It is not its task to tell people what ends they should aim at. It is a science of the means to be applied for attainment of ends chosen, not, to be sure, a science of the choosing of ends. Ultimate decisions, the valuations and the choosing of ends, are beyond the scope of any science. Science never tells a man how he should act; it merely shows how a man must act if he wants to attain definite ends.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54657]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He just became a different kid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38930]]></link><description><![CDATA[He just became a different kid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life without a friend is death without a witness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11379]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life without a friend is death without a witness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: THE ELEMENTS OF PRAYER   Its ground: God, by whose goodness it springeth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: THE ELEMENTS OF PRAYER   Its ground: God, by whose goodness it springeth in us.

Just in the same way, dogmas and creeds cannot bring Christian unity, because human minds are not so uniformly created that they can unite in a single dogma or creed. Even our understanding of Christ Himself cannot be the basis of unity, because He is too big to be understood by any one person or group, and therefore our limited understandings do not always coincide. One emphasizes this point about Christ, another that; and this again becomes the cause of divisions. If we will only take our fellowship with Christ as the center of Christian faith, all Christians will realize their oneness... All our fellowship, however varied, is with the same Lord, and the same Saviour is our one Head.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63355]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alcoholism is a disease, but it's the only one you can get yelled at for having.
