"This friend is always sure and right;  His lantern is sufficient light -- I need no star," I said. I sought Him in the city square.  Logic and I went up and down  The marketplace of many a town, And He was never there. I tracked Him to the mind's far rim.  The valiant Intellect went forth  To east and west and south and north, And found no trace of Him. We walked the world from sun to sun,  Logic and I, with little Faith,  But never came to Nazareth, Or found the Holy One. I sought in vain. And finally,  Back to the heart's small house I crept,  And fell upon my knees, and wept; And lo! -- He came to me!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Cecile Isherwood, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, Grahamstown, South Africa, 1906  The Church has no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Cecile Isherwood, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, Grahamstown, South Africa, 1906  The Church has no mission of its own. All we can have by ourselves is a club or a debating society; and our only hope, left to ourselves, is to win as many members for our own club and away from other clubs as we can. And whatever this is, it is not Mission. Mission belongs to God. The Mission was His from the beginning; it is His; it will always be His. He has His purposes from the foundation of the world, and the means to fulfill them; and the only part the Church has in this is obedience -- a share in the eternal and life-giving obedience of the Son of God... And the most terrible judgment on the Church comes when God leaves us to our own devices because He is tired of waiting for our obedience -- leaves us to be the domestic chaplains to a comfortable secular world -- and goes Himself into the wilderness of human need and injustice and pain. This judgment does come on churches and nations, when they forget that God is in command, that He does the choosing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so well calculated to produce a death-like torpor in the country as an extended system of taxation and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15786]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so well calculated to produce a death-like torpor in the country as an extended system of taxation and a great national debt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So much attention is paid to the aggressive sins, such as violence and cruelty and greed with all their tragic ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2687]]></link><description><![CDATA[So much attention is paid to the aggressive sins, such as violence and cruelty and greed with all their tragic effects, that too little attention is paid to the passive sins, such as apathy and laziness, which in the long run can have a more devastating effect.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Running has never failed to give me great end results, and that's why I keep coming back for more! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Running has never failed to give me great end results, and that's why I keep coming back for more!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['T is strange that death should sing.
