Not by making vast claims for himself, though such claims were implicit. His authority seemed to reside in what he was and what he did rather than in what he specifically claimed to be. Especially in Mark's Gospel there is an elusive quality about his authority, the mystery of the hidden Messiah. His authority was at the same time most deeply hidden and most clearly expressed by his servanthood... The more the Church in its life shows forth the character of the Servant, the more will its teaching bear the marks of the authority of the Servant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Long years must pass before the truths we have made for ourselves become our very flesh. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63491]]></link><description><![CDATA[Long years must pass before the truths we have made for ourselves become our very flesh.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43223]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now with my friend I desire not to share or participate, but to engross his sorrows, that, by making them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now with my friend I desire not to share or participate, but to engross his sorrows, that, by making them mine own, I may more easily discuss them; for in mine own reason, and within myself, I can command that which I cannot entreat without myself, and within the circle of another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You must pay the price if you wish to secure the blessing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64828]]></link><description><![CDATA[You must pay the price if you wish to secure the blessing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is perpetual, and only the hearing is intermittent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19002]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is perpetual, and only the hearing is intermittent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Foreign slaves, as soon as they come within the limits of Gaul, that moment they are free. [Lat., Servi peregrini, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56577]]></link><description><![CDATA[Foreign slaves, as soon as they come within the limits of Gaul, that moment they are free. [Lat., Servi peregrini, ut primum Galliae fines penetraverint eodem momento liberi sunt.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you start to think about your physical or moral condition, you usually find that you are sick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20461]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you start to think about your physical or moral condition, you usually find that you are sick.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accuracy is to a newspaper what virtue is to a lady, but a newspaper can always print a retraction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accuracy is to a newspaper what virtue is to a lady, but a newspaper can always print a retraction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a state of perfect peace with God which can be attained under imperfect obedience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7395]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a state of perfect peace with God which can be attained under imperfect obedience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7395</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is no disgrace to start all over.

Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's ok though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type.. I'm like, "hey girl, magenta!" and she's like, "oh, you mean purple!" and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, "no - I want magenta!"]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To become a thoroughly good man is the best prescription for keeping a sound mind and a sound body. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1302]]></link><description><![CDATA[To become a thoroughly good man is the best prescription for keeping a sound mind and a sound body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace proposals unaccompanied by a sworn covenant indicate a plot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace proposals unaccompanied by a sworn covenant indicate a plot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most merciful thing in the world ... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27954]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most merciful thing in the world ... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire. [Fr., L'absence diminue ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/149]]></link><description><![CDATA[Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire. [Fr., L'absence diminue les mediocres passions et augmente les grandes, comme le vent eteint les bougies et allume le feu.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pitiful is the person who is afraid of taking risks.
