The answer is so plain and simple that it is a marvel how intelligent men can manage to miss it as they do. Look at what Christ has done for the soul of man: that is your answer. Christianity is just Christ --nothing more and nothing less. It is a way of life, and He is that way. It is the truth about human destiny, and He is that truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In an unconstitutional partnership with the state, the church can impose the most irresistible, if covert, controls conceivable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64118]]></link><description><![CDATA[In an unconstitutional partnership with the state, the church can impose the most irresistible, if covert, controls conceivable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64118</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The skeptic does not mean him who doubts, but him who investigates or researches, as opposed to him who asserts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56488]]></link><description><![CDATA[The skeptic does not mean him who doubts, but him who investigates or researches, as opposed to him who asserts and thinks that he has found]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A bitter jest, when it comes too near the truth, leaves a sharp sting behind it. [Lat., Aspere facetiae, ubi ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23246]]></link><description><![CDATA[A bitter jest, when it comes too near the truth, leaves a sharp sting behind it. [Lat., Aspere facetiae, ubi nimis ex vero traxere,  Acram sui memoriam relinquunt.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3704]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin.

For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove that we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life. Moreover, when we have an alibi for not writing a book, painting a picture, and so on, we have an alibi for not writing the greatest book and not painting the greatest picture. Small wonder that the effort expended and the punishment endured in obtaining a good alibi often exceed the effort and grief requisite for the attainment of a most marked achievement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou art a soul in bliss; but I am bound Upon a wheel of fire, that mine own tears  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1662]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou art a soul in bliss; but I am bound Upon a wheel of fire, that mine own tears  Do scald me like molten lead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise undeserved is scandal in disguise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48022]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise undeserved is scandal in disguise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Religious questions have often led to wicked and impious actions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50599]]></link><description><![CDATA[Religious questions have often led to wicked and impious actions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy.
