How things really are --- and always will be --- is neither all-evil nor all-good but deficient, inconsistent, inferior. Principles invite us to do something about the morass of contradictions in which we function morally. Principles invite us to clean up our act; to become intolerant of moral laxity and compromise and cowardice and the turning away from what is upsetting: that secret gnawing of the heart that tells us that what we are doing is not right, and so counsels us that we'd be better off just not thinking about it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The master in the art of living makes little distinction between hiswork and his play, his labor and his leisure, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21089]]></link><description><![CDATA[The master in the art of living makes little distinction between hiswork and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, hisinformation and his recreation, his love and his religion.

And Saint Paul, speaking of those that die with Christ, that they may live no longer to themselves, but to Him that died for them, does not mean this of monks only, but of Christians universally.  ... The Colloquies of Erasmus July 13, 1999  Do right, and God's recompense to you will be the power of doing more right. Give, and God's reward to you will be the spirit of giving more: a blessed spirit, for it is the Spirit of God Himself, whose Life is the blessedness of giving. Love, and God will pay you with the capacity of more love; for love is Heaven: love is God within you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My vagina can't give a monologue! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29931]]></link><description><![CDATA[My vagina can't give a monologue!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1355]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We seek peace, knowing that peace is the climate of freedom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45976]]></link><description><![CDATA[We seek peace, knowing that peace is the climate of freedom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You must not think, sir, to catch old birds with chaff. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4227]]></link><description><![CDATA[You must not think, sir, to catch old birds with chaff.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What women have to stand on squarely is not their ability to see the world in the way men see ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42076]]></link><description><![CDATA[What women have to stand on squarely is not their ability to see the world in the way men see it, but the importance and validity of their seeing it in some other way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the book of life's questions, the answers are not in the back. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21656]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the book of life's questions, the answers are not in the back.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21656</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When clouds are seen, wise men put on their cloaks; When great leaves fall, then winter is at hand;  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51514]]></link><description><![CDATA[When clouds are seen, wise men put on their cloaks; When great leaves fall, then winter is at hand;  When the sun sets, who doth not look for night?   Untimely storms makes men expect a dearth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man cannot go to Corinthum. [Lat., Non cuivis homini contingit adire Corinthum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8771]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man cannot go to Corinthum. [Lat., Non cuivis homini contingit adire Corinthum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6263]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at least of their meaning is this: that, in exegesis and exposition of Scripture and in building up our biblical theology from the fruits of our Bible study, we may not (1) deny, disregard, or arbitrarily relativize, anything that the biblical writers teach, nor (2) discount any of the practical implications for worship and service that their teaching carries, nor (3) cut the knot of any problem of Bible harmony, factual or theological, by allowing ourselves to assume that the inspired writers were not necessarily consistent either with themselves or with each other. It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25865]]></link><description><![CDATA[The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so that it touches not only those to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19017]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so that it touches not only those to whom you can give it easily, but also to those who need it so much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difference between a moral man and a man of honor is that the latter regrets a discreditable act even ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12215]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difference between a moral man and a man of honor is that the latter regrets a discreditable act even when it has worked.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To dance attendance on their lordships' pleasures. -King Henry VIII.
