Growth in goodness does not, therefore, necessarily imply increased happiness, on the contrary, it may mean greater unhappiness. And his unhappiness increasing in proportion to the elevation of his ethical standards, a man's end is either Buddha or suicide if he knows no God; while if he knows God, it is despair or that conversion which, having sobbed away its tears on the Father's breast, thence derives ever new strength to fight the battle of life, sure of the final victory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Electric telegraphs, printing, gas, Tobacco, balloons, and steam,  Are little events that have come to pass   Since ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Electric telegraphs, printing, gas, Tobacco, balloons, and steam,  Are little events that have come to pass   Since the days of the old regime.    And, spite of Lempriere's dazzling page,     I'd give--though it might seem bold--      A hundred years of the Golden Age       For a year of the Age of Gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4002]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a lot of confusion in the marketplace.

They can't, He said, or they could not live as they are doing. Some of them are so anxious and worried, with all God's care and strength and love to lean against! They cannot know of it, and be so fidgety and nervous as they are. Some of them are afraid. Their consciences have drawn so grim a picture of Him that fearfully they shrink out of His presence, wish there were not God! Frightened of God, with His free and full and eager forgiveness, with His incredible generosity, with His compassionate heart that nobody can sour into illwill, do what he may. And even the best of them are not quite sure. Their faith at most is but a timorous hope, and a trembling perhaps; no more. Often in the Synagogue He had watched them sobbing out their penitential psalms and begging God to turn from anger and be gracious toward them... And it amazed Christ. Look at His sun, He cries, how it streams down in all its midday fullness on the most unworthy, and at the rain, how it falls healingly upon the fields of the least grateful, and how He keeps thrusting His benefits and blessings into the most soiled hands, loading the most impossible people with His kindnesses. If only I could make them see God as He really is: if only they could realize that He is their Father, that what their own child is to them, that, and far more, each of them is to Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not allow the money to drive the train.

He reaches out to foreigners who are beyond the borders of the "Israel of God". He seeks the release of captives, prisoners, and slaves. He denounces the scribes and religious leaders who "devour the houses of widows". Despite his well-known requirement of loyalty that surpasses family ties, he insists that a man put the care of his own parents ahead of his obligations to his religion. His treatment of women is radically opposed to the strictures of that day. He exhibits sympathy and understanding toward children. He operates an out-patient clinic wherever he happens to be. He insists upon justice as the basis for everyday dealings between citizens. The social teaching of parables like "the good Samaritan" and incidents such as the encounter with the rich young ruler have had an effect upon his followers that cannot easily be measured. If one summary statement of Jesus' ethics can be made, it is that love of God is best shown by love of fellow men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh my God, you guys, I seriously do not have a speech prepared whatsoever.
