It is not enough to express formal belief in the "Incarnation" or in the "Divinity of. Christ"; the staggering truth must be accepted afresh -- that in this vast, mysterious universe, of which we are an almost infinitesimal part, the great Mystery, Whom we call God, has visited our planet in Person. It is from this conviction that there springs unconquerable certainty and unquenchable faith and hope. It is not enough to believe theoretically that Jesus was both God and Man; not enough to admire, respect, and even worship Him; it is not even enough to try to follow Him. The reason for the insufficiency of these things is that the modern intelligent mind, which has had its horizons widened in dozens of different ways, has got to be shocked afresh by the audacious central Fact -- that, as a sober matter of history, God became one of us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fascism is capitalism in decay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46975]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fascism is capitalism in decay.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now between '45 and '48, things would change enormously, 'cos we'd had credit in United States, credit from the Bank ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now between '45 and '48, things would change enormously, 'cos we'd had credit in United States, credit from the Bank of America, credit from the Import-Export Bank and people had started working again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2248]]></link><description><![CDATA[God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far as you are a created being made and let God be God in you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sanity is very rare: every man almost, and every woman, has a dash of madness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54685]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sanity is very rare: every man almost, and every woman, has a dash of madness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54685</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just behappy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21293]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just behappy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is the art of creating imaginary gardens with real toads. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46796]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry is the art of creating imaginary gardens with real toads.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ideas that come out of most brainstorming sessions are usually superficial, trivial, and not very original.

He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favour in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings. In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm no model lady.

Here, in 1878, Engels apodictically announced that military weapons are "now so perfected that no further progress of any revolutionizing influence is any longer possible." Henceforth "all further [technological] progress is by and large indifferent for land warfare. The age of evolution is in this regard essentially closed." This complacent conclusion shows in what the achievement of the innovator consists: he accomplishes what other people believe to be unthinkable and unfeasible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If all our misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/721]]></link><description><![CDATA[If all our misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would be contented to take their own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Following his brief inaugural address to the Congress, President George Washington and his party walked over to St. Paul's Church ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60280]]></link><description><![CDATA[Following his brief inaugural address to the Congress, President George Washington and his party walked over to St. Paul's Church for divine services.
