How do we distinguish real Truth from human notions and ideas and opinions and doctrines? We are compelled to say that the word "true" means "grounded in reality, based on the real nature of things, on the basic facts which underlie the universe." Hence, if people say -- as many have said -- that the moral ideals set out in the gospels are high and noble ideals, and express admiration for the moral character of Jesus, and stop there, not daring to affirm more than that, the answer they are giving to the Question, "Is the Gospel true?", is No.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are certain events which to each man's life are as comets to the earth, seemingly strange and erratic portents; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12062]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are certain events which to each man's life are as comets to the earth, seemingly strange and erratic portents; distinct from the ordinary lights which guide our course and mark our seasons, yet true to their own laws, potent in their own influences.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Irenæus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  Too many Christians still live with crossed fingers, sweating out ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6806]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Irenæus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  Too many Christians still live with crossed fingers, sweating out their good luck as a portent of calamity.

Sometimes migrating groups of potato-washers meet non-washers, and the two groups watch each other's strange behavior with apparent bewilderment. But unlike the inhabitants of Lilliput, who fought holy crusades over the question at which end to break the egg, the potato-washing monkeys do not go to war with the non-washers, because the poor creatures have no language which would enable them to declare washing a diving commandment and eating unwashed potatoes a deadly heresy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest amount of feathers with the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15951]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest amount of feathers with the least possible amount of hissing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Attitudes are the forerunners of conditions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21773]]></link><description><![CDATA[Attitudes are the forerunners of conditions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The healthy, the strong individual, is the one who asks for help when he needs it.
