Education can receive from the Bible a faith concerning man far more realistic than the naive faith by which education has tried to live. Not man as "pure reason": his reason is not pure. Not man as incipient angel: he can turn any structure... to good or to demonic purpose. Not man with his steps on the highroad called evolution: he is relatively free and, therefore, can and does wreck any evolution unless some Grace constantly renews his onward journey. Not man who by his science is sure to fashion a "brave new world"; by science he can destroy the world. Not man as centrally and characteristically a reasonable creature who needs only that his mind shall be educated to build a reasonable world. Not man regarded in any naive faith, but man as potentially divine and potentially unworthy, who stands always in need of help from beyond the confines of the natural order. If education confronts this faith, education will know that the mind's adventure also, like all things human, stands in need of redemption; and it can then proceed with lowliness, and thus with the power and light which are the reward of the lowly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thanks are justly due for things got without purchase. [Lat., Gratia pro rebus merito debetur inemtis.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18159]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thanks are justly due for things got without purchase. [Lat., Gratia pro rebus merito debetur inemtis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64503]]></link><description><![CDATA[When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't generally feel anything until noon, then it's time for my nap. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43681]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't generally feel anything until noon, then it's time for my nap.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go then merrily to Heaven. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Go then merrily to Heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis a lesson you should heed, Try, try, try again.  If at first you don't succeed,   Try, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59690]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis a lesson you should heed, Try, try, try again.  If at first you don't succeed,   Try, try, try again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They played for a district championship, so they can't be that unimpressive.
