A Janus-faced entity who, looking inward, sees himself as a self-contained unique whole, looking outward as a dependent part. His self-assertive tendency is the dynamic manifestation of his unique wholeness, his autonomy and independence as a holon. Its equally universal antagonist, the integrative tendency, expresses his dependence on the larger whole to which he belongs: his 'part-ness.'.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You never find yourself until you face the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2072]]></link><description><![CDATA[You never find yourself until you face the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2072</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ann, Ann! Come! quick as you can!  There's a fish that talks   In the frying-pan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16069]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ann, Ann! Come! quick as you can!  There's a fish that talks   In the frying-pan.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back When gold and silver becks me to come on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back When gold and silver becks me to come on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Self-will so ardent and active that it will break a world to pieces to make a stool to sit on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Self-will so ardent and active that it will break a world to pieces to make a stool to sit on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An entrepreneur tends to bite off a little more than he can chew hoping he'll quickly learn how to chew ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21998]]></link><description><![CDATA[An entrepreneur tends to bite off a little more than he can chew hoping he'll quickly learn how to chew it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The holydays of joy are the vigils of sorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51024]]></link><description><![CDATA[The holydays of joy are the vigils of sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clinton lied.

Repeatedly, the light has shone forth in the darkness, held aloft by hands that perished in the destruction of the institution that failed. Christians tend to defend the institution of their own creation with tenacity. It is institutional Christianity that has often shackled the Church... Many of the missionary institutions of the Church are expendable. They should always be treated as expendable.  ... Leonard M. Outerbridge, The Lost Churches of China July 24, 1996 Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  Men stand much upon the title of 'orthodox', by which is usually understood, not believing the doctrine of Christ or His apostles, but such opinions as are in vogue among such a party, such systems of divinity as have been compiled in haste by those whom we have in admiration; and whatever is not consonant to these little bodies of divinity, tho' possibly it agree well enough with the Word of God, is error and heresy; and whoever maintains it can hardly pass for a Christian among some angry and perverse people. I do not intend to plead for any error, but I would not have Christianity chiefly measured by matters of opinion. I know no such error and heresy as a wicked life... Of the two, I have more hopes of him that denies the divinity of Christ and lives otherwise soberly and righteously and godly in the world, than of the man who owns Christ to be the Son of God and lives like a child of the devil.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took quite a while to get going and to secure some level of funding.
