And indeed since it is true, it is the very limit of suffering.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To threaten people and to accuse a country because a newspaper has published some cartoons or some information that could ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29417]]></link><description><![CDATA[To threaten people and to accuse a country because a newspaper has published some cartoons or some information that could be interpreted as offensive for one group or another is completely inappropriate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men of great conversational powers almost universally practise a sort of lively sophistry and exaggeration which deceives for the moment ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men of great conversational powers almost universally practise a sort of lively sophistry and exaggeration which deceives for the moment both themselves and their auditors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of praise a mere glutton, he swallow'd what came, And the puff a dunce, he mistook it for fame;  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of praise a mere glutton, he swallow'd what came, And the puff a dunce, he mistook it for fame;  Till his relish grown callous, almost to displease,   Who pepper'd the highest was surest to please.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Administration’s willingness to consistently abandon the truth has done great damage.

It is important to assert this, because if we do not do so, the limit which we know apart from Christ becomes determinative of our outlook. That limit is death -- the death of the individual, and the death of the social structure in which his corporate personality is embodied. When these are the only limits that men know, then they are left in a hopeless alternation between hope for an individual survival of death, which evacuates their corporate life of ultimate significance, and hope for the eternity of some social or political or cultural achievement, which evacuates personal existence of ultimate significance. This false alternation is overcome in Christ in whom we are brought into relation with the true limit -- a consummation of all things in which both the significance of each personal life and the significance of history as a whole are to be gathered up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   "Homesickness for the [One True Church]" is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8574]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   "Homesickness for the [One True Church]" is genuine and legitimate only in so far as it is a disquietude at the fact that we have lost and forgotten Christ, and with Him have lost the unity of the Church. Thus we must be on our guard, all along the line, lest the motives which stir us today lead us to a quest that looks past Him. Indeed, however rightful and urgent those motives are, we could well leave them out of our reckoning. We shall do well to realize that in themselves they are well-meaning but merely human desires, and that we can have no final certainty that they are rightful, no unanswerable claim for their fulfillment. Unless we regard them with a measure of holy indifference, we are ill placed for a quest after the unity of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Experience shows that success is due less to ability than to zeal.
