How do we distinguish real Truth from human notions and ideas and opinions and doctrines? We are compelled to say that the word "true" means "grounded in reality, based on the real nature of things, on the basic facts which underlie the universe." Hence, if people say -- as many have said -- that the moral ideals set out in the gospels are high and noble ideals, and express admiration for the moral character of Jesus, and stop there, not daring to affirm more than that, the answer they are giving to the Question, "Is the Gospel true?", is No.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So our virtues Lie in the interpretation of the time ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60732]]></link><description><![CDATA[So our virtues Lie in the interpretation of the time]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything someone does on a daily basis should be traceable back to an annual or quarterly plan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything someone does on a daily basis should be traceable back to an annual or quarterly plan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52922]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a cure for worrying, work is better than whiskey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62291]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a cure for worrying, work is better than whiskey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For just when ideas fail, a word comes in to save the situation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27966]]></link><description><![CDATA[For just when ideas fail, a word comes in to save the situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capital can do nothing without brains to direct it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Capital can do nothing without brains to direct it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a great big canvas; throw all the paint you can at it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a great big canvas; throw all the paint you can at it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47864]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Home is the place where it feels right to walk around without shoes ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19602]]></link><description><![CDATA[Home is the place where it feels right to walk around without shoes]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should learn to choose our words carefully, as we can hurt, and mislead others.

This transfigures history and experience. This puts past and present into the timeless, eternal now. This brings together God and man until Wesley talks with God as a man talks with his friend. This gives to the hymnbook its divine audacity, those passages only to be understood by such as have sat in heavenly places in Christ Jesus and, being caught up into paradise, have heard unspeakable words which it is not lawful for a man to utter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sublime and ridiculous are often so nearly related that it is difficult to class them separately.
