This is testimony, the apostolic testimony, and this, with the energy of love, is the missionary motive. The insistent task of missionary education and responsibility is to engender this motive throughout the Church, a task that can only be accomplished as men are confronted anew with the message of the Bible and with its supreme and central story, the story of the cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Regarding life, the wisest men of all ages have judged alike: it is worthless.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63619]]></link><description><![CDATA[Regarding life, the wisest men of all ages have judged alike: it is worthless.rn]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was not born under a rhyming planet. -Much Ado about Nothing.

It may be that today the philosopher is honouring the Name af God when he insists that we should know what we mean when we utter our religious language and that we should be ready to have that meaning tested. It may be that other philosophers hallow the Name when they refuse to allow us to withdraw it to some supernatural realm, but insist on wrestling with the unknown God in the agony and joy of existence, crying with Jacob, "Tell me, I pray thee, thy Name." And is not the scientist honouring the Name when he patiently and obediently follows where the evidence leads? Or the social scientist when he asks us to understand what is before we begin pronouncing what ought to be? God does not spend all His time in Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am the cygnet to this pale faint swan, Who chants a doleful hymn to his own death,  And ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58459]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am the cygnet to this pale faint swan, Who chants a doleful hymn to his own death,  And from the organ-pipe of fraity sings   His soul and body to their lasting rest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here is the devil-and-all to pay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12141]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here is the devil-and-all to pay.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus we see, too, in the world that some persons assimilate only what is ugly and evil from the same ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8713]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thus we see, too, in the world that some persons assimilate only what is ugly and evil from the same moral circumstances which supply good and beautiful results--the fragrance of celestial flowers--to the daily life of others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Last, but by no means least, courage--moral courage, the courage of one's convictions, the courage to see things through.
