For verily it is not deep words that make a man holy and upright; it is a good life which maketh a man dear to God. I had rather feel contrition than be skillful in the definition thereof. If thou knewest the whole Bible, and the sayings of all the philosophers, what should this profit thee without the love and grace of God?  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ April 11, 1996 Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  When an unskillful servant gathers many herbs, flowers, and seeds in a garden, you gather them out that are useful, and cast the rest out of sight; so Christ deals with our performances. All the ingredients of self that are in them He takes away, and adds incense to what remains, and presents it to God. This is the cause that the saints at the last day, when they meet their own duties and performances, know them not, they are so changed from what they were when they went out of their hand. "Lord, when saw we Thee naked or hungry?" So God accepts a little, and Christ makes our little a great deal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learned men and great scholars have devoted great effort and prolonged study to the Holy Scriptures... employing the gifts which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6847]]></link><description><![CDATA[Learned men and great scholars have devoted great effort and prolonged study to the Holy Scriptures... employing the gifts which God gives to every person who has the use of reason. This knowledge is good ... but it does not bring with it any spiritual experience of God, for these graces are granted only to those who have a great love for Him. This fountain of love issues from our Lord alone, and no stranger may approach it. But knowledge of this kind is common to good and bad alike, since it can be acquired without love, ... and men of a worldly life are sometimes more knowledgeable than many true Christians although they do not possess this love. St. Paul describes this kind of knowledge: "If I had full knowledge of all things and knew all secrets, but had no love, I should be nothing." ... Some people who possess this knowledge become proud and misuse it in order to increase their personal reputation, worldly rank, honours and riches, when they should use it humbly to the praise of God and for the benefit of their fellow Christians in true charity... St. Paul says of this kind of knowledge: "Knowledge by itself stirs the heart with pride, but united to love it turns to edification." By itself this knowledge is like water, tasteless and cold. But if those who have it will offer it humbly to our Lord and ask for His grace, He will turn the water into wine with His blessing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Have the courage to say no.

The good I have is from His stores supplied, The ill is only what He deems the best; He for my friend, I'm rich with naught beside, And poor without Him, though of all possessed; Changes may come, I take or I resign Content, while I am His, and He is mine. Whate'er may change, in Him no change is seen, A glorious Sun that wanes not nor declines; Above the storms and clouds He walks serene, And on His people's inward darkness shines; All may depart: I fret not, nor repine, While I my Saviours am, while He is mine. While here, alas! I know but half His love, But half discern Him, and but half adore; But when I meet Him in the realms above I hope to love him better, praise Him more, And feel, and tell, amid the choir divine, How fully I am His, and He is mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The goal of yesterday will be our starting-point to-morrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48799]]></link><description><![CDATA[The goal of yesterday will be our starting-point to-morrow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have an infinate number of monkeys and an infinate number of Sparcs, they will eventually code Solaris. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57110]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have an infinate number of monkeys and an infinate number of Sparcs, they will eventually code Solaris.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sentiment is the ripened fruit of fantasy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14502]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sentiment is the ripened fruit of fantasy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She was basically going to need more time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34461]]></link><description><![CDATA[She was basically going to need more time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is just during the two week spring recess...[when Congress resumes] he's going to push for the bill and hope ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31773]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is just during the two week spring recess...[when Congress resumes] he's going to push for the bill and hope that the bill will come up for a vote, and then he'll be working toward that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis said that absence conquers love; But oh! believe it not  I've tried, alas! its power to prove,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/162]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis said that absence conquers love; But oh! believe it not  I've tried, alas! its power to prove,   But thou art not forgot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Competition creates better products, alliances create better companies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9218]]></link><description><![CDATA[Competition creates better products, alliances create better companies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is beneficial for them to do this.

Such an encounter with the historical Jesus is, of course, not the same as Christian faith in him. Even Caiaphas, Herod, and Pontius Pilate encountered him in this way. Christian faith is still a matter of decision -- either this Man is God's redemptive act, or he is not. Nor is the historical Jesus the object of our faith. That object is the Risen Christ preached by the Church. But the Risen Christ is in continuity with the historical Jesus, and it is the historical Jesus which makes the Risen Christ not just an abstraction, but clothes him with flesh and blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no such thing as a Mass Mind.
