[Francis] always knew where the real miracle lay. It was not in things that happened to his body, though they were wonderful enough. It was not to be found in the fact that birds and beasts, even the wolf of Gubbio, felt the spell of his spirit. It was the radiance of light and love breaking across the darkness and hate of the world and his time. He loved lepers. He loved robbers and changed their lives. He loved beggars in their rags. He loved rich men, too, and members of the Church, who needed him as much as the robbers did. He brought Christianity out of forms and creeds and services into the open air, in action and into the movements of life. He changed the entire line of march of religion in the Western World. Brother Masseo, half jesting, asked him once why the whole world was running after him, not very comely, not very wise, not of noble birth. "Why after thee?" "God chose me," Francis answered, "because He could find no one more worthless, and He wished by me to confound the nobility and grandeur, the strength and beauty and learning of the world." But the real answer is that here at last in this wonderful man was an organ of that Spirit which was in Christ, and a marvelous transmitter of it to the world. The divine agape went out into men's lives through him. Here was a childlike lover of men, ready, if need be, to be crucified for love, but also ready in humble everyday tasks to reveal this love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always remember that I have everything I need to enjoy my here andnow, unless I am letting my consciousness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22328]]></link><description><![CDATA[I always remember that I have everything I need to enjoy my here andnow, unless I am letting my consciousness be dominated by demands andexpectations based on the dead past or the imagined future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65508]]></link><description><![CDATA[We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone in groups, alone in races, even alone in genders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Madness is rare in individuals - but in groups, parties, nations, and ages it is the rule. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63615]]></link><description><![CDATA[Madness is rare in individuals - but in groups, parties, nations, and ages it is the rule.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3477]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are taking sure, steady steps to a place where the state of Israel will no longer be a democracy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29088]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are taking sure, steady steps to a place where the state of Israel will no longer be a democracy and a home for the Jewish people,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist   Paul Tillich can show us that the unity which we seek as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7433]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist   Paul Tillich can show us that the unity which we seek as Christians must involve our denominations in changes even greater than those which many of us now expect. His insistence on taking seriously the gropings of all men for the truth about their lives must be allowed to remind the ecumenical movement that the word oikoumene is Greek not for "the Church" but for "the whole inhabited world". The ecumenical movement is more than Christian patriarchs kissing. Christian unity means the unity of mankind in finding and obeying God. Tillich can teach us that the Church must not shut its door to celebrate a family reunion while a single child of God remains outside.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've grown certain that the root of all fear is that we've been forced to deny who we are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20295]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've grown certain that the root of all fear is that we've been forced to deny who we are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20295</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They seldom looked happy.

Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Junior Blind Olympics provides an inspirational opportunity for blind and visually impaired children to challenge their abilities, surmount sight ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37447]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Junior Blind Olympics provides an inspirational opportunity for blind and visually impaired children to challenge their abilities, surmount sight barriers and achieve their dreams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64289]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think left and think right and think low and think high.
