A fellowship of prodigal sons came into being -- the church of Christ. Love begets love. A new power ... was let loose upon our suffering world, the power to love those who have not deserved love, the unworthy, the unlovely and unlovable, a man's enemies, and even his torturers. Christians, in imitation of the Saviour, became, as it were, Christs to one another and to the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7057</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is necessary to work, if not from inclination, at least from despair.

If the universe is so bad, or even half so bad, how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of a wise and good Creator? Men are fools, perhaps; but hardly so foolish as that. The direct inference from black to white, from evil flower to virtuous root, from senseless work to a workman infinitely wise, staggers belief. The spectacle of the universe as revealed by experience can never have been the ground of religion: it must have always been something in spite of which religion, acquired from a different source, was held.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Concern should drive us into action, not into a depression. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9631]]></link><description><![CDATA[Concern should drive us into action, not into a depression.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too nicely Jonson knew the critic's part, Nature in him was almost lost in art. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10737]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too nicely Jonson knew the critic's part, Nature in him was almost lost in art.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10737</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57013]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the error and truth are simply opposite.
