Neat snippets of a few verses are of course useful in their way, but the overall sweep and much of the significance of the Gospel narratives are lost to us unless we are prepared to read the Gospels through, not once but several times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wear your learning, like a watch, in a private pocket: and do not pullit out and strike it, merely to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22344]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wear your learning, like a watch, in a private pocket: and do not pullit out and strike it, merely to show that you have one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50835]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mind still longs for what it has missed, and loses itself in the contemplation of the past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The condo market is going very well here in Tucson.
