He hath carried us up to heaven & set us at the right hand of God, & shall not we endeavour to carry him to those nations, who have not yet heard of his name? Shall we still brag that we have brought our clothes, and our hatchets, and our knives, and bread to this and this value and estimation amongst those poor ignorant Souls, and shall we never glory that we have brought the name, and Religion of Christ Jesus in estimation amongst them? Shall we stay till other nations have planted a false Christ among them? And then either continue in our sloth, or take more pains in rooting out a false Christ than would have planted the true?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are some men who lift the age they inhabit, till all men walk on higher ground in that lifetime ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42314]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are some men who lift the age they inhabit, till all men walk on higher ground in that lifetime]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tragedy of human life consists in our vain attempts to stretch the limits of things which can never become ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59532]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tragedy of human life consists in our vain attempts to stretch the limits of things which can never become unlimited, to reach the infinite by absurdly adding to the rungs of the ladder of the finite.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to live.

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[This is the light at the end of the tunnel.
