The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people will believe anything if you whisper it to them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people will believe anything if you whisper it to them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you get right down to the root of the meaning of the word "succeed," you find that it simply ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44833]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you get right down to the root of the meaning of the word "succeed," you find that it simply means to follow through.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Democracy is a beautiful thing, except for that part about letting just any old yokel vote. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61020]]></link><description><![CDATA[Democracy is a beautiful thing, except for that part about letting just any old yokel vote.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who gets the better of an irascible temperament conquers his worst enemy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51608]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who gets the better of an irascible temperament conquers his worst enemy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two most common things in the universe are hydrogen and human stupidity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9577]]></link><description><![CDATA[The two most common things in the universe are hydrogen and human stupidity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Celibacy is not just a matter of not having sex.
