But we do not ordinarily apply it to the best purposes.

And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I mean, they censor your work when they're scared of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39598]]></link><description><![CDATA[I mean, they censor your work when they're scared of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their jobs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22127]]></link><description><![CDATA[Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their jobs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is a king? a man condemn'd to bear The public burthen of the nation's care. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54494]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is a king? a man condemn'd to bear The public burthen of the nation's care.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't try to describe the future.

Perhaps someone will interpose here that such moderation is so uniformly absent from any lawsuit that it would be a miracle if any such were found.
