A lofty spirit excites admiration by its profoundness; but only a right spirit achieves salvation and happiness by its stability and integrity. Do not conform your ideas to those of the world. Scorn the "intellectual" as much as the world esteems it. What men consider intellectual is a certain facility to produce brilliant thoughts. Nothing is more vain. We make an idol of our intellect as a woman who believes herself beautiful worships her face. We take pride in our own thoughts. We must reject not only human cleverness, but also human prudence, which seems so important and so profitable. Then we may enter -- like little children, with candor and innocence of worldly ways -- into the simplicity of faith; and with humility and a horror of sin we may enter into the holy passion of the cross.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Corpse or a Ghost-- . . .

Or dare we do what our Lord did, and see the Name hallowed in all life that is real and honest and good? Indeed, it was a scandal to the religious men of Jesus' day when they saw what He did with sacred things. With Jesus all life was sacred and nothing was profane until sin entered in. And so it was that the word "common," which used to mean profane and unclean, became the New-Testament word for the Communion of Saints and for the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The main doctrine of a fanatic's creed is that his enemies are the enemies of God ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12624]]></link><description><![CDATA[The main doctrine of a fanatic's creed is that his enemies are the enemies of God]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But I do mean to say, I have heard her declare, When at the same moment she had on a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2723]]></link><description><![CDATA[But I do mean to say, I have heard her declare, When at the same moment she had on a dress  Which cost five hundred dollars, and not a cent less,   And jewelry worth tem times more, I should guess,    That he had not a thing in the wide world to wear!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Albrecht Dürer, artist, 1528, and Michelangelo Buonarrotti, artist, spiritual writer, 1564   Man cannot make a redemptive ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6371]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Albrecht Dürer, artist, 1528, and Michelangelo Buonarrotti, artist, spiritual writer, 1564   Man cannot make a redemptive art, but he can make an art that communicates what he experiences of redemption as a man and what he knows of it as an artist.

It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are very confident that those extremists will also fail to disrupt and derail voting day, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37524]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are very confident that those extremists will also fail to disrupt and derail voting day,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only thing worse than a boy who hates you: a boy that loves you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66056]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only thing worse than a boy who hates you: a boy that loves you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we suppose a sufficient righteousness and intelligence in men to produce presently, from the tremendous lessons of history, an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62239]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we suppose a sufficient righteousness and intelligence in men to produce presently, from the tremendous lessons of history, an effective will for a world peace--that is to say, an effective will for a world law under a world government--for in no other fashion is a secure world peace conceivable--in what manner may we expect things to move towards this end? . . .
