By individual depravity, I mean my own. I find it out in myself; or, rather, He who searcheth me and trieth my ways, finds it out in me. That sense of depravity implies the recognition of a law from which I have broken loose, of a Divine image which my character has not resembled. It is the law and the order which are universal. It is this character of Christ which is the true human character. It is easy enough to own to a general depravity; under cover of it, you and I would escape.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every writer hopes or boldly assumes that his life is in some sense exemplary, that the particular will turn out ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41913]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every writer hopes or boldly assumes that his life is in some sense exemplary, that the particular will turn out to be universal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Given the decision by the Justice Department to indict the entire 26,000-person firm, it is invertible there will be some ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29657]]></link><description><![CDATA[Given the decision by the Justice Department to indict the entire 26,000-person firm, it is invertible there will be some personnel cuts,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough . ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64214]]></link><description><![CDATA[Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough .]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Repartee is perfect when it effects its purpose with a double edge.

The vanquished Cock skulked away and hid himself in a quiet corner, while the conqueror, flying up to a high wall, flapped his wings and crowed exultingly with all his might. An Eagle sailing through the air pounced upon him and carried him off in his talons. The vanquished Cock immediately came out of his corner, and ruled henceforth with undisputed mastery. Pride goes before destruction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise person does at once, what a fool does at last.

We are bound to Him, and not He to us, because before He was loved, He loved us... There it is, then: we cannot... love Him with this first love. Yet I say that God demands of us, that as He has loved us without any second thoughts, so He should be loved by us. In what way can we do this, then? ... I tell you, through a means which he has established, by which we can love Him freely; ... that is, we can be useful, not to Him -- which is impossible -- but to our neighbor... To show the love that we have for Him, we ought to serve and love every rational creature and extend our charity to good and bad -- as much to one who does us ill service and criticizes us as to one who serves us. For, His charity extends over just men and sinners.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time rushes towards us with its hospital tray of infinitely varied narcotics, even while it is preparing us for its ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11204]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time rushes towards us with its hospital tray of infinitely varied narcotics, even while it is preparing us for its inevitably fatal operation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most water conservation measures can save our customers money both in the short and long runs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39691]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most water conservation measures can save our customers money both in the short and long runs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faire is not faire, but that which pleaseth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49231]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faire is not faire, but that which pleaseth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49231</guid></item></channel></rss>
