Will the day come when the only bird a typical American child ever sees is a canary in a pet shop window? When the only wild animal he knows is a rat - glimpsed on a night drive through some city slum? When the only tree he touches is the cleverly fabricated plastic evergreen that shades his gifts on Christmas morning?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accident is the name of the greatest of all inventors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/304]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accident is the name of the greatest of all inventors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We got our composure back.

It may be better laid at the door of the church [that] has failed to preach the God of the Bible, heaven and hell, repentance, faith, and eternal life. It can be argued that a society only gets the advertising it deserves. Yet the power to commend certain patterns of spending behaviour to millions with regularity is an open invitation to orchestrate the covetousness, envy, lust, and desire to dominate, which lie in the heart of sinful man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Night's black Mantle covers all alike.   - Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44521]]></link><description><![CDATA[Night's black Mantle covers all alike.   - Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship is genuine when two friends can enjoy each others company without speaking a word to one another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16816]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship is genuine when two friends can enjoy each others company without speaking a word to one another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience.

We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mirror of all courtesy. -King Henry VIII.
