The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus.

Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[there's nothing to go back to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40062]]></link><description><![CDATA[there's nothing to go back to.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Television is the literature of the illiterate, the culture of the low-brow, the wealth of the poor, the privilage of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58834]]></link><description><![CDATA[Television is the literature of the illiterate, the culture of the low-brow, the wealth of the poor, the privilage of the underprivilaged, the exclusive club of the excluded masses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I went from a barber to cattleman, out of cattle into horses.
