Some were mountainous; some lay in long, monotonous rows like, the basalt precipices hanging over desert canons. Such was the background of the wonderful, cruel, enchanting, bewildering, fatal, great city. But into this background were cut myriads of brilliant parallelograms and circles and squares through which glowed many colored lights. And out of the violet and purple depths ascended like the city's soul, sound and odors and thrills that make up the civic body. There arose the breath of gaiety unrestrained, of love, of hate, of all the passions that man can know. There below him lay all things, good or bad, that can be brought from the four corners of the earth to instruct, please, thrill, enrich, elevate, cast down, nurture or kill. Thus the flavor of it came up to him and went into his blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are an impossibility in an impossible universe ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20667]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are an impossibility in an impossible universe]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20667</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All generalizations are dangerous, even this one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65393]]></link><description><![CDATA[All generalizations are dangerous, even this one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've had enough success for two lifetimes, my success is talent put together with hard work and luck. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39416]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've had enough success for two lifetimes, my success is talent put together with hard work and luck.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6690]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree and form, in Christ's life, is really a universal spiritual human law: the law of suffering and sacrifice, as the one way to joy and possession, which has existed, though veiled till now, since the foundation of the world.   ... Friedrich von Hügel August 9, 2000 Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at least of their meaning is this: that, in exegesis and exposition of Scripture and in building up our biblical theology from the fruits of our Bible study, we may not (1) deny, disregard, or arbitrarily relativize, anything that the biblical writers teach, nor (2) discount any of the practical implications for worship and service that their teaching carries, nor (3) cut the knot of any problem of Bible harmony, factual or theological, by allowing ourselves to assume that the inspired writers were not necessarily consistent either with themselves or with each other. It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I happen to agree with many of the liberal emphasis on compassion, justice and equality.
