Now there is difference between these two--many, this for one: that a man may hear a story and never wash his hands; but a mystery requires both the hands and the heart to be clean that shall deal with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7299</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 Immortal Love, author of this great frame,  Sprung from that beauty which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6949]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 Immortal Love, author of this great frame,  Sprung from that beauty which can never fade;  How hath man parcel'd out thy glorious name, And thrown it on that dust which thou hast made, While mortal love doth all the title gain!  Which siding with invention, they together  Bear all the sway, possessing heart and brain (Thy workmanship), and give thee share in neither. Wit fancies beauty, beauty raiseth wit:  The world is theirs; they two play out the game,  Thou standing by: and though thy glorious name Wrought our deliverance from th' infernal pit, Who sings thy praise? only a scarf or glove  Doth warm our hands, and make them write of love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Choose a firm cloud before it fall, and in it Catch, ere she change, the Cynthia of this minute. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8918]]></link><description><![CDATA[Choose a firm cloud before it fall, and in it Catch, ere she change, the Cynthia of this minute.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primary cause of the [denominational] divisions is the institutionalism and organisationalism of the churches, which, without vivifying the life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7064]]></link><description><![CDATA[The primary cause of the [denominational] divisions is the institutionalism and organisationalism of the churches, which, without vivifying the life of the believers in them, smothers or drives it out of the ekklesia, and makes [the churches] merely dead institutions. Christians who really have life in Christ cannot exist within such a corpse and will at last have to come out of it. But in almost all cases, those who have come out of dead institutions want to have in their place another institution or other rituals and ceremonies, only repeating the same error. Instead of turning to Christ Himself as their center, they again seek to find fellowship and spiritual security on the very same basis that failed, not realizing that it is the institution that is killing, instead of producing, life in Christ.
