If only their being were good, their works would shine forth brightly. Do not imagine that you can ground your salvation upon actions; it must rest on what you are. The ground upon which good character rests is the very same ground from which man's work derives its value, namely, a mind wholly turned to God. Verily, if you were so minded, you might tread on a stone and it would be a more pious work than if you, simply for your own profit, were to receive the Body of the Lord and were wanting in spiritual detachment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When thou dost tell another's jest, therein Omit the oaths, which true wit cannot need;  Pick out of tales ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57918]]></link><description><![CDATA[When thou dost tell another's jest, therein Omit the oaths, which true wit cannot need;  Pick out of tales the mirth, but not the sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me faith means not worrying. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14988]]></link><description><![CDATA[To me faith means not worrying.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulnesspossesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulnesspossesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us arepossessed by our possessions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62816]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The table robbes more then a thiefe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49918]]></link><description><![CDATA[The table robbes more then a thiefe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is in self-limitation that a master first shows himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27981]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is in self-limitation that a master first shows himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart loves, but moods have no loyalty.

The skeptical Greek philosopher may remind us that, after all, the image of Athena is only a symbol, only a means of fixing one's rambling thoughts upon the spirit that is Athena. Yet the idolater will persist in losing sight of the forest for the trees, and the god for the image. The gold and ivory statue of Athena becomes holy in itself, an answerer of prayer, a mysterious source of power, a material object somehow different from other objects. The crucifix, the plaster image, the saint's relic or miraculous medal or cheaply and illegibly printed Bible may become themselves things considered holy and magical, able to stop a bullet. Worse yet, the god confined in an image is a shrunken and powerless god. Because you have limited your concept of God to a man shape on a carved crucifix, you may be in danger of inferring that you are free to outrage the man shapes walking and breathing around you. Because you worship the god in a specially baked wafer and a specially designed chalice, you may forget to worship the God of all bread and all wine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Drooping along the ground the vine misses its widowed elm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50437]]></link><description><![CDATA[Drooping along the ground the vine misses its widowed elm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no reply to the ignorant like keeping silence ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20380]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no reply to the ignorant like keeping silence]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20380</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The question now is: Can we understand our stupidity?

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the American newspapers you'd think America was populated solely by naked women and cinema stars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44491]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the American newspapers you'd think America was populated solely by naked women and cinema stars.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Schools tell us if they want it or not and then we route it around to as many schools as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38217]]></link><description><![CDATA[Schools tell us if they want it or not and then we route it around to as many schools as we can.
