It comes from him in his Sonship in a double way, as man living to God and as God living with men. Belief in him and loyalty to his cause involve men in the double movement, from world to God and from God to world. Even when theologies fail to do justice to this fact, Christians living with Christ in their cultures are aware of it. For they are forever being challenged to abandon all things for the sake of God; and forever being sent back into the world to teach and practice all the things that have been commanded them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12268]]></link><description><![CDATA[Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The truest expression of a people is in its dances and its music. Bodies never lie. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11030]]></link><description><![CDATA[The truest expression of a people is in its dances and its music. Bodies never lie.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If time is precious, no book that will not improve by repeated readings deserves to be read at all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53002]]></link><description><![CDATA[If time is precious, no book that will not improve by repeated readings deserves to be read at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What a man does by the agency of another is his own act. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50558]]></link><description><![CDATA[What a man does by the agency of another is his own act.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24581]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Russian Communism is the illegitimate child of Karl Marx and Catherine the Great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31996]]></link><description><![CDATA[Russian Communism is the illegitimate child of Karl Marx and Catherine the Great.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who should teach men to die, would at the same time teach them to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14401]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who should teach men to die, would at the same time teach them to live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In T-1, our goal was to repeat with the Corvette, and get the Viper and Andrew up there.

People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[St. Paul] always contrived to bring his hearers to a point.

There was none of the indeterminate, inconclusive talking which we are apt to describe as "sowing the seed". Our idea of sowing the seed seems to be rather like scattering wheat out of a balloon... Occasionally, of course, grains of wheat scattered out of a balloon will fall upon ploughed and fertile land and will spring up and bear fruit; but it is a casual method of sowing. Paul did not scatter seeds, he planted. He so dealt with his hearers that he brought them speedily and directly to a point of decision, and then he demanded of them that they should make a choice and act on their choice. In this way he kept the moral issue clearly before them, and made them realize that his preaching was not merely a novel and interesting doctrine, but a life. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A difference, to be a difference, must make a difference. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22624]]></link><description><![CDATA[A difference, to be a difference, must make a difference.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How much pain they have cost us, the evils which have never happened. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66819]]></link><description><![CDATA[How much pain they have cost us, the evils which have never happened.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66819</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambiguity in directors is a hard thing to deal with. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64606]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambiguity in directors is a hard thing to deal with.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think the girl who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66372]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think the girl who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as happy as anybody on earth.
