As the Christian life is, above all things, a state of union with Christ, and of union of his followers with one another, love of the brethren is inseparable from love of God. Resentment toward any human being cannot exist in the same heart with love to God. The personal relationship to Christ can only be realized when one has "come to himself" as a member of His Body, the Christian fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we don't knock it back now it's just going to get worse and worse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33558]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we don't knock it back now it's just going to get worse and worse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have to give people something to dream on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64459]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have to give people something to dream on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His anger is easily excited and appeased, and he changes from hour to hour. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50258]]></link><description><![CDATA[His anger is easily excited and appeased, and he changes from hour to hour.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride has a greater share than goodness of heart in the remonstrances we make to those who are guilty of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7363]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride has a greater share than goodness of heart in the remonstrances we make to those who are guilty of faults; we reprove, not so much with a view to correcting them, as to persuade them that we are exempt from those faults ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No more of that, Hal, an thou lovest me! -King Henry IV.

It is not its task to tell people what ends they should aim at. It is a science of the means to be applied for attainment of ends chosen, not, to be sure, a science of the choosing of ends. Ultimate decisions, the valuations and the choosing of ends, are beyond the scope of any science. Science never tells a man how he should act; it merely shows how a man must act if he wants to attain definite ends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The revulsion from an unwanted self, and the impulse to forget it, mask it, slough it off and lose it, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56870]]></link><description><![CDATA[The revulsion from an unwanted self, and the impulse to forget it, mask it, slough it off and lose it, produce both a readiness to sacrifice the self and a willingness to dissolve it by losing one's individual distinctness in a compact collective whole.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Institutions can never conserve without betraying the movements from which they proceed.

The institution is static, whereas its parent movement has been dynamic; it confines men within its limits, while the movement had liberated them from the bondage of institutions; it looks to the past, [although] the movement had pointed forward. Though in content the institution resembles the dynamic epoch whence it proceeded, in spirit it is like the [state] before the revolution. So the Christian church, after the early period, often seemed more closely related in attitude to the Jewish synagogue and the Roman state than to the age of Christ and his apostles; its creed was often more like a system of philosophy than like the living gospel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are sitting on the next wave of technological innovation, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31560]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are sitting on the next wave of technological innovation,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you must flie, flie well. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49523]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you must flie, flie well.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ascension  If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ascension  If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning -- just as, if there were no light in the universe, and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know that it was dark.
