For even they are sure that to live for nothing higher than oneself is to lose life; that life, to be called life, can be found only in serving something bigger than one's personal interests; something that crowds these out of mind and heart, till one forgets about them and lives wholly, and without exception, for that other, worthier thing... It is long since Aristotle told us that only barbarians have as their ideal the wish to live as they please, and to do what they like. And the New Testament gravely sets us down before the Cross, and bids us gaze, and still gaze, and keep gazing, till the fact has soaked itself into our minds that that, not less than that, is now the standard set us, and that whatever in our lives clashes with that is sin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O child!

They say that it makes us so free that it cannot be the truth. To them it is like believing in fairyland to believe in such freedom as we enjoy. It is like believing in men with wings to entertain the fancy of men with wills. It is like accepting a fable about a squirrel in conversation with a mountain to believe in a man who is free to ask or a God who is free to answer. This is a manly and a rational negation, for which I for one shall always show respect. But I decline to show any respect for those who first of all clip the bird and cage the squirrel, rivet the chains and refuse the freedom, close all the doors of the cosmic prison on us with a clang of eternal iron, tell us that our emancipation is a dream and our dungeon a necessity; and then calmly turn round and tell us they have a freer thought and a more liberal theology.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7592</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Melissa is a very versatile player.

The shared life of the Christian community must become a context in which the differing gifts can be used for each other. There is much still to be learned about this. Are the homes of married Christians an added support for the single? Is the availability of the single Christian put at the disposal of his married friends, for "babysitting" duties and the like. And what is true of the mutual support of married and single needs to be true in a wider way of the care exercised by the married and the single for each other, so that nobody's home life becomes completely cut off from support and help.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That scared a lot of people and they sold their units cheaply. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41199]]></link><description><![CDATA[That scared a lot of people and they sold their units cheaply.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66406]]></link><description><![CDATA[People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these days is to sign a contract, a check, or an autograph.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enthusiasm is everything.
