It is illogical to tell men that they must do the will of God and accept his gospel of grace, if you also tell them that the obligation has no eternal significance, and that nothing ultimately depends on it. The curious modern heresy that everything is bound to come right in the end is so frivolous that I will not insult you by refuting it. "I remember," said Dr. [Samuel] Johnson on one occasion, "that my Maker has said that he will place the sheep on his right hand and the goats on his left." That is a solemn truth which only the empty-headed and empty-hearted will neglect. It strikes at the very roots of life and destiny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discord, a sleepless hag who never dies, With Snipe-like nose, and Ferret-glowing eyes,  Lean sallow cheeks, long chin with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12564]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discord, a sleepless hag who never dies, With Snipe-like nose, and Ferret-glowing eyes,  Lean sallow cheeks, long chin with beard supplied,   Poor crackling joints, and wither'd parchment hide,    As if old Drums, worn out with martial din,     Had clubb'd their yellow Heads to form her Skin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success doesn't mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44747]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success doesn't mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65689]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can make a lot of money in this game.

The Colloquies of Erasmus    April 30, 1998  Commemoration of Pandita Mary Ramabai, Translator of the Scriptures, 1922  What keeps most men in "Christian" countries from being heretics in this sense is that they do not publicly avow their disbelief: it is in better taste to be casual about lost beliefs, and a note of wistfulness generally ensures forgiveness. Obstinacy is rare. Millions do not even know that they deny essential Christian doctrines: they have never bothered to find out what the essential doctrines are. In extenuation they may plead that the evasiveness and the multiplicity of churches create a difficulty; but to be deterred by this when one's eternal destiny is said to be at stake bespeaks a glaring lack of seriousness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The public works subcommittee discussed using the sidewalk fund moneys for Echo Lake and connect those pieces of existing sidewalk ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34346]]></link><description><![CDATA[The public works subcommittee discussed using the sidewalk fund moneys for Echo Lake and connect those pieces of existing sidewalk as best we can, ...
