You pull and you pull, but you can't get the rock out of the ground. So you give it a good kick, but you lose your balance and go skidding down the hill toward the pool. Then out comes a big Hawaiian man who was screwing his wife beside the pool because they thought it was real pretty. He tells you to get out of there, but you start faking it, like you're talking Hawaiian, and then he gets mad and chases you...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought we made it real hard for them to enter the zone.

In the end, the first step of obedience proves to be an act of faith in the word of Christ. But we should completely misunderstand the nature of grace if we were to suppose that there was no need to take the first-step, because faith was already there. Against that, we must boldly assert that the step of obedience must be taken before faith can be possible.

The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25827]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60510]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest fish he ever caught were those that got away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16109]]></link><description><![CDATA[The biggest fish he ever caught were those that got away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world.
