Has it transported him for a moment into a spiritual ecstasy that vanishes when everyday life returns, or has it lodged the Word of God so securely and deeply in his heart that it holds and fortifies him, impelling him to active love, to obedience, to good works? Only the day can decide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65223]]></link><description><![CDATA[The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every fat (vat) must stand upon its bottom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every fat (vat) must stand upon its bottom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This acquisition effectively creates a Yahoo! for Linux and open source developers, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40462]]></link><description><![CDATA[This acquisition effectively creates a Yahoo! for Linux and open source developers,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is fortune, not wisdom, that rules man's life. [Lat., Vitam regit fortuna, non sapientia.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16578]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is fortune, not wisdom, that rules man's life. [Lat., Vitam regit fortuna, non sapientia.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance seldom vaults into knowledge, but passes into it through an intermediate state of obscurity, even as night into day ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20405]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance seldom vaults into knowledge, but passes into it through an intermediate state of obscurity, even as night into day through twilight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14227]]></link><description><![CDATA[Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization ceases when we no longer respect and no longer put into their correct places the fundamental values, such as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8830]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization ceases when we no longer respect and no longer put into their correct places the fundamental values, such as work, family and country such as the individual, honor and religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20053]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20053</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love must not touch the marrow of the soul.

Now, we cannot get over this plain fact by saying that it was a religious ceremony: that would be mere sophistry. It was an indulgence in the festivity of life; as plainly as words can describe, here was a banquet of human enjoyment. The very language of the master of the feast about men who had well drunk, tells us that there had been, not excess, of course, but happiness there, and merry-making. Neither can we explain away the lesson by saying that it is no example to us, for Christ was there to do good, and that what was safe for Him might be unsafe for us. For if His life is no pattern for us here in this case of accepting an invitation, in what can we be sure it is a pattern? Besides, He took His disciples there, and His mother was there: they were not shielded, as He was, by immaculate purity. He was there as a guest first, as Messiah only afterwards: thereby He declared the sacredness of natural enjoyments.... For Christianity does not destroy what is natural, but ennobles it. To turn water into wine, and what is common into what is holy, is indeed the glory of Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What the world needs is more geniuses with humility, there are so few of us left. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62737]]></link><description><![CDATA[What the world needs is more geniuses with humility, there are so few of us left.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62737</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most bureaucracies take a while to get it together, and this is America -- we have so much and we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most bureaucracies take a while to get it together, and this is America -- we have so much and we can't get it together [in the face of Hurricane Katrina], ...
