But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a woman and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called `falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discourage litigation.

(2) There is the danger of one-sidedness by accommodation to the particular tendencies of a particular age. (3) There is the danger of an arrested development, because ecclesiastical authority acting hastily or unguardedly solidifies the one-sidedness or undue accommodation of a particular moment of the Church into a premature and unjustifiable dogma. There is, I venture to think, for all these dangers one remedy, and one remedy only, and that the most old-fashioned; and yet it is with this that is bound up all that is most true, all that is most free, all that is most spiritual in the Church. The remedy to which I refer is the continual recurrence to the original pattern, the continual appeal to antiquity and Scripture. Such an appeal limits the dogmatic authority and in a sense the whole authority of the Church. But it is by the maintenance of this appeal, and only so, that you can safeguard what is, after all, the most important thing, that is, the real power of the Church to be true to its own best spirit, to reassert the original teaching in all its freedom and largeness of application, without being trammelled and contracted by the errors and narrownesses of particular periods.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Philosophy is the science which considers truth ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46482]]></link><description><![CDATA[Philosophy is the science which considers truth]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1798]]></link><description><![CDATA[Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All His glory and beauty come from within, and there He delights to dwell, His visits there are frequent, His ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6132]]></link><description><![CDATA[All His glory and beauty come from within, and there He delights to dwell, His visits there are frequent, His conversation sweet, His comforts refreshing; and His peace passing all understanding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of David, Bishop of Menevia, Patron of Wales, c.601  Is a mediator between the eternal spirit and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6619]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of David, Bishop of Menevia, Patron of Wales, c.601  Is a mediator between the eternal spirit and the finite an unreality, an intrusion? The mystic soul may impatiently think so, but the moral soul finds such mediation the way to reality; and the mystic experience is not quite trustworthy about reality. The pagan gods had no mediators, because they were not real or good gods; but the living God has a living Revealer. To know the living God is to know Christ; to know Christ is to know the living God. We do not know God by Christ but in Him. We find God when we find Christ; and in Christ alone we know and share his final purpose. Our last knowledge is not the contact of our person with a thing or a thought; it is intercourse of person and person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was pleased with representation on the committee.
