In the former there is more of the mind of Jesus, and when He calls them they recognize Him at once and go after Him; while the others examine Him from head to foot and, finding Him not sufficiently like the Jesus of their conception, turn their backs and go to church or chapel or chamber to kneel before a vague form mingled of tradition and fancy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship is the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16882]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship is the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16882</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The genius, wit, and spirit of a nation are discovered in its proverbs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51890]]></link><description><![CDATA[The genius, wit, and spirit of a nation are discovered in its proverbs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Law is no explanation of anything; law is simply a generalization, a category of facts.

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them, the revelation of God to men was made -- or appeared to be made -- less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided, and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart is the only broken instrument that works. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19008]]></link><description><![CDATA[The heart is the only broken instrument that works.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To see and listen to the wicked is already the beginning of wickedness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28138]]></link><description><![CDATA[To see and listen to the wicked is already the beginning of wickedness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Cross    Does not every man feel, that there is corruption enough within him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6706]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Cross    Does not every man feel, that there is corruption enough within him to drive him to the commission of the greatest enormities, and eternally to destroy his soul? He can have but little knowledge of his own heart who will deny this. On the other hand, who that is holding on in the ways of righteousness, does not daily ascribe his steadfastness to the influence of that grace which he receives from God; and look daily to God for more grace, in order that he may be "kept by his power through faith unto salvation (Zech. iv. 9)?" No man can in any measure resemble the scripture saints, unless he be of this disposition. Why then must these things be put in opposition to each other, so that every advocate for one of these points must of necessity controvert and explode the other? Only let any pious person... examine the language of his prayers after he has been devoutly pouring out his soul before God, and he will find his own words almost in perfect consonance with the foregoing statement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you have seven percent unemployed, you have ninety-three percent working. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45194]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you have seven percent unemployed, you have ninety-three percent working.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The situation is only getting worse.
