We can so easily have talks with people, and they can say we have helped, write us grateful letters, even stand steady for a time till the juice we have put into them runs out; but, we may have brought them no hunger for God -- because that hunger is no ache in our own heart -- nor brought them anywhere near to the end of self.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn    September 13, 1999  Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407  Not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up in life. These are words by which the slanderers of the nature, of the body, the impeachers of our flesh, are completely overthrown... We do not wish to cast aside the body, but corruption: not the flesh, but death. The body is one thing, corruption another; the body is one thing, death another... What is foreign to us is not the body but corruptibility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is an offensive, directed against the repetitious mechanisms of the universe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is an offensive, directed against the repetitious mechanisms of the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never completed high school and I am very rich and very successful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5392]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never completed high school and I am very rich and very successful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, who can hold a fire in his hand By thinking on the frosty Caucasus?

The Scriptures indeed were at hand for the study of those who could avail themselves of them, but St. Iranaeus does not hesitate to speak of whole races who had been converted to Christianity, without being able to read them. To be unable to read or write was in those times no evidence of want of learning; the hermits of the deserts were, in one sense of the word, illiterate, yet the great St. Anthony, though he knew not letters, was a match in disputation for the learned philosophers who came to try him.  ... John Henry Newman, "What is a University?" August 12, 2000   Any single verse of the Bible, taken in isolation, may actually be dangerous to your spiritual health. Every part of it must be read in relation to the whole message.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you live according to the requirements of nature, you will never be in want; if according to the fashions ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51161]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you live according to the requirements of nature, you will never be in want; if according to the fashions of the world you will never be rich.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51161</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every woman has the right to be beautiful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34423]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every woman has the right to be beautiful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34423</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One man's poison Ivy is another man's spinach. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58658]]></link><description><![CDATA[One man's poison Ivy is another man's spinach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have always said that if I were a rich man I would employ a profesional praiser. - Wisdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27815]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have always said that if I were a rich man I would employ a profesional praiser. - Wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chastity does not mean abstention from sexual wrong; it means something flaming, like Joan of Arc. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chastity does not mean abstention from sexual wrong; it means something flaming, like Joan of Arc.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our country is the common parent of all. [Lat., Patria est communis omnium parens.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45770]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our country is the common parent of all. [Lat., Patria est communis omnium parens.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gardening, I told myself, is the most sociable of hobbies.

Knowledge of the physical universe is not to be thought of as irrelevant to Christian faith [simply] because it does not lead to saving knowledge of God. In so far as it is concerned with God's creation, physical science is a fitting study for God's children. Moreover, the advance of scientific knowledge does negatively correct and enlarge theological notions--at the least, the geologists and astrophysicists have helped us to rid ourselves of parochial notions of God, and filled in some of the meaning of such phrases as "almighty".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm like an old warrior who can galvanize himself when he's threatened, but I'm pretty idle when I've got no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38786]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm like an old warrior who can galvanize himself when he's threatened, but I'm pretty idle when I've got no threats.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes gentle, sometimes capricious, sometimes awful, never the same for two months together; almost human in its passions, almost spiritual ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56520]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes gentle, sometimes capricious, sometimes awful, never the same for two months together; almost human in its passions, almost spiritual in its tenderness, almost Divine in its infinity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret of language is the secret of sympathy and its full charm is possible only to the gentle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24031]]></link><description><![CDATA[The secret of language is the secret of sympathy and its full charm is possible only to the gentle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not earthly beings any more... we're cosmic beings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34248]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're not earthly beings any more... we're cosmic beings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A dress that zips up the back will bring a husband and wife together. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26451]]></link><description><![CDATA[A dress that zips up the back will bring a husband and wife together.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26451</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64456]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is like a balloon.. when you push your relationship with someone forward it is like blowing up the balloon. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2177]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is like a balloon.. when you push your relationship with someone forward it is like blowing up the balloon. If you blow too hard and too fast, the balloon pops and likewise the relationship breaks. But if you take things slowly and let the balloon of love stretch on its own, it grows into a huge, prosperous balloon, full of love. Also, if you don't push the relationship at all, or at least hold it at the same level it was at, the air will flow out of the balloon, deflating it, and your love will shrivel up and become flat & lifeless. So when you are in love, push the relationship forward slowly and gently and the balloon will grow comfortably into a strong, immense love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought we did a decent job defensively, Toronto worried us because of their size.

The fact is that a demythologized modernism is overwhelming the traditional Christ-centered, mystical faith. For the modern skeptics are not the apostates, village atheists, or political revolutionaries of old. The leaders of today's challenge to traditional beliefs are principally theologians -- those in whose care the church entrusts its sacred teachings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There rose no day, there roll'd no hour Of pleasure unembitter'd;  And not a trapping deck'd my power,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48768]]></link><description><![CDATA[There rose no day, there roll'd no hour Of pleasure unembitter'd;  And not a trapping deck'd my power,   That gall'd not while it glitter'd.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clearness ornaments profound thoughts. [Fr., La clarte orne les pensees profondes.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58101]]></link><description><![CDATA[Clearness ornaments profound thoughts. [Fr., La clarte orne les pensees profondes.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is an idea which we will present to the Israeli side.
