For to men there is a difference of joy and of sorrow, but for thee, O Lord, there is no difference in these things; everything that comes from thee is a good and perfect gift.   ... Søren Kierkegaard August 16, 2000   By giving to Jesus Christ, the Man who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, this historical personality, the name of Lord, the Saviour, we renounce all mysticism. For mysticism in the strict sense exists only where one soars above the sphere of history, and where in place of the Mediator and the historical event are put the inner word of God, the inner motions of the soul, in order to reach immediacy between soul and God, and, in the end, the identity of both. But while it is necessary to safeguard the Christian message of the Holy Spirit from the mystical misunderstanding by calling attention to its relation to Jesus Christ, it is necessary on the other hand to safeguard the message of Jesus Christ and His work from the orthodox and rationalist misunderstanding by emphasizing that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord but by the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People in the computer industry use the term 'user,' which to them means 'idiot.'. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9528]]></link><description><![CDATA[People in the computer industry use the term 'user,' which to them means 'idiot.'.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modern jazz: Variations on a non-existent theme ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23135]]></link><description><![CDATA[Modern jazz: Variations on a non-existent theme]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55795]]></link><description><![CDATA[To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess. -King John.

All we can do is believe or disbelieve; to give it in our life the place of the final reality to which everything else must give way, or to refuse it that place. Many people ... would like to talk the Word of God over. It raises in their minds various questions they would willingly discuss. It has aspects of interest and of difficulty which call for consideration; and so on. Perhaps there are some that confusedly shield themselves against the responsibilities of faith and unbelief by such thoughts. All that such thoughts prove, however, is that those who cherish them have never yet realized that what we are dealing with in the Gospel is GOD. When God speaks in Christ, He reveals His gracious will without qualification. And without qualification, we have to believe in it, or refuse to believe, and so decide the controversy between ourselves and Him. God has not come into the world in Christ ... to be talked about, but to become the supreme reality on the life of men, or to be excluded from that place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One graine fills not a sacke, but helpes his fellowes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49692]]></link><description><![CDATA[One graine fills not a sacke, but helpes his fellowes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People of genius whenever they are faced with misfortune find resources within themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22539]]></link><description><![CDATA[People of genius whenever they are faced with misfortune find resources within themselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Calamity is man's true touchstone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44142]]></link><description><![CDATA[Calamity is man's true touchstone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44142</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greater the difficulty, the greater the glory. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47582]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greater the difficulty, the greater the glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We dissect nature along lines laid down by our native language.

And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than "politicians" think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Writing is making sense of life.
