You can?t do that. Even though you?re up 14 at the half, you have to keep building on the lead. You can?t let a team hang around. We could have been up by 22.

The two ideas of Free-will and Divine Sovereignty can not be reconciled in our own minds, but that does not prevent them from being reconciled in God's mind. We measure Him by our own intellectual standard if we think otherwise. And so our solution of the problem of Free-will and of the problems of history and of individual salvation must finally lie in the full acceptance and realisation of what is implied by the infinity and the omniscience of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is only when they go wrong that machines remind you how powerful they are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27896]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is only when they go wrong that machines remind you how powerful they are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a Law that man should love his neighbor as himself.

What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To err is human. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14171]]></link><description><![CDATA[To err is human.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never had a sore arm or sore leg in my life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34356]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never had a sore arm or sore leg in my life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life isn't all beer and skittles; but beer and skittles or something better of the same sort, must form a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50406]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life isn't all beer and skittles; but beer and skittles or something better of the same sort, must form a good part of every Englishman's education.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3246]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A buddy of mine, [Atlanta rookie] Jeff Francoeur, when he hit his first home run, I saw them give him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30634]]></link><description><![CDATA[A buddy of mine, [Atlanta rookie] Jeff Francoeur, when he hit his first home run, I saw them give him the silent treatment and ignore him.
