Thus it must be a decisive rule of every Christian fellowship that each individual is prohibited from saying much that occurs to him. This prohibition does not include the personal word of advice and guidance. But to speak about a brother is forbidden, even under the cloak of help and goodwill; for it is precisely in this guise that the spirit of hatred among brothers creeps in when it is seeking to create mischief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Instead of trying to build newer and bigger weapons of destruction, we should be thinking about getting more use out ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11712]]></link><description><![CDATA[Instead of trying to build newer and bigger weapons of destruction, we should be thinking about getting more use out of the ones we already have.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our military deserves leadership that matches their service and patriotism.

Every principle of selection, every separation connected with it that is not necessitated quite objectively by common work, local conditions, or family connections is of the greatest danger to a Christian community. When the way of intellectual or spiritual selection is taken, the human element always insinuates itself and robs the fellowship of its spiritual power and its effectiveness for the Church, and drives it into sectarianism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man's mind is like a store of idolatry and superstition; so much so that if a man believes his own ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man's mind is like a store of idolatry and superstition; so much so that if a man believes his own mind it is certain that he will forsake God and forge some idol in his own brain]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great men are true men, the men in whom nature has succeeded.

They have Christ, they have God, and they are satisfied. There can be no monotony in the contemplation and worship of the Infinite. Their great possession is unchangeable, but also inexhaustible; no change is possible where all is love and truth. The centre of the heavenly life is fixed and immovable, but the circumference may ever be advancing towards the centre, the saints may ever be drawing nearer and nearer to the goal which they can never reach. There may be progress in knowledge, progress in enjoyment, progress in service -- a progress which at every point will open up new wonders, new opportunities, new outlooks into a greater future, and as that future unfolds itself, new and unexpected scopes for the energies of redeemed men, new ways of fellowship with God in Christ, new companionships with the good and great of past generations, and with angelic beings who have watched and guarded us in life, and rejoiced over our repentance, and are ready to welcome us into the eternal mansions, and will share our worship and our work, our service and our joy, in the ages to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just once I would like to persuade the audience not to wear any article of blue denim.
