But unfortunately this has not proved true, though we can consider it fortunate indeed that, as this inability to unify proves, the letter of the Bible cannot really replace the living Christ as the center of our faith. The Bible is the expression of the life and work of God, and since life is greater than its expression, it cannot be expressed completely in any logical or theological form. Therefore, the Bible itself cannot escape being understood in many different ways. Thus we see how in the wisdom of God it is impossible in practice to make the Scriptures the end or final authority to those who live in fellowship with the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15585]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rules are mostly made to be broken and are too often for the lazy to hide behind ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54542]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rules are mostly made to be broken and are too often for the lazy to hide behind]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Must be out-of-doors enough to get experience of wholesome reality, as a ballast to thought and sentiment.

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep   The silent stars go by: Yet in thy dark streets shineth   The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years   Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary;   And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep   Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars together   Proclaim the holy birth; And praises sing to God the King,   And peace to men on earth. How silently, how silently,   The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts   The blessings of His Heav'n. No ear may hear His coming,   But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still,   The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem,   Descend to us, we pray, Cast out our sins, and enter in,   Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels   The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us,   Our Lord Emmanuel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On stage I make love to twenty five thousand people; and then I go home alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44270]]></link><description><![CDATA[On stage I make love to twenty five thousand people; and then I go home alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44270</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great question is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with failure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62823]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great question is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with failure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Delay is preferable to error. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11833]]></link><description><![CDATA[Delay is preferable to error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have too great a soul to die like a criminal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10699]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have too great a soul to die like a criminal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17493]]></link><description><![CDATA[The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We recognized a few years ago that we can't adopt our way out of the overpopulation problem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34962]]></link><description><![CDATA[We recognized a few years ago that we can't adopt our way out of the overpopulation problem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret of forgiving everything is to understand nothing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60050]]></link><description><![CDATA[The secret of forgiving everything is to understand nothing]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God's most lordly gift to man is decency of mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28479]]></link><description><![CDATA[God's most lordly gift to man is decency of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intuition becomes increasingly valuable in the new information society precisely because there is so much data. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22986]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intuition becomes increasingly valuable in the new information society precisely because there is so much data.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46334]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The magic of a face. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14855]]></link><description><![CDATA[The magic of a face.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I keep the telephone of my mind open to peace, harmony, health, love, and abundance.
