But what is Repentance? Not the last and noblest and most refined achievement of the righteousness of men in the service of God, but the first elemental act of the righteousness of God in the service of men; the work that God has written in their hearts and which, because it is from God and not from men, occasions joy in heaven; that looking forward to God, and to Him only, which is recognized only by God and by God Himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the lone shielding on the misty island Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas--  But still the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25951]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the lone shielding on the misty island Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas--  But still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland,   And we in dreams behold the Hebrides.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing contributes so much to tranquilizing the mind as a steadypurpose-a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21710]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing contributes so much to tranquilizing the mind as a steadypurpose-a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people go to priests;

But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59171]]></link><description><![CDATA[Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People are taking some comfort in results and a feeling that the economy is getting better, but there's still some ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36837]]></link><description><![CDATA[People are taking some comfort in results and a feeling that the economy is getting better, but there's still some caution.

In this I can act. And you may well say "act". For what I call "myself" (for all practical, everyday purposes) is also a dramatic construction; memories, glimpses in the shavinglass, and snatches of the very fallible activity called "introspection", are the principal ingredients. Normally I call this construction "me"' and the stage set "the real world". Now the moment of prayer is for me -- or involves for me as its condition -- the awareness, the reawakened awareness, that this "real world" and "real self" are very far from being rock-bottom realities. I cannot, in the flesh, leave the stage, either to go behind the scenes or to take my seat in the pit; but I can remember that these regions exist. And I also remember that my apparent self -- this clown or hero or super -- under his grease-paint is a real person with an off-stage life. The dramatic person could not tread the stage unless he concealed a real person: unless the real and unknown I existed, I would not even make mistakes about the imagined me. And in prayer this real I struggles to speak, for once, from his real being, and to address, for once, not the other actors, but -- what shall I call Him? The Author, for He invented us all? The Producer, for He controls all? Or the Audience, for He watches, and will judge, the performance?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must learn to tailor our concepts to fit reality, instead of trying to stuff reality into our concepts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14510]]></link><description><![CDATA[We must learn to tailor our concepts to fit reality, instead of trying to stuff reality into our concepts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a dignity in dying that doctors should not dare to deny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11412]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a dignity in dying that doctors should not dare to deny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Freedom all solace to man gives: He lives at ease that freely lives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46335]]></link><description><![CDATA[Freedom all solace to man gives: He lives at ease that freely lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is born to work and prosper and not to rest and rust. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62169]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is born to work and prosper and not to rest and rust.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never tempted her with word too large, But, as a brother to his sister, show'd Bashful sincerity and comely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55450]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never tempted her with word too large, But, as a brother to his sister, show'd Bashful sincerity and comely love. -Much Ado about Nothing.
