and is willing to pay for. A product is not quality because it is hard to make and costs a lot of money, as manufacturers typically believe. This is incompetence.
