Not until men get rid of the thought that it is a poor machine, an expedient for saving them from suffering and pain; not until they get the grand idea of it as the great power of God present in and through the lives of men; not until then does Christianity enter upon its true trial and become ready to show what it can do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you just learn a single trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks.

Abraham and Moses not only lived in two uniquely different worlds, but no Old Testament editor tried in any way to soften the glaring contrasts between the two spiritual giants. Abraham had no Tabernacle, with its minute ritual and special clergy. Abraham was given nothing like the detailed code of life demanded by the Sinai Covenant. Abraham was not even furnished with the basic Ten Commandments. And yet, when we turn to the New Testament, it is Abraham who holds the place of honor, and not Moses! Abraham is mentioned over seventy times in the New Testament, and half of these are in the Gospels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Their heads sometimes so little that there is no room for wit; sometimes so long, that there is no wit ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61819]]></link><description><![CDATA[Their heads sometimes so little that there is no room for wit; sometimes so long, that there is no wit for so much room.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61819</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People need to be careful with sparks.
