And since, falling, he was openly exposed, none may flatter himself that the cause of Christ is bound up with his reputation, that the mischief must needs be averted which his downfall would entail, that Providence must needs avert from him the natural penalties for evil-doing. Though one was as the signet upon the Lord's hand, yet was he plucked thence. There is no security for any soul except where love and trust repose, upon the bosom of Christ. Now if this be true, and if sin and scandal may conceivably penetrate even the inmost circle of the chosen, how great an error it is to break, because of these offenses, the unity of the Church, and institute some new communion, purer far than the Churches of Corinth and Galatia, which were not abandoned but reformed, and more impenetrable to corruption than the little group of those who ate and drank with Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tact: to lie about others as you would have them lie about you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58551]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tact: to lie about others as you would have them lie about you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has a strong enough why can bear almost any how. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21238]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has a strong enough why can bear almost any how.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One does not have to be an angel in order to be saint. -Albert Schweitzer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55242]]></link><description><![CDATA[One does not have to be an angel in order to be saint. -Albert Schweitzer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family: Whatever you call it, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family: Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't let worn-out beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65550]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't let worn-out beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape... it allows us to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3301]]></link><description><![CDATA[One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric.
