God made matter, and was incarnate in it: the comparison of the relation of husband and wife to that between Christ and the Church naturally follows. But this conclusion is not always drawn, for orthodox Christians are often prone to speak and behave as if the Lord... became not flesh but spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Purity of mind and idleness are incompatible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Purity of mind and idleness are incompatible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give me someone who has been picked by the Democratic Party, and then all of us can put our dollars ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30905]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give me someone who has been picked by the Democratic Party, and then all of us can put our dollars into that one race,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In time there is no present, In eternity no future,  In eternity no past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14212]]></link><description><![CDATA[In time there is no present, In eternity no future,  In eternity no past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems that when we are oppressed by the knowledge of our worthlessness we do not see ourselves as lower ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52319]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems that when we are oppressed by the knowledge of our worthlessness we do not see ourselves as lower than some and higher than others, but as lower than the lowest of mankind.
