It would assuredly make a difference if Christians, in their approach one to another, realized that, in spite of appearances, they were in fact one. If, in their seeking after external reunion, they realized that they were seeking not to create a unity which does not yet exist, but to find an expression for a unity which does exist, which is indeed the one elemental reality, they would approach one another in a better frame of mind. The common recognition of the principle would in itself be a unifying force of great value, and would dispose those who shared it to approach questions of difference in a spirit of unity which would immensely assist their deliberations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Service without reward is punishment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49740]]></link><description><![CDATA[Service without reward is punishment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65534]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were expecting the free agency period to come and go.

Men of the breaking hearts had a quality about them not known to or understood by common men. They habitually spoke with spiritual authority. They had been in the Presence of God and they reported what they saw there. They were prophets, not scribes: for the scribe tells us what he has read, and the prophet tells us what he has seen. The distinction is not an imaginary one. Between the scribe who has read and the prophet who has seen, there is a difference as wide as the sea. We are today overrun with orthodox scribes; but the prophets, where are they? The hard voice of the scribe sounds over evangelicalism, but the Church waits for the tender voice of the saint who has penetrated the veil and has gazed with inward eye upon the Wonder that is God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The direct use of physical force is so poor a solution to the problem of limited resources that it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47049]]></link><description><![CDATA[The direct use of physical force is so poor a solution to the problem of limited resources that it is commonly employed only by small children and great nations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every quarrel begins in nothing and ends in a struggle for supremacy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52680]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every quarrel begins in nothing and ends in a struggle for supremacy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Bartholomew the Apostle  It is impossible for a man to be a Christian without having Christ; and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8294]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Bartholomew the Apostle  It is impossible for a man to be a Christian without having Christ; and if he has Christ he has at the same time all that is in Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I meant exactly what I said: that we are saddled with a culture that hasn't advanced as far as science. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42628]]></link><description><![CDATA[I meant exactly what I said: that we are saddled with a culture that hasn't advanced as far as science.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learned helplessness is the giving-up reaction, the quitting response that follows from the belief that whatever you do doesn't matter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Learned helplessness is the giving-up reaction, the quitting response that follows from the belief that whatever you do doesn't matter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men regard it as their right to return evil for evil and, if they cannot, feel they have lost their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24673]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men regard it as their right to return evil for evil and, if they cannot, feel they have lost their liberty]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dim with the mist of years, gray flits the shade of power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47938]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dim with the mist of years, gray flits the shade of power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24581]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world.
