That is one of the best proofs of its divine inspiration. The prophets had the forward look [and] great things were yet to come. As one of the most daring expressed it, the old and hallowed covenant, made by God at the Exodus, would be superseded by a new and higher relation; God would write his law into the hearts of the people; the old drill in outward statutes would disappear, for all men would know God by an inward experience of forgiveness and love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But is there nothing else, That we may do but only walk?

Do not take up the vain excuse of your rawness of inexperience which you may imagine or assume. For sterile modesty is never pleasing, not that humility laudable which passes the bounds of reason. Attend to your work; drive out bashfulness by a sense of duty, and act as a master. But I am not sufficient for these things, you say. As if your offering were not accepted from what you have, and not from what you have not. Be prepared to answer for the single talent committed to your charge, and take no thought for the test. For he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. Give all, as assuredly you shall pay to the uttermost farthing; but of a truth out of what you have, not what you have not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If one desires a change, one must be that change before thatchange can take place. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21552]]></link><description><![CDATA[If one desires a change, one must be that change before thatchange can take place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in compulsory cannibalism.
