It may be of some value to hold in our minds a bundle of assorted ideals to influence and control our conduct. But surely we need to be very careful before we give that "bundle" the name of Jesus Christ the Son of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19441]]></link><description><![CDATA[People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a shame.

Such churches may invite and suffer temporary periods of unpopularity -- by standing up for West Indian immigrants, say, or refusing indiscriminate baptism. But on the whole, the storms are weathered by churches, and ministers, whose interest in the community and presentation of the faith [are] alert and genuine. Even so, the Church has every excuse for getting itself disliked: none at all for escaping notice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your're not practicing, somebody else is, somewhere, and he'll be ready to take your job. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48125]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your're not practicing, somebody else is, somewhere, and he'll be ready to take your job.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But I account the use that a man should seek of the publishing of his own writings before his death, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52522]]></link><description><![CDATA[But I account the use that a man should seek of the publishing of his own writings before his death, to be but an untimely anticipation of that which is proper to follow a man, and not to go along with him.   - Francis Bacon,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The immediate priority is 2006. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36016]]></link><description><![CDATA[The immediate priority is 2006.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36016</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole point of Christianity is that everyone in the world, from Charles Manson to Mother Teresa, deserves to go ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53529]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole point of Christianity is that everyone in the world, from Charles Manson to Mother Teresa, deserves to go to hell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The absence of flaw in beauty is itself a flaw. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16204]]></link><description><![CDATA[The absence of flaw in beauty is itself a flaw.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most successes are unhappy.
