They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The green retreats Of Academus. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24519]]></link><description><![CDATA[The green retreats Of Academus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The one happiness is to shut one's door upon a little room, with a table before one, and to create; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23090]]></link><description><![CDATA[The one happiness is to shut one's door upon a little room, with a table before one, and to create; to create life in that isolation from life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chide him for faults, and do it reverently, When you perceive his blood inclined to mirth,  But, being moody, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chide him for faults, and do it reverently, When you perceive his blood inclined to mirth,  But, being moody, give him time and scope,   Till that his passions, like a whale on ground,    Confound themselves with working.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no such thing as a good influence.
