As one of the most daring expressed it, the old and hallowed covenant, made by God at the Exodus, would be superseded by a new and higher relation; God would write his law into the hearts of the people; the old drill in outward statutes would disappear, for all men would know God by an inward experience of forgiveness and love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Punishment is justice for the unjust. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26851]]></link><description><![CDATA[Punishment is justice for the unjust.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46662]]></link><description><![CDATA[Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis impious in a good man to be sad. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54627]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis impious in a good man to be sad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Phillips Brooks, Bishop of Massachusetts, spiritual writer, 1893   In prayer we express deep penitence and contrition ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8001]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Phillips Brooks, Bishop of Massachusetts, spiritual writer, 1893   In prayer we express deep penitence and contrition for our shortcomings, using sorrowful and self-accusing words. And this often in all sincerity. But, at other times, we are not really much disturbed about it; or, at least, not nearly so much as our heaped-up language would imply. What we imagine that we are achieving through this unreality I do not know. We shall not fool the All-wise; nor induce Him to believe that we are anything other, or better, than we actually are! Were it not saner to tell Him the truth, exactly as it is -- not that we are overwhelmed with sorrow for our sinfulness, if it is not so; but rather this, that, to all our other sinfulness, we have added this last and crowning sinfulness, that we are not much worried about it, or, at least, not nearly as much as we ought to be. Be pleased, in pity, to grant us such measure of sorrow for our failures as will lead us to a true repentance; and, through that, to a new way of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You clearly have to keep watching this inflation issue.
