By individual depravity, I mean my own. I find it out in myself; or, rather, He who searcheth me and trieth my ways, finds it out in me. That sense of depravity implies the recognition of a law from which I have broken loose, of a Divine image which my character has not resembled. It is the law and the order which are universal. It is this character of Christ which is the true human character. It is easy enough to own to a general depravity; under cover of it, you and I would escape.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That second requirement is going to be hard to prove in a courtroom.

One day others will come who will do the same things better. And some day he will have been completely forgotten--even if he should have built the pyramids or the St. Gotthard tunnel or invented atomic fission. And one thing is even more certain: whether the achievement of a man's life is great or small, significant or insignificant, he will one day stand before his eternal judge, and everything that he has done and performed will be no more than a mole hill, and then he will have nothing better to do than hope for something he has not earned: not for a crown, but quite simply for gracious judgment which he has not deserved. That is the only thing that will count then, achievement or not. "My kindness shall not depart from you." By this man lives. By this alone can he live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Us sing and dance, make faces and give flower bouquets, trying to be loved.

It reveals a split personality in which faith is "observed" and appraised, thus negating that unity born of a dying-unto-self, which is the definition of faith. To "value" faith is to turn it into a metaphysical magic, the advantages of which ought to be reserved for a spiritual elite.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've had women who move to the towns I'm living in, just pack up and move there, never even met ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35707]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've had women who move to the towns I'm living in, just pack up and move there, never even met 'em before, 'cause they heard I lived there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two of the cruelest, most primitive punishments our town deals out to those who fall from favor are the empty ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52573]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two of the cruelest, most primitive punishments our town deals out to those who fall from favor are the empty mailbox and the silent telephone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That man is worthless who knows how to receive a favor, but not how to return one. [Lat., Nam improbus ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15480]]></link><description><![CDATA[That man is worthless who knows how to receive a favor, but not how to return one. [Lat., Nam improbus est homo qui beneficium scit sumere et reddere nescit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15480</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They that know one another salute a farre off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49966]]></link><description><![CDATA[They that know one another salute a farre off.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some of them seem to convince themselves that this is a relationship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39761]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some of them seem to convince themselves that this is a relationship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet smelt roast meat, beheld a huge fire shine, And cooks in motion with their clean arms bared. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet smelt roast meat, beheld a huge fire shine, And cooks in motion with their clean arms bared.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Barnabas the Apostle  It is obvious ... that there are many lay people who can counsel more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7404]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Barnabas the Apostle  It is obvious ... that there are many lay people who can counsel more effectively than the minister can in such areas as adjusting to widowhood, coming to terms with advancing age, bringing principle to bear upon business decisions, because they have experience in these fields which the minister does not personally have. At the very least, they can add a note of reality to what the minister offers. In many cases, the group takes up where the individual counseling left off, supplementing it or even eliminating it entirely. I have been repeatedly thankful that a group was available to give steady guidance who had made a fresh start in Christian living, but who still had a long way to go; this has been especially true in cases of loneliness, moderate emotional instability, inability to understand others, and need of continued guidance in the use of prayer and the Bible and the accepting and giving of love. In the nature of the case, no amount of individual counseling can fully deal with these needs. The "priesthood of all believers" becomes a recognized fact, with each person helping to open up for his neighbor the way to God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A prudent man should always follow in the footsteps of great men and imitate those who have been outstanding.
