We see that many articulate secularists are well-meaning and law-abiding men; we see them go into righteous indignation over injustice and often devote their lives to good works. So we conclude that "he can't be wrong whose life is in the right" -- that their philosophies are just as good guides to action as Christianity. What we don't see is that they are not acting on their philosophies. They are acting, out of habit or sentiment, on an inherited Christian ethic which they still take for granted though they have rejected the creed from which it sprang. Their children will inherit some what less of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And let these altars, wreathed with flowers And piled with fruits, awake again  Thanksgivings for the golden hours,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58998]]></link><description><![CDATA[And let these altars, wreathed with flowers And piled with fruits, awake again  Thanksgivings for the golden hours,   The early and the latter rain!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And see all sights from pole to pole And glance, and nod, and bustle by,  And never once possess ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57267]]></link><description><![CDATA[And see all sights from pole to pole And glance, and nod, and bustle by,  And never once possess our soul   Before we die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The American Baseball Coaches Association started All-American honors in that year.

Jesus says His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it... Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow, in which no work can be done any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We never expected to get this far.
