The truth about man is that his ground is not in himself but in God -- that his essence is not in self sufficient reason but in the Word, in the challenge of God, in responsibility, not in self-sufficiency. The true being of man is realized when he bases himself upon God's Word. Faith is then not an impossibility or a salto mortale [mortal leap], but that which is truly natural; and the real salto mortale (a mortal leap indeed!) is just the assertion of autonomy, self-sufficiency, God-likeness. [It is] through this usurped independence [that] man separates himself from God, and at the same time isolates himself from his fellows. Individualism is the necessary consequence of rational autonomy, just as love is the necessary consequence of faith.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26568]]></link><description><![CDATA[I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being on sea saile, being on land settle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49153]]></link><description><![CDATA[Being on sea saile, being on land settle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As blushing will sometimes make a whore pass for a virtuous woman, so modesty may make a fool seem a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27141]]></link><description><![CDATA[As blushing will sometimes make a whore pass for a virtuous woman, so modesty may make a fool seem a man of sense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we call "morals" is simply blind obedience to words of command. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27721]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we call "morals" is simply blind obedience to words of command.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Telling the truth to people who misunderstand you is generally promoting a falsehood, isn't it? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28091]]></link><description><![CDATA[Telling the truth to people who misunderstand you is generally promoting a falsehood, isn't it?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In poetry, you must love the words, the ideas and the images and rhythms with all your capacity to love ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46768]]></link><description><![CDATA[In poetry, you must love the words, the ideas and the images and rhythms with all your capacity to love anything at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot feed the hungry on statistics. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9338]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot feed the hungry on statistics.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom is meaningless until your own experience has given it meaning and there is wisdom in the selection of wisdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8349]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom is meaningless until your own experience has given it meaning and there is wisdom in the selection of wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8349</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I used to have a sign over my computer that read OLD DOGS CAN LEARN NEW TRICKS, but lately I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1902]]></link><description><![CDATA[I used to have a sign over my computer that read OLD DOGS CAN LEARN NEW TRICKS, but lately I sometimes ask myself how many more new tricks I want to learn.
