Also, when Jesus "set his face to go to Jerusalem," what was involved was direct action, an open confrontation and public demonstration of the incompatibility of evil with the Kingdom of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more I see of men, the more I admire dogs ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26990]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more I see of men, the more I admire dogs]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear is the passion of slaves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66342]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fear is the passion of slaves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45556]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he made his arrows bright, he consulted with images, he looked in the liver.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a right and duty of the wise ones to purify the strong by teaching them their duties and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54258]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a right and duty of the wise ones to purify the strong by teaching them their duties and to strengthen the weak by teaching them their rights.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690  The preacher and the writer may seem to have an... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7432]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690  The preacher and the writer may seem to have an... easy task. At first sight, it may seem that they have only to proclaim and declare; but in fact, if their words are to enter men's hearts and bear fruit, they must be the right words, shaped cunningly to pass men's defenses and explode silently and effectually within their minds. This means, in practice, turning a face of flint toward the easy cliche, the well-worn religious cant and phraseology -- dear, no doubt, to the faithful, but utterly meaningless to those outside the fold. It means learning how people are thinking and how they are feeling; it means learning with patience, imagination and ingenuity the way to pierce apathy or blank lack of understanding. I sometimes wonder what hours of prayer and thought lie behind the apparently simple and spontaneous parables of the Gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one delights more in revenge than a woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50471]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one delights more in revenge than a woman.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50471</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think that the flesh is necessarily treacherous, evil, bad.

It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It's a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world was my oyster but I used the wrong fork - Oscar Wilde ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14232]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world was my oyster but I used the wrong fork - Oscar Wilde]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It hit a little home for me, actually.

Folks have been speculating about a phone from Apple for more than a year. Being that I am a wireless analyst, I don't follow Apple as closely as others do. What I do know though, is that we are not likely to know until Apple wants us to know. They are pretty good at big surprises. Do I think they are developing a phone? Probably. Probably somewhere in their labs, there are prototypes of phones. Whether or not they bring one to market commercially is another story. Whether or not they will do so on their own is another open question. Hard to imagine carrier subsidies on a device unless there are revenues to be earned through downloaded services and content.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You may as well say, that 's a valiant flea that dare eat his breakfast on the lip of a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55958]]></link><description><![CDATA[You may as well say, that 's a valiant flea that dare eat his breakfast on the lip of a lion. -King Henry V.
