He must therefore plunge himself into the life of a godless world, without attempting to gloss over its ungodliness with a veneer of religion or trying to transfigure it. He must live a 'worldly' life and so participate in the suffering of God. He may live a worldly life as one emancipated from all false religions and obligations. To be a Christian does not mean to be religious in a particular way, to cultivate some particular form of asceticism (as a sinner, a penitent, or a saint), but to be a man. It is not some religious act which makes a Christian what he is, but participation in the suffering of God in the life of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Above all, we wish to avoid having a dissatisfied customer.

Our duty is to see whether God is with us; whether we expect great things from Him; whether we do not practically place Him far off, forgetting that, if He is, He is about us, speaking to us words that have not been heard before, guiding us to paths on which earlier generations have not been able to enter. There is -- most terrible thought! -- a practical atheism, orthodox in language, reverent in bearing, which can enter a Christian church and charm the conscience to rest with shadowy traditions; an atheism which grows incessantly within us if we separate what cannot be separated with impunity, the secular from the divine, the past and the future from the present, earth from heaven, the things of Caesar from the things of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/643]]></link><description><![CDATA[There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By merit raised To that bad eminence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27389]]></link><description><![CDATA[By merit raised To that bad eminence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[this case is about Jane Hylton. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32057]]></link><description><![CDATA[this case is about Jane Hylton.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32057</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Self discipline is when your conscience tells you to do something and you don't talk back. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Self discipline is when your conscience tells you to do something and you don't talk back.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're not serving the customer, you'd better be serving someone who is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15982]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're not serving the customer, you'd better be serving someone who is.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[expressing John Locke's view]...whenever anyone threatens any other innocent human in a way that makes manifest an ignorance or disregard ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47565]]></link><description><![CDATA[[expressing John Locke's view]...whenever anyone threatens any other innocent human in a way that makes manifest an ignorance or disregard of the fundamental equality as regards the right to self-preservation, the creature in human shape who acts in this way is to be treated by any and all other rational humans as a wild, clever, and therefore very dangerous animal, to be destroyed (if necessary) in order to safeguard the rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Getting the wing back going may be key.
