But neither the fundamental doctrine of Christianity nor that of the powers and effects of matter and motion seems to be more than an epicycle ... of the great and universal system of God's contrivances, and makes but a part of the more general theory of things, knowable by the light of nature, improved by the information of the scriptures: so that both these doctrines... seem to be but members of the universal hypothesis, whose objects I conceive to be the natural counsels, and works of God, so far as they are discoverable by us in this life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our patience wasn't there and the tempo and continuity in our offense was off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31277]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our patience wasn't there and the tempo and continuity in our offense was off.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471   Truth, not eloquence, is to be sought for in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471   Truth, not eloquence, is to be sought for in Holy Scripture. Each part of the Scripture is to be read with the same Spirit wherewith it was written. We should rather search after profit in Scriptures, than subtilty of speech. We ought to read plain and devout books as willingly as high and profound. Let not the authority of the writer offend thee, whether he be of great or small learning; but let the love of pure truth draw thee to read. Search not who spoke this or that, but mark what is spoken.
