You find him desperately numerous in the civil service, in the official bureaus. To him government is something given as unconditionally, as absolutely as ocean or hill. He goes on winding the tape that he finds. His imagination has rarely extricated itself from under the administrative machine to gain any sense of what a human, temporary contraption the whole affair is. What he thinks is the heavens above him is nothing but the roof.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest inventions were produced in the times of ignorance, as the use of the compass, gunpowder, and printing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19483]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest inventions were produced in the times of ignorance, as the use of the compass, gunpowder, and printing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time and I against any two. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59332]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time and I against any two.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Twixt kings and tyrans there's this difference known: Kings seek their subjects' good, tyrants their owne. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59966]]></link><description><![CDATA['Twixt kings and tyrans there's this difference known: Kings seek their subjects' good, tyrants their owne.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My problem with chess was that all my pieces wanted to end the game as soon as possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5858]]></link><description><![CDATA[My problem with chess was that all my pieces wanted to end the game as soon as possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou didst swear to me upon a parcel-gilt goblet, sitting in my Dolphin-chamber, at the round table, by a sea-coal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55922]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou didst swear to me upon a parcel-gilt goblet, sitting in my Dolphin-chamber, at the round table, by a sea-coal fire, upon Wednesday in Wheeson week. -King Henry IV.

To me, at least, this is a thoroughly unsound argument, for Christ did not come into the world to bring men "specialized activity," but life, fuller and more satisfying than it had been ever before. If the churches have made Christianity appear to be some kind of specialized spiritual performance so much the worse for them. The real purpose of Christ, the real relevance of the Gospel, is surely to enable men to live together as sons of God. Human beings, like children, love to have secrets, love to be "in the know." But the Christian religion was never meant to be a secret recipe for living, held by a few. It is Good News for all mankind and, because it is that, the more clearly and intelligibly it can be presented, the more faithfully it is following its Master's purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8328</guid></item></channel></rss>
