A fellowship of prodigal sons came into being -- the church of Christ. Love begets love. A new power ... was let loose upon our suffering world, the power to love those who have not deserved love, the unworthy, the unlovely and unlovable, a man's enemies, and even his torturers.

This agreement being made, the Physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little. And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment. The Old Woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing. The Physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the Judge. The Old Woman, standing up in the Court, argued: This man here speaks the truth in what he says; for I did promise to give him a sum of money if I should recover my sight: but if I continued blind, I was to give him nothing. Now he declares that I am healed. I on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: but now, though he swears I am cured of my blindness, I am not able to see a single thing in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, Let it not be among the jumbled heap  Of murky buildings: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57182]]></link><description><![CDATA[O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, Let it not be among the jumbled heap  Of murky buildings: climb with me the steep,--   Nature's observatory--whence the dell,    In flowery slopes, its river's crystal swell,     May seem a span; let me thy vigils keep      'Mongst boughs pavilion'd, where the deer's swift leap       Startles the wild bee from the foxglove bell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just a great stock to own here, ...
