First, that the truth of the Scriptures be inviolably maintained. Secondly, since Scripture doth admit of diverse interpretations, that no one cling to any particular exposition with such pertinacity that, if what he supposed to be the teaching of Scripture should afterward turn out to be clearly false, he should nevertheless still presume to put it forward, lest thereby the sacred Scriptures should be exposed to the derision of unbelievers and the way of salvation should be closed to them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On a single winged word hath hung the destiny of nations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21725]]></link><description><![CDATA[On a single winged word hath hung the destiny of nations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opera in English is, in the main, about as sensible as baseball in Italian. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43458]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opera in English is, in the main, about as sensible as baseball in Italian.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ther's no great banquet but some fares ill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49944]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ther's no great banquet but some fares ill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone who clings to the historically untrue -- and -- thoroughly immoral doctrine that violence never solves anything I would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60669]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone who clings to the historically untrue -- and -- thoroughly immoral doctrine that violence never solves anything I would advise to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler would referee. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor; and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst.

For it is to this end that he brings his own body into subjection, that he may be able to serve others more sincerely and more freely... Thus it is impossible that he should take his ease in this life, and not work for the good of his neighbors, since he must needs speak, act, and converse among men, just as Christ... had His conversation among men... It is the part of a Christian to take care of his own body for the very purpose that by its soundness and wellbeing he may be enabled to labor... for the aid of those who are in want, that thus the stronger member may serve the weaker member, and we may be children of God, and busy for one another, bearing one another's burdens, and so fulfilling the law of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coach Bruce Weber told me in a meeting that all I have to do is play pretty well.

On the most general level, they're an explicit acknowledgment that what you're doing is insufficiently interesting or rewarding for you to do it on your own. Nobody ever gave you a grade for learning how to play, how to ride a bicycle, or how to kiss. One of the best ways to destroy love for any of these activities would be through the use of grades, and the coercion and judgment they represent. Grades are a cudgel to bludgeon the unwilling into doing what they don't want to do, an important instrument in inculcating children into a lifelong subservience to whatever authority happens to be thrust over them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always remember that you are absolutely unique.

It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55177]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My worst fear is that I'll end up living in some run-down duplex on Wilshire wearing pants hiked up to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44158]]></link><description><![CDATA[My worst fear is that I'll end up living in some run-down duplex on Wilshire wearing pants hiked up to my nipples and muttering under my breath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44158</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything you can imagine is real. -Picasso. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20558]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything you can imagine is real. -Picasso.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20558</guid></item></channel></rss>
