Yet with his best thought, and largest opportunity, and the application of his highest ability, he cannot penetrate far. But the Christ of God unfolds both its meaning, and its order. He shows that the goal is freedom, and the guidance love. In this way Christ appears direct to the spirit of man, not by its special acquirements, or special ability, but through its common needs and common tasks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easy to be tolerant of the principles of other people if you have none of your own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59431]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easy to be tolerant of the principles of other people if you have none of your own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44753]]></link><description><![CDATA[He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If ..

You have only so much Religion as serves to disquiet you, to show you a handwriting on the wall, to interrupt your pleasures, and to appear as a death's-head at all your feasts, but not Religion enough to give you a taste and feeling of its pleasures. You dare not wholly neglect Religion, but then you take no more than is just sufficient to keep you from being a terror to yourself, and you are as loth to be very good as you are fearful to be very bad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The desire to be different from the people we live with is sometimes the result of our rejection- real or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56880]]></link><description><![CDATA[The desire to be different from the people we live with is sometimes the result of our rejection- real or imagined- by them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then we started going once a month to Pennsylvania and would practice reading commercials and on the runway. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29058]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then we started going once a month to Pennsylvania and would practice reading commercials and on the runway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We came out swinging today and it paid off.
