Surely that is not wholly true. It certainly must help us if we recognize that it is the presence of the Holy Spirit which creates a unity which we can never create.If men believe in the existence of this unity, they may begin to desire it, and desiring it to seek for it, and seeking it to find it. If, when they find it, they refuse to deny it, in due time, by ways now unsearchable, they will surely return to external communion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Philanthropist, Reformer of the Church, 1093 Commemoration of Edmund Rich of Abingdon, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1240  As a man increases in moral strength of character, so his conscience becomes more sensitive; he realizes more keenly the distance that separates him from the ideal, and hence the weight of the feeling of guiltiness oppresses him ever more heavily. Growth in goodness does not, therefore, necessarily imply increased happiness, on the contrary, it may mean greater unhappiness. And his unhappiness increasing in proportion to the elevation of his ethical standards, a man's end is either Buddha or suicide if he knows no God; while if he knows God, it is despair or that conversion which, having sobbed away its tears on the Father's breast, thence derives ever new strength to fight the battle of life, sure of the final victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the sprinkled isles, Lily on lily, that o'erlace the sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23079]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the sprinkled isles, Lily on lily, that o'erlace the sea.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Guard against the prestige of great names; see that your judgments are your own; and do not shrink from disagreement; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1934]]></link><description><![CDATA[Guard against the prestige of great names; see that your judgments are your own; and do not shrink from disagreement; no trusting without testing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On one issue, at least, men and women agree; they both distrust women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27226]]></link><description><![CDATA[On one issue, at least, men and women agree; they both distrust women.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52919]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In their palate alone is their reason of existence. [Lat., In solo vivendi causa palata est.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13216]]></link><description><![CDATA[In their palate alone is their reason of existence. [Lat., In solo vivendi causa palata est.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A thing devised by the enemy. -King Richard III.

That hope alone explains the Book, giving meaning and consistency to its story. Was it a chimera, an hallucination? According to the prophecy of Micah, the messianic Shepherd of Israel had to be born in Bethlehem. It is unthinkable that an heir to the throne of David could be born in Bethlehem now, and be also able to prove his legitimacy by documentary evidence. The event must clearly have taken place already, or Micah is a false prophet, a raiser of false hopes, along with the other writers in the Old Testament.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Live not as though there were a thousand years ahead of you.
