Those who are fascinated by the supposed superiority of the mystic soul might profitably compile a list of its characteristics and place them side by side with those of Christ. The results would probably expose a surprising conclusion. There is, in fact, no provision for a "privileged class" in genuine Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're no longer a doormat, and the guys want to be part of this resurgence.

This we see in Christ when He saith: "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."  ... Theologia Germanica  June 21, 1998  Alas! day by day we ask that His Will may be done, and yet, when it comes to the doing, we find it so hard! We offer ourselves so often to God -- we continually say, "Lord, I am Thine, I give Thee my heart," and when He accepts it, we are such cowards. How dare we call ourselves His, if we cannot shape our own wills to His?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But I did feel a friendship with him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30351]]></link><description><![CDATA[But I did feel a friendship with him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A land of levity is a land of guilt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18483]]></link><description><![CDATA[A land of levity is a land of guilt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every hero becomes a bore at last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every hero becomes a bore at last.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moment giving and loving becomes more of an option than an obligation, you always tend to miss out on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63003]]></link><description><![CDATA[The moment giving and loving becomes more of an option than an obligation, you always tend to miss out on the beautiful moments of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48212]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love thyself last: cherish those hearts that hate thee; Corruption wins not more than honesty.

That glorious form, that light insufferable,  And that far-beaming blaze majesty, Wherewith he wont at Heaven's high council-table To sit the midst of Trinal Unity He laid aside, and, here with us to be.    Forsook the courts of everlasting day,  And chose with us a darksome house of mortal clay.  Say, Heavenly Muse, shall not thy sacred vein  Afford a present to the Infant God? Hast thou no verse, no hymn, or solemn strain,  To welcome him to this his new abode,  Now while the heaven, by the Sun's team untrod,    Hath took no print of the approaching light,  And all the spangled host keep watch in squadrons bright? See how from far upon the eastern road The star-led wizards haste with odours sweet! Oh, run! present them with thy humble ode, And lay it lowly at his blessed feet; Have thou the honour first thy Lord to greet,    And join thy voice unto the Angel Quire,  From out his secret altar touched with hallowed fire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Th' aspirer, once attain'd unto the top, Cuts off those means by which himself got up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58136]]></link><description><![CDATA[Th' aspirer, once attain'd unto the top, Cuts off those means by which himself got up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without libraries what have we?
