Contented, peaceful fishermen, before they ever knew The peace of God that filled their hearts brimful, and broke them too. Young John who trimmed the flapping sail, homeless in Patmos died. Peter, who hauled the teeming net, head-down was crucified. The peace of God, it is no peace, but strife closed in the sod; Yet, brothers, pray for but one thing -- the marvelous peace of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you get caught up in defending him, pick your poison.

Christianity fails because people will keep on the surface too much, they will not go down to face these deep inner obediences; and that is ultimately to be beaten by themselves. We talk big and play so small. And the world has found it out --the great bulk have discarded Christianity as the way of Hope and put their hope in other things.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  September 26, 1998  Commemoration of Wilson Carlile, Priest, Founder of the Church Army, 1942  Even those of us who are inside it will agree that, in the main, the Church and all for which it stands occupy a palpably smaller place in the life of the average member than it did in former days. We explain it on the ground that life has become fuller, and that, of necessity, our attention nowadays has to percolate over a wide area instead of rushing foam-flecked down a narrower channel -- which is to say, in other words, that Christ is getting lost to us in the crush and throng of things, does not loom up as arresting, as unique, as all-important, as He did to our forefathers. Yet that, when you come to think of it, is no bad definition of unspirituality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before this time to-morrow I shall have gained a peerage, or Westminister Abbey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60588]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before this time to-morrow I shall have gained a peerage, or Westminister Abbey.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What passing bells for these who die as cattle?Only the monstrous anger of the guns.Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattleCan ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25352]]></link><description><![CDATA[What passing bells for these who die as cattle?Only the monstrous anger of the guns.Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattleCan patter out their hasty orisons. - Anthem for Doomed Youth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret to humor is surprise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55006]]></link><description><![CDATA[The secret to humor is surprise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This novel is not to be tossed lightly aside, but hurled with great force. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25389]]></link><description><![CDATA[This novel is not to be tossed lightly aside, but hurled with great force.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597   The Christian must be consumed with the infinite beauty of holiness and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7563]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597   The Christian must be consumed with the infinite beauty of holiness and the infinite damnability of sin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You stick in the same mire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51762]]></link><description><![CDATA[You stick in the same mire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His honesty and sanity were questioned.
