I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The reason lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place is that the same place isn't there the second time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53856]]></link><description><![CDATA[The reason lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place is that the same place isn't there the second time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you desire to drain to the dregs the fullest cup of scorn and hatred that a fellow human being ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5973]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you desire to drain to the dregs the fullest cup of scorn and hatred that a fellow human being can pour out for you, let a young mother hear you call dear baby "it.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conscience is the chamber of justice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conscience is the chamber of justice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have to ask ourselves whether medicine is to remain a humanitarian and respected profession or a new but depersonalized ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26738]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have to ask ourselves whether medicine is to remain a humanitarian and respected profession or a new but depersonalized science in the service of prolonging life rather than diminishing human suffering.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Etheldreda, Abbess of Ely, c.678  Read and read again, and do not despair of help to understand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6895]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Etheldreda, Abbess of Ely, c.678  Read and read again, and do not despair of help to understand the will and mind of God though you think they are fast locked up from you. Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is one inevitable criterion of judgment touching religious faith in doctrinal matters.
