What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every life is a march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41186]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every life is a march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Caring is a powerful business advantage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Caring is a powerful business advantage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friendly swarry, consisting of a boiled leg of mutton with the usual trimmings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13188]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friendly swarry, consisting of a boiled leg of mutton with the usual trimmings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I told [GM] Roland Hemond to go out and get me a big name pitcher.

Every principle of selection, every separation connected with it that is not necessitated quite objectively by common work, local conditions, or family connections is of the greatest danger to a Christian community. When the way of intellectual or spiritual selection is taken, the human element always insinuates itself and robs the fellowship of its spiritual power and its effectiveness for the Church, and drives it into sectarianism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learning how to learn is life's most important skill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Learning how to learn is life's most important skill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art, like morality, consists in drawing the line somewhere. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3340]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art, like morality, consists in drawing the line somewhere.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3340</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Samuel Seabury, First Anglican Bishop in North America, 1796   Here you have the true reason why ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6997]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Samuel Seabury, First Anglican Bishop in North America, 1796   Here you have the true reason why revenge or vengeance is not allowed to man: it is because vengeance can only work in the evil or disordered properties of fallen nature. But man, being himself a part of fallen nature and subject to its disordered properties, is not allowed to work with them, because it would be stirring up evil in himself, and that is his sin of wrath or revenge. God therefore reserves all vengeance to Himself, not because wrathful revenge is a temper or quality that can have any place in the holy Deity, but because the holy supernatural Deity, being free from all the properties of nature, whence partial love and hatred spring, and being in Himself nothing but an infinity of love, wisdom, and goodness, He alone knows how to overrule the disorders of nature, and so to repay evil with evil, that the highest good may be promoted by it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What people say behind your back is your standing in the community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17922]]></link><description><![CDATA[What people say behind your back is your standing in the community.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[. . . how man evolved with such an incredible reservoir of talent and such fantastic diversity isn't completely understood ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12594]]></link><description><![CDATA[. . . how man evolved with such an incredible reservoir of talent and such fantastic diversity isn't completely understood . . . he knows so little and has nothing to measure himself against.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your spirit is the true shield. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65173]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your spirit is the true shield.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We like to test things... no matter how good an idea sounds, test it first. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9515]]></link><description><![CDATA[We like to test things... no matter how good an idea sounds, test it first.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sex is like art.
