Not along this track lies the path of moral progress. Christianity says: face the evil once for all, and disown it. Then quiet the spirit in the presence of God. Let His perfections fill the field of vision. In particular, let the concrete embodiment of the goodness of God in Christ attract and absorb the gaze of the soul. Here is the righteousness, not as a fixed and abstract ideal, but in a living human person. The righteousness of Christ is a real achievement of God's own Spirit in man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in only one thing: liberty; but I do not believe in liberty enough to want to force it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24742]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in only one thing: liberty; but I do not believe in liberty enough to want to force it upon anyone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deals are my art form.

These paintings, these poems, and these demonstrations... are the expression of men who are struggling with their appalling lostness. Dare we laugh at such things? Dare we feel superior when we view their tortured expressions in their art? Christians should stop laughing and take such men seriously. Then we shall have the right to speak again to our generation. These men are dying while they live, yet where is our compassion for them? There is nothing more ugly than an orthodoxy without understanding or without compassion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a certain Slant of light, Winter Afternoons--  That oppresses, like the Heft   Of Cathedral Tunes-- ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61716]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's a certain Slant of light, Winter Afternoons--  That oppresses, like the Heft   Of Cathedral Tunes--]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I discovered my wife in bed with another man, and I was crushed.
