He is both Father and Son bound together in one Spirit. We are created to be brothers under God, the Father. The human family is our best illustration of how each person grows in his unique potentialities by sharing in the loving care of a society of other persons. Yet each member of the family discovers what it is to give of himself for the sake of the others. The human family is only an analogy both for our thought about God and about society; but no Christian thought gets very far away from it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bachelors know more about women than married men do.

Utopias are the straws to which those cling who have no real hope; utopias are as unattractive as they are incredible, for those who know what real hope is. Utopias are not a consequence of true hope but a poor substitute for it and therefore a hindrance and not a help. The hope that is in Jesus Christ is different from all utopias of universal progress. It is based on the revelation of the crucified one. It is, therefore, not an uncertain speculation about the future but a certainty based upon what God has already revealed. One cannot believe in Jesus Christ without knowing for certain that God's victory over all powers of destruction, including death, is the end towards which the time process moves as its own end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rich and rare were the gems she wore, And a bright gold ring on her wand she bore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17778]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rich and rare were the gems she wore, And a bright gold ring on her wand she bore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18180]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate and value into your life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15519]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I want to hear is he is alive, but they can't tell me that.

His preaching is essentially private conversation, and has at the back of it facts, facts of a life which explain and illustrate and enforce his words... It is such missionary work, done consciously and deliberately as missionary, that the world needs today. Everybody, Christian and pagan alike, respects such work; and, when it is so done, men wonder, and inquire into the secret of a life which they instinctively admire and covet for themselves... The spirit which inspires love of others and efforts after their well-being, both in body and soul, they cannot but admire and covet -- unless, indeed, seeing that it would reform their own lives, they dread and hate it, because they do not desire to be reformed. In either case, it works.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48347]]></link><description><![CDATA[Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am the very slave of circumstance And impulse--borne away with every breath. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8703]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am the very slave of circumstance And impulse--borne away with every breath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind?  Should auld acquaintance be forgot,   And days ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16863]]></link><description><![CDATA[Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind?  Should auld acquaintance be forgot,   And days o' lang syne?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[main line of investigation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29315]]></link><description><![CDATA[main line of investigation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every one fastens where there is gaine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49218]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every one fastens where there is gaine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25805]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, and I was I.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9912]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is, and the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Familiarity breeds contempt; and children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15144]]></link><description><![CDATA[Familiarity breeds contempt; and children.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue in his outward parts. -The Merchant of Venice. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55592]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue in his outward parts. -The Merchant of Venice.
