I had the opportunity to serve as a bishop in a campus ward while I was still an assistant coach. When I was appointed head football coach in 1972, I decided to approach my role as a coach much the same as I did as a bishop, delegating responsibility to my assistants, putting responsibility on the players for self-improvement in all aspects of their lives, and using personal interviews with players to try to give positive reinforcement and encouragement so that they might do their very best and reach their full potential, both on and off the field.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To poison a nation, poison its stories.

For to men there is a difference of joy and of sorrow, but for thee, O Lord, there is no difference in these things; everything that comes from thee is a good and perfect gift.   ... Søren Kierkegaard August 16, 2000   By giving to Jesus Christ, the Man who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, this historical personality, the name of Lord, the Saviour, we renounce all mysticism. For mysticism in the strict sense exists only where one soars above the sphere of history, and where in place of the Mediator and the historical event are put the inner word of God, the inner motions of the soul, in order to reach immediacy between soul and God, and, in the end, the identity of both. But while it is necessary to safeguard the Christian message of the Holy Spirit from the mystical misunderstanding by calling attention to its relation to Jesus Christ, it is necessary on the other hand to safeguard the message of Jesus Christ and His work from the orthodox and rationalist misunderstanding by emphasizing that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord but by the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Princes have no way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49721]]></link><description><![CDATA[Princes have no way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Channel is that silver strip of sea which severs merry England from the tardy realms of Europe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13924]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Channel is that silver strip of sea which severs merry England from the tardy realms of Europe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21187]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere and screened as our life story in some infernal cinema or dispatched as microfilm into the sidereal void.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing permanent except change. -Heraclitus. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5595]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing permanent except change. -Heraclitus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You Light Up My Life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39326]]></link><description><![CDATA[You Light Up My Life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Excess of wealth is cause of covetousness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10459]]></link><description><![CDATA[Excess of wealth is cause of covetousness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now the bright morning star, day's harbinger, Comes dancing from the east, and leads with her  The flowery May, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now the bright morning star, day's harbinger, Comes dancing from the east, and leads with her  The flowery May, who from her green lap throws   The yellow cowslip, and the pale primrose.    Hail, bounteous May, that doth inspire     Mirth, and youth, and warm desire;      Woods and groves are of thy dressing,       Hill and dale doth boast thy blessing,        Thus we salute thee with our early song,         And welcome thee, and wish thee long.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26616</guid></item></channel></rss>
