The distinction is not an imaginary one. Between the scribe who has read and the prophet who has seen, there is a difference as wide as the sea. We are today overrun with orthodox scribes; but the prophets, where are they? The hard voice of the scribe sounds over evangelicalism, but the Church waits for the tender voice of the saint who has penetrated the veil and has gazed with inward eye upon the Wonder that is God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Somehow, not only for Christmas but all the long year through, The joy that you give to others Is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62702]]></link><description><![CDATA[Somehow, not only for Christmas but all the long year through, The joy that you give to others Is the joy that comes back to you.
