It can happen to anyone who is prepared to abandon proof-texts and a closed attitude of mind, and allow not merely the stories but the quality of the Figure Who exists behind the stories to meet him afresh. Neat snippets of a few verses are of course useful in their way, but the overall sweep and much of the significance of the Gospel narratives are lost to us unless we are prepared to read the Gospels through, not once but several times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I see my reputation is at stake; My fame is shrewdly gored. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53892]]></link><description><![CDATA[I see my reputation is at stake; My fame is shrewdly gored.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sarcasm: intellect on the offensive ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54687]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sarcasm: intellect on the offensive]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from the praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23444]]></link><description><![CDATA[Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from the praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23444</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Meanwhile "Black sheep, black sheep!" we cry, Safe in the inner fold;  And maybe they hear, and wonder why, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23528]]></link><description><![CDATA[Meanwhile "Black sheep, black sheep!" we cry, Safe in the inner fold;  And maybe they hear, and wonder why,   And marvel, out in the cold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're very genuine, very humble.
