Jesus is more than a religious genius, such as George Fox, and more than a holy man, such as the lovable Lana in Kipling's Kim. He himself knows that he is more. The Gospel story is a tree rooted in the familiar soil of time and sense; but its roots go down into the Abyss and its branches fill the Heavens; given to us in terms of a country in the Eastern Mediterranean no bigger than Wales, during the Roman Principate of Tiberius Caesar in the first century of our era, its range is universal; it is on the scale of eternity. God's presence and his very Self were made manifest in the words and works of this Man. In short, the Man Christ Jesus has the decisive place in man's ageless relationship with God. He is what God means by 'Man'. He is what man means by 'God'.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wealth is like rheume, it falles on the weakest parts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50048]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wealth is like rheume, it falles on the weakest parts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[During our lives we're faced with so many elements as well, we experience so many setbacks, and fight such a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12251]]></link><description><![CDATA[During our lives we're faced with so many elements as well, we experience so many setbacks, and fight such a hand-to-hand battle with failure, head down in the rain, just trying to stay upright and have a little hope.

For a long time the Farmer, brandishing an empty sling, chased them away by the terror he inspired; but when the birds found that the sling was only swung in the air, they ceased to take any notice of it and would not move. The Farmer, on seeing this, charged his sling with stones, and killed a great number. The remaining birds at once forsook his fields, crying to each other, It is time for us to be off to Liliput: for this man is no longer content to scare us, but begins to show us in earnest what he can do. If words suffice not, blows must follow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Show me a good loser and I'll show you an idiot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25561]]></link><description><![CDATA[Show me a good loser and I'll show you an idiot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25561</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sin brought death, and death will disappear with the disappearance of sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sin brought death, and death will disappear with the disappearance of sin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The individual is foolish; the multitude, for the moment is foolish, when they act without deliberation; but the species is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52454]]></link><description><![CDATA[The individual is foolish; the multitude, for the moment is foolish, when they act without deliberation; but the species is wise, and, when time is given to it, as a species it always acts right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Little by little one walks far ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12116]]></link><description><![CDATA[Little by little one walks far]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man hoards himself when he has nothing to give away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44247]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man hoards himself when he has nothing to give away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a coherent plan to the universe, though I don't know what it's a plan for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60199]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a coherent plan to the universe, though I don't know what it's a plan for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The smarter the journalists are, the better off society is.
