They rushed clamorously into the presence of the Lioness and demanded of her the settlement of the dispute. And you, they said, how many sons have you at a birth?' The Lioness laughed at them, and said: Why! I have only one; but that one is altogether a thoroughbred Lion. The value is in the worth, not in the number.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our whole evolution up to this point shows that human groups spontaneously evolve patterns of behavior, as well as patterns ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our whole evolution up to this point shows that human groups spontaneously evolve patterns of behavior, as well as patterns of training people for that behavior, which tend on balance to lead people to create rather than destroy.

Such an encounter with the historical Jesus is, of course, not the same as Christian faith in him. Even Caiaphas, Herod, and Pontius Pilate encountered him in this way. Christian faith is still a matter of decision -- either this Man is God's redemptive act, or he is not. Nor is the historical Jesus the object of our faith. That object is the Risen Christ preached by the Church. But the Risen Christ is in continuity with the historical Jesus, and it is the historical Jesus which makes the Risen Christ not just an abstraction, but clothes him with flesh and blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our guys decided at halftime we weren't going to let this game get away.

His words and deeds served to indicate what manner of man he was and what kind of work he had come to do; and all the time it is a person addressing persons, seeking to gain their recognition of and their self-commitment to himself.
