One side of Christ's work will appeal most to one mind, another to another. The mistake that is often made by those who speak most about Christian experience is that they are so apt to insist upon everyone else's experience -- on penalty of its utter worthlessness -- being exactly the same as their own. The great thing is that we should be attracted by Christ in some way, that we should come to God in that spirit of penitence which Christ taught was the one condition of acceptance with Him, and with that steady purpose of amendment which is, as he always taught, a part of true penitence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We didn't come out focused. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42100]]></link><description><![CDATA[We didn't come out focused.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We'll therefore relish with content, Whate'er kind providence has sent,  Nor aim beyond our pow'r;   For, if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9942]]></link><description><![CDATA[We'll therefore relish with content, Whate'er kind providence has sent,  Nor aim beyond our pow'r;   For, if our stock be very small,    'Tis prudent to enjoy it all,     Nor lose the present hour.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The attempt to force human beings to despise themselves is what I call hell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66654]]></link><description><![CDATA[The attempt to force human beings to despise themselves is what I call hell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It’s the idea that people living close to nature tend to be noble.

This faith, once given, proved to be -- like the Person who gave rise to it -- essentially self-authenticating. And ever since, the Church has looked to the Cross, a symbol of weakness, as its unique source of power in preaching the Gospel, its authority both to teach and to preach has been of this kind. No amount of liaison between the Church and the source of any other authority, political or moral, must be allowed to obscure the simplicity -- and the mystery -- of the authority of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you marry a man who cheats on his wife, you'll be married to a man who cheats on his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5814]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you marry a man who cheats on his wife, you'll be married to a man who cheats on his wife.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The higher the sun ariseth, the less shadow doth he cast; even so the greater is the goodness, the less ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17869]]></link><description><![CDATA[The higher the sun ariseth, the less shadow doth he cast; even so the greater is the goodness, the less doth it covet praise; yet cannot avoid its rewards in honours.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Existence is a strange bargain.
