St. John of the Cross  December 15, 2000   Two thousand years of failure have not taught some reformers that you can't stop sin by declaring it illegal. Two thousand years have not taught them that you can't save a man's soul by force -- you can only lose your own in the attempt. Drunkenness and gambling and secularism and lechery -- various hopeful churchmen have earnestly tried to outlaw them all; and what is the result? A drunken nation, a gambling nation, a secularist nation, an adulterous nation. And, often, a ruined Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas! my child, where is the Pen That can do justice to the Hen?  Like Royalty, she goes her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas! my child, where is the Pen That can do justice to the Hen?  Like Royalty, she goes her way,   Laying foundations every day,    Though not for Public Buildings, yet     For Custard, Cake and Omelette.      Of if too old for such a use       They have their fling at some abuse,        As when to censure Plays Unfit         Upon the stage they make a Hit          Or at elections seal the Fate           Of an Obnoxious Candidate.            No wonder, Child, we prize the Hen,             Whose Egg is Mightier than the Pen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Longing not so much to change things as to overturn them. [Lat., Non tam commutandarum, quam evertendarum rerum cupidi.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Longing not so much to change things as to overturn them. [Lat., Non tam commutandarum, quam evertendarum rerum cupidi.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is hopeless; we must hope for everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65653]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is hopeless; we must hope for everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is largely a matter of holding on after others have let go ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58120]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is largely a matter of holding on after others have let go]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unless our conception of patriotism is progressive, it cannot hope to embody the real affection and the real interest of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37168]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unless our conception of patriotism is progressive, it cannot hope to embody the real affection and the real interest of the nation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are three types of baseball players: those who make it happen, those who watch it happen, and those who ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3740]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are three types of baseball players: those who make it happen, those who watch it happen, and those who wonder what happens.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Saint: A dead sinner revised and edited. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Saint: A dead sinner revised and edited.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36461]]></link><description><![CDATA[One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difference between critics and audiences is that one is a group of humans and one is not ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34300]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difference between critics and audiences is that one is a group of humans and one is not]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love to his soul gave eyes; he knew things are not as they seem.

Love is such that, without experiencing the joy of union with the object of our love, there is a real sense in which "the soul dies." A man who loves God according to the Conob idiom would say "my soul dies for God." This not only describes the powerful emotion felt by the one who loves, but it should imply a related truth -- namely, that in true love there is no room for self. The man who loves God must die to self. True love is, of all emotions, the most unselfish, for it does not look out for self but for others. False love seeks to possess; true love seeks to be possessed. False love leads to cancerous jealousy; true love leads to a life-giving ministry.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I build confidence when I practice a variety of shots - hitting it high or low, working the ball.

The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. We survive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want it any other way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favour. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favour.

Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's most tragic is that this denial of basic education leads to over 1 million unnecessary child and maternal deaths ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33146]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's most tragic is that this denial of basic education leads to over 1 million unnecessary child and maternal deaths a year.
