I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them, the revelation of God to men was made -- or appeared to be made -- less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided, and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[American public education is a remarkable enterprise; it succeeds best where it fails.

Imagine an industry that consistently fails to do what it sets out to do. a factory where this year's product is invariably sleazier than last year's but, nevertheless, better than next year's. Imagine a corporation whose executives are always spending vast sums of money on studies designed to discover just what it is they are supposed to do and then vaster sums for further studies on just how to do it. Imagine a plant devoted to the manufacture of factory seconds to be sold at a loss. Imagine a producer of vacuum cleaners that rarely work hiring whole platoons of engineers who will, in time, report that it is, in fact, true that the vacuum cleaners rarely really work, and who will, for a larger fee, be glad to find out why, if that's possible. If you discover some such outfit, don't invest in it. Unfortunately, we are all required to invest in public education.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our survey this year has definitely found improved profit levels emerging sooner rather than later, and this is very encouraging. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30624]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our survey this year has definitely found improved profit levels emerging sooner rather than later, and this is very encouraging.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45080]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given him.

One very effective way of silencing the voice of conscience is to impound in an Ism the teacher through whom it speaks; the trumpet no longer seriously disturbs our rest when we have murmured '..Thomist', 'Barthian', or 'Existentialist'. And in Macdonald it is, always the voice of conscience that speaks. He addresses the will: the demand for obedience, for "something to be neither more nor less nor other than done" is incessant. Yet in that very voice of conscience every other faculty somehow speaks as well -- intellect and imagination and humour and fancy and all the affections; and no man in modern times was perhaps more aware of the distinction between Law and Gospel, the inevitable failure of mere morality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of course, the implication is that there is something amiss, but I think that issue is far from settled.
