But once, in the heart of an angry crowd, their enthusiasm soured suddenly into a growling muttering. He applied it confidently to a man who, under the inspiration of His friendship, had broken with his sorry past and his old selfish, unclean ways, and was doing what he could to put things right. Now that, He said, is what I call a saved man. Very solemnly He tells us that on the Day of Judgement we shall not be asked the questions we are expecting, but others that will puzzle and startle us. Those folk on the left hand were, as far as we hear, respectable folk; their business books were straight, their home life was kindly, they themselves were clean-living men and women: nothing whatever is laid to their charge excepting this, that they lived in a world needing their help and were too absorbed in something -- what it was, we are not told; it may have been their souls -- to give what aid they could.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love gives itself; it is not bought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25669]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love gives itself; it is not bought.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Their mothers had finally caught up to them and been proven right.

The truth about man is that his ground is not in himself but in God -- that his essence is not in self sufficient reason but in the Word, in the challenge of God, in responsibility, not in self-sufficiency. The true being of man is realized when he bases himself upon God's Word. Faith is then not an impossibility or a salto mortale [mortal leap], but that which is truly natural; and the real salto mortale (a mortal leap indeed!) is just the assertion of autonomy, self-sufficiency, God-likeness. [It is] through this usurped independence [that] man separates himself from God, and at the same time isolates himself from his fellows. Individualism is the necessary consequence of rational autonomy, just as love is the necessary consequence of faith.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many men build as cathedrals were built, the part nearest the ground finished; but that part which soars toward heaven, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many men build as cathedrals were built, the part nearest the ground finished; but that part which soars toward heaven, the turrets and the spires, forever incomplete.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Profit is the ignition system of our economic engine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48342]]></link><description><![CDATA[Profit is the ignition system of our economic engine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48342</guid></item></channel></rss>
