The nonbelieving brave men he met in the anti-Nazi underground, the stark realities of prison life, and his disappointment in the professional churchmen of Germany, all may have influenced Bonhoeffer to see real Christianity as "non-religious" and "worldly"... The opposition between sacred and secular, supernatural and natural, seemed unreal to him -- the apparent opposites are united in Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While resignation gently slopes the way; And, all his prospects brightening to the last,  His heaven commences ere the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19094]]></link><description><![CDATA[While resignation gently slopes the way; And, all his prospects brightening to the last,  His heaven commences ere the world be past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A whole stack of memories never equal one little hope. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64472]]></link><description><![CDATA[A whole stack of memories never equal one little hope.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64472</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is past is prologue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64244]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is past is prologue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I got to know David Allan through a friend about five years ago.

Be daily, therefore, on your knees, in a solemn deliberate performance of this devotion, praying for others in such forms, with such length, importunity, and earnestness, as you use for yourself; and you will find all little, ill-natured passions die away, your heart grow great and generous, delighting in the common happiness of others, as you used only to delight in your own... It was this holy intercession that raised Christians to such a state of mutual love, as far exceeded all that had been praised and admired in human friendship. And when the same spirit of intercession is again in the world, when Christianity has the same power over the hearts of people that it then had, this holy friendship will be again in fashion, and Christians will be again the wonder of the world, for that exceeding love which they bear to one another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all easily taught to imitate what is base and depraved. [Lat., Dociles imitandis  Turpibus ac pravis omnes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20571]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are all easily taught to imitate what is base and depraved. [Lat., Dociles imitandis  Turpibus ac pravis omnes sumus.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humanity is the sin of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humanity is the sin of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Fed ought to like it [the producer price report], and personally I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42254]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Fed ought to like it [the producer price report], and personally I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For there was never yet philosopher That could endure the toothache patiently. -Much Ado about Nothing.

The surest symbol of spiritual earnestness will be the checkbook, the affections, and the ego-drive surrendered to Him. A disciple must have discipline. He must not be afraid of being asked by God for some of the time, the money, and the pleasure he has been in the habit of calling his "own". This does not mean that there will not be time for the family, and time for some healthy diversion. But it does mean that we are never -- on vacation, or wherever we may be -- exempt from our primary commitment to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Henry Martyn, Translator of the Scriptures, Missionary in India & Persia, 1812  Some have said that the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8140]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Henry Martyn, Translator of the Scriptures, Missionary in India & Persia, 1812  Some have said that the power of a Redeemer would depend upon two things; first, upon the richness of the self that was given; and second, upon the depths of the giving. Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ... Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. Character is supreme in life, hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing -- so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code but a character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unintelligible answers to insoluble problems. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36455]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unintelligible answers to insoluble problems.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll always be Number 1 to myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57572]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll always be Number 1 to myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstance. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstance. -Bruce Barton.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intelligence is that faculty of mind, by which order is perceived in a situation previously considered disordered. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46347]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intelligence is that faculty of mind, by which order is perceived in a situation previously considered disordered.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1031]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He wants Texas back. (when asked what terms Mexican-born pitching sensation Fernando Valenzuela might settle for in his upcoming contract ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57631]]></link><description><![CDATA[He wants Texas back. (when asked what terms Mexican-born pitching sensation Fernando Valenzuela might settle for in his upcoming contract negotiations)]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need to guarantee equal rights and civil rights and say that, here in America, workers have the right to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8813]]></link><description><![CDATA[We need to guarantee equal rights and civil rights and say that, here in America, workers have the right to organize - women have the right to choose - and justice belongs to everyone regardless of race or gender or sexual orientation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When in doubt, don't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/878]]></link><description><![CDATA[When in doubt, don't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each night the Tree of Nutout of naught knits neat nuts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62658]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each night the Tree of Nutout of naught knits neat nuts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a system that is broken, ...
