Try as he may, he can only let his eyes wander distractedly from one to the other. But there is a place at which God and the cosmic reality are reconciled, a place at which God and man have become one. That and that alone is what enables man to set his eyes upon God and the world at the same time. This place does not lie somewhere out beyond reality in the realm of ideas. It lies in the midst of history as a divine miracle. It lies in Jesus Christ, the reconciler of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the second game in a row we came out turning the ball over.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/452</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our originality shows itself most strikingly not in what we wholly originate but in what we do with that which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52285]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our originality shows itself most strikingly not in what we wholly originate but in what we do with that which we borrow from others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52285</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bottom line is the attendance is a direct reflection of the product we've provided.
