It is this explanation of justification by faith only which leads us to the true depth of what the Gospel has contributed to this world. To live by grace and to die by grace, to live in forgiveness every day, every hour and every moment, means to identify oneself with those who do not share our faith, and to realize all the debts we owe them.

The deeper it is, the broader and fuller it becomes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is not a place at which one arrives but rather the spirit with which one undertakes and continues the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23371]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is not a place at which one arrives but rather the spirit with which one undertakes and continues the journey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On a good bargaine thinke twice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49681]]></link><description><![CDATA[On a good bargaine thinke twice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a women except what she builds in a man's heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2047]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a women except what she builds in a man's heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's important to give it all you have while you have the chance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17494]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's important to give it all you have while you have the chance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

But to have any meaning or viability at all, a life plan must include intimate relationships. •Harriet Lerner  Treasure your relationships, not your possessions. •Anthony J D'Angelo  Money cannot buy peace of mind. It cannot heal ruptured relationships, or build meaning into a life that has none. •Richard M DeVos  Without relationships, no matter how much wealth, fame, power, prestige and seeming success by the standards and opinions of the world one has, happiness will constantly eluded him. •Sidney Malwed  Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust and hostility to evaporate. •Albert Schweitzer  The easiest kind of relationship is with ten thousand people, the hardest is with one. •Joan Baez  For me, the highest level of sexual excitement is in a monogamous relationship. •Warren Beatty  The key to any good relationship, on-screen and off, is communication, respect, and I guess you have to like the way the other person smells -- and he smelled real nice. •Sandra Bullock  My attachment has neither the blindness of the beginning, nor the microscopic accuracy of the close of such liaisons. •Lord Byron  In the mythic schema of all relations between men and women, man proposes, and woman is disposed of. •Angela Carter  I know for me the subject of how to be in a relationship is precious and complicated and challenging. It wouldn't be right to make it look too easy. •Helen Hunt  If we are a metaphor of the universe, the human couple is the metaphor par excellence, the point of intersection of all forces and the seed of all forms. The couple is time recaptured, the return to the time before time. •Octavio Paz  The ultimate test of a relationship is to disagree but to hold hands. •Alexandria Penney  It is the things in common that make relationships enjoyable, but it is the little differences that make them interesting. •Todd Ruthman  When you're in a relationship, you're always surrounded by a ring of circumstances... joined together by a wedding ring, or in a boxing ring. •Bob Seger  If you're in a relationship and you want to make it work, you have to be a little selfless at times. •Montel Williams  Assumptions are the termites of relationships.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A university is what a college becomes when the faculty loses interest in students. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25388]]></link><description><![CDATA[A university is what a college becomes when the faculty loses interest in students.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that we can win eight of our next ten games.
