It was unkind to speak to men like this, for such a cheap offer could only leave them bewildered and tempt them from the way to which they had been called by Christ. Having laid hold on cheap grace, they were barred forever from the knowledge of costly grace. Deceived and weakened, men felt that they were strong now that they were in possession of this cheap grace -- whereas they had in fact lost the power to live the life of discipleship and obedience. The word of cheap grace has been the ruin of more Christians than any commandment of works.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was unbelievably difficult to get it made.

A whole life long didst thou suffer that I too might be saved; and yet thy suffering is not yet at an end; but this too wilt thou endure, saving and redeeming me, this patient suffering of having to do with me, I who so often go astray from the right path, or even when I remained on the straight path stumbled along it or crept so slowly along the right path. Infinite patience, suffering of infinite patience. How many times have I not been impatient, wished to give up and forsake everything; wished to take the terribly easy way out, despair: but thou didst not lose patience. Oh, I cannot say what thy chosen servant says: that he filled up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in his flesh; no, I can only say that I increased thy sufferings, added new ones to those which thou didst once suffer in order to save me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it and wiser than the one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it and wiser than the one that comes after it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The getting out of doors is the greatest part of the journey. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48929]]></link><description><![CDATA[The getting out of doors is the greatest part of the journey.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26631]]></link><description><![CDATA[The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bottom line is that no matter what we do, the site will be clean when we are done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33819]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bottom line is that no matter what we do, the site will be clean when we are done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33819</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41193]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The long term versus the short term argument is one used by losers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44316]]></link><description><![CDATA[The long term versus the short term argument is one used by losers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With spots quadrangular of diamond form, Ensanguined hearts, clubs typical of strife,  And spades, the emblems of untimely graves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5237]]></link><description><![CDATA[With spots quadrangular of diamond form, Ensanguined hearts, clubs typical of strife,  And spades, the emblems of untimely graves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cocaine isn't habit-forming.
