"That must be something very terrible and awful. That certainly must rend and tear the life to which God comes. At least, it will separate it and make it unnatural and strange. God fills a bush with His glory and it burns. God enters into the great mountain, and it rocks with earthquake. When he comes to occupy a man, He must distort the humanity which He occupies into some inhuman shape." Instead of that, this new life into which God comes, seems to be the most quietly, naturally human life that was ever seen upon the earth. It glides into its place like sunlight. It seems to make it evident that God and man are essentially so near together, that the meeting of their natures in the life of a God-man is not strange. So always does Christ deal with His own nature, accepting His Divinity as you and I accept our humanity, and letting it shine out through the envelope with which it has most subtly and mysteriously mingled, as the soul is mingled with and shines out through the body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pressure of getting an order right is greater than sinking a putt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29131]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pressure of getting an order right is greater than sinking a putt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29131</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primary function of a theater is not to please itself, or even to please its audience.

It was the God, in fact, whom the whole of the life of Jesus set forth, to the astonishment of those among whom He moved. Loving still, He brought God to men in the same unmistakable way. The divine love that through Jesus had found the public an Zacchaeus had now through the risen Christ found Paul the Pharisee. Hence forward the central facts of life for Paul were that while he was yet a sinner God had found and forgiven him, and that this was the work of Jesus Christ, in whose love the love of God had become plain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A brother is a friend provided by nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15168]]></link><description><![CDATA[A brother is a friend provided by nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who are unhappy have no need for anythingin this world but people capable of giving them their attention. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60104]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who are unhappy have no need for anythingin this world but people capable of giving them their attention.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And last, the crown of a' my grief. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48689]]></link><description><![CDATA[And last, the crown of a' my grief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything is going well.
