And this is the curiosity and niceness of divine love: this is the fear of God, and is the daughter and production of love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our opportunities to do good are our talents. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our opportunities to do good are our talents.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.

Dr. [Thomas] Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realised that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in... An atonement that does not regenerate... is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Princes have no way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49721]]></link><description><![CDATA[Princes have no way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49721</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody who owns the stock for a long-term investment is going to sell over a $60 million miss ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody who owns the stock for a long-term investment is going to sell over a $60 million miss]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Freedom of inquiry, freedom of discussion, and freedom of teaching - without these a university cannot exist ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60246]]></link><description><![CDATA[Freedom of inquiry, freedom of discussion, and freedom of teaching - without these a university cannot exist]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Getting rid of a delusion makes us wiser than getting hold of a truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53727]]></link><description><![CDATA[Getting rid of a delusion makes us wiser than getting hold of a truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53727</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't have to be a fantastic hero to do certain things -- to compete.

What we can see is that both an incarnation and a virginal conception were thoroughly appropriate to the needs and circumstances of the case and were more "natural", in the sense of more appropriate, than the alternatives... In practice, denial of the virginal conception or inability to see its relevance almost always goes with an inadequate understanding of the Incarnation and of the Christian religion in general.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was not the result of any information we received but was an unannounced locker search. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38685]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was not the result of any information we received but was an unannounced locker search.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38685</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hold their nose to the grindstone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50644]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hold their nose to the grindstone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is not just about the film industry: whether you're talking about the pharmaceutical industry, the information technology industry or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32680]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is not just about the film industry: whether you're talking about the pharmaceutical industry, the information technology industry or filmed entertainment, the protection of intellectual property is crucial.
