What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Batting for Vivian Richards is a matter of strokes, more strokes, and even more strokes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38677]]></link><description><![CDATA[Batting for Vivian Richards is a matter of strokes, more strokes, and even more strokes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.

It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marge, it takes two to lie.
