Fear is nobler than sensuality. Fear is better than no God, better than a god made with hands. In that fear lay deep hidden the sense of the infinite. The worship of fear is true, though very low; and though not acceptable to God in itself -- for only the worship of spirit and of truth is acceptable to him -- yet even in His sight it is precious. For he regards men not as they are merely, but as they shall be; not as they shall be merely, but as they are now growing, or capable of growing, towards that image after which He made them that they might grow to it. Therefore a thousand stages, each in itself all but valueless, are of inestimable worth as the necessary and connected gradations of an infinite progress. A condition which of declension would indicate a devil, may of growth indicate a saint.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're beefing up our rehab services for the coming years, including cardiac rehab. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32885]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're beefing up our rehab services for the coming years, including cardiac rehab.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The NeXT Computer: The hardware makes it a PC, the software makes it a workstation, the unit sales makes it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9407]]></link><description><![CDATA[The NeXT Computer: The hardware makes it a PC, the software makes it a workstation, the unit sales makes it a mainframe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember tonight.. for it is the beginning of always. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember tonight.. for it is the beginning of always.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I sit here and think, with more than a little astonishment, that I have been writing and publishing Science Fiction ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36752]]></link><description><![CDATA[I sit here and think, with more than a little astonishment, that I have been writing and publishing Science Fiction now for just three-eighths of a century.
