How did He manage to live without anxiety for the next day -- He who from the first instant of His public life, when He stepped forward as a teacher, knew how His life would end, that the next day was His crucifixion; knew this while the people exultantly hailed Him as King (ah, bitter knowledge to have at precisely that moment!); knew, when they were crying, Hosanna!, at His entry into Jerusalem, that they would cry, "Crucify Him!", and that it was to this end that He made His entry. He who bore every day the prodigious weight of this superhuman knowledge -- how did He manage to live without anxiety for the next day?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ascetism of early Christianity, which turned its back on the world of the flesh, had degrenerated, in some quarters ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26060]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ascetism of early Christianity, which turned its back on the world of the flesh, had degrenerated, in some quarters of the Church, into hatred of those who those who brought that flesh into being.

A higher price represents an opportunity that leads inventors and businesspeople to seek new ways to satisfy the shortages. Some fail, at cost to themselves. A few succeed, and the final result is that we end up better off than if the original shortage problems had never arisen. That is, we need our problems, though this does not imply that we should purposely create additional problems for ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no wisdom like frankness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5212]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no wisdom like frankness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know why I'm not playing.
