Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.  ... Jeremy Taylor  August 14, 2000 Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To have done, is to hang Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail  In monumental mockery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51276]]></link><description><![CDATA[To have done, is to hang Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail  In monumental mockery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But here by the mill the castled clouds Mocked themselves in the dizzy water. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8910]]></link><description><![CDATA[But here by the mill the castled clouds Mocked themselves in the dizzy water.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Women and cats do as they damned well please, and men and dogs had best learn to live with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59017]]></link><description><![CDATA[Women and cats do as they damned well please, and men and dogs had best learn to live with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship is the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe witha person having neither to weigh thoughts or measure words, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22661]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship is the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe witha person having neither to weigh thoughts or measure words, but pouringall right out just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that afaithful friendly hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keepingand, with a breath of comfort, blow the rest away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wright brothers flew through the smoke screen of impossibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20657]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Wright brothers flew through the smoke screen of impossibility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have perhaps a natural fear of ends.
