It may fill him with a self-righteousness which rejoices in its own superiority to those who have had no like experience. It may move a man to a Pharisaic self-isolation. There have in fact been not a few so-called conversions as a result of which a man has left the Church to belong to some smaller and holier body. The plain truth is that such a one should very seriously examine himself, if he finds what he regards as his Christian experience separating him from his fellow-men, or his fellow-Christians.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let the sun shine in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46993]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let the sun shine in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46993</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want you to start a crusade in you life -- to dare to be your best. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22045]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want you to start a crusade in you life -- to dare to be your best.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Night was our friend, our leader was Despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Night was our friend, our leader was Despair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Johann Sebastian Bach, musician, 1750   Experience makes us see an enormous difference between piety and goodness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7522]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Johann Sebastian Bach, musician, 1750   Experience makes us see an enormous difference between piety and goodness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If any man shall have ears to hear, let him hear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48580]]></link><description><![CDATA[If any man shall have ears to hear, let him hear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I did was pour out about a gallon of Chanel Number Five and put a burning wedding invitation to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53177]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I did was pour out about a gallon of Chanel Number Five and put a burning wedding invitation to it, and boom, I'm recycling.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a new experience for me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36701]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a new experience for me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Pandita Mary Ramabai, Translator of the Scriptures, 1922   Ultimate confidence in the goodness of life cannot ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Pandita Mary Ramabai, Translator of the Scriptures, 1922   Ultimate confidence in the goodness of life cannot rest upon confidence in the goodness of man. If that is where it rests, it is an optimism which will suffer ultimate disillusionment. Romanticism will be transmuted into cynicism, as it has always been in the world's history. The faith of a Christian is something quite different from this optimism. It is trust in God, in a good God who created a good world, though the world is not now good; in a good God, powerful and good enough finally to destroy the evil that men do and redeem them of their sins. This kind of faith is not optimism. It does not, in fact, arise until optimism breaks down and men cease to trust in themselves that they are righteous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Morgan does that basically every game.

When I find that so much of my life has stolen unprofitably away, and that I can descry by retrospection scarcely a few single days properly and vigorously employed, why do I yet try to resolve again? I try, because reformation is necessary and despair is criminal. I try, in humble hope of the help of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8072</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There ought to be a system of manners in every nation which a well-formed mind would be disposed to relish. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10236]]></link><description><![CDATA[There ought to be a system of manners in every nation which a well-formed mind would be disposed to relish.

There is something more true in his denunciation of idolatry as sin than in our denial that it is possible for a man to worship an idol, or in our suggestion that all idolatry is only a road to spiritual worship of the one true God... One day, I think, we shall return to these stern doctrines, realizing in them a truth more profound than we now know, and then we shall preach them with conviction, and, being convinced ourselves, we shall convince others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love, hope, fear, faith--these make humanity; These are its sign and note and character. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19949]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love, hope, fear, faith--these make humanity; These are its sign and note and character.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dodgerest of all the dodgers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43643]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dodgerest of all the dodgers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been dying for twenty years, now I am going to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20602]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have been dying for twenty years, now I am going to live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Gospel is not presented to mankind as an argument about religious principles.
