By their emphasis upon the primacy of individual justification, they deny the immediate social character and impact of the justification of the Jews and Gentiles, and they obstruct or delay the changes in common life which belong to the "new creation".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In order to get power and retain it, it is necessary to love power; but love of power is not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10783]]></link><description><![CDATA[In order to get power and retain it, it is necessary to love power; but love of power is not connected with goodness but with qualities that are the opposite of goodness, such as pride, cunning and cruelty]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my finest moment, when all of my fantastic dreams have come true...I will be utterly and completely alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59064]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my finest moment, when all of my fantastic dreams have come true...I will be utterly and completely alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9018]]></link><description><![CDATA[Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes the strength of motherhood is greater than natural laws. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27320]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes the strength of motherhood is greater than natural laws.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27320</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any subject is good for opera if the composer feels it so intently he must sing it out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any subject is good for opera if the composer feels it so intently he must sing it out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kennedy cooked the soup that Johnson had to eat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kennedy cooked the soup that Johnson had to eat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All of these dancers are dancers who are on the verge of their careers, so to speak.

Fear is nobler than sensuality. Fear is better than no God, better than a god made with hands. In that fear lay deep hidden the sense of the infinite. The worship of fear is true, though very low; and though not acceptable to God in itself -- for only the worship of spirit and of truth is acceptable to him -- yet even in His sight it is precious. For he regards men not as they are merely, but as they shall be; not as they shall be merely, but as they are now growing, or capable of growing, towards that image after which He made them that they might grow to it. Therefore a thousand stages, each in itself all but valueless, are of inestimable worth as the necessary and connected gradations of an infinite progress. A condition which of declension would indicate a devil, may of growth indicate a saint.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we did very well.
