Every man is to work for his living. "If a man will not work, neither let him eat." But those who cannot work are to be provided for out of the common fund. Old and helpless persons who have relations of their own should, indeed, find support from them and not be forced to come upon the Church; but for the resourceless the Church must provide. And those who are rich and who earn more than enough to support their own families are to be willing contributors to the common fund. The love of money -- the desire to accumulate wealth -- is the root of every kind of evil. The relation of one to another is to be that of members in one body, in which, if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though throned in highest bliss Equal to God, and equally enjoying  God-like fruition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13926]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though throned in highest bliss Equal to God, and equally enjoying  God-like fruition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['What war?' said the Prime Minister sharply.

The argument from prophecy, on which the early apologists laid so much weight, was all ex post facto. No one beforehand could have conjectured a tenth of it. But without the background of Jewish prophet and psalmist, of Jewish national history, it would be hard to understand Jesus. If prophet and historian and legislator did not in type and enigma foretell in detail the story of his life, he was none the less their heir. None the less was he their heir in that he was not in bondage to his inheritance, but... a "minister not of the letter but of the spirit", and the whole of his activity lay "in newness of spirit". Without conjecturing what he might have been on another soil or of another stock--a type of guesswork always futile in history--we have to recognize the... immense spiritual wealth that lay ready to his hand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taxes are not levied for the benefit of the taxed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47255]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taxes are not levied for the benefit of the taxed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be a man's own fool is bad enough; but the vain man is everybody's. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16192]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be a man's own fool is bad enough; but the vain man is everybody's.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not good enough to rely on playing good offense or good defense.
