Ecclesiastics seems for the most part to have failed, failed both man and God; but God has not failed, Jesus has not failed. The God-man still remains the only leader into cooperation whose wisdom is sufficient for a permanent, competent, and free Society. The dictators and would-be dictators will not do.

Men will continue to demand not the freedom from that degree of unity for which the dictatorships stand, but rather a finer, more noble, more perceptive kind of unity: a human solidarity which is not nationalistic but world-embracing, a human integration which in aim and purpose is not secularist but spiritual. What the world unwittingly is groping after is allegiance to the eternal, the compassionate, the completely integrating Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6695</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money was made, not to command our will, But all out lawful pleasure to fulfil.  Shame and woe to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42964]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money was made, not to command our will, But all out lawful pleasure to fulfil.  Shame and woe to use, if we our wealth obey;   The horse doth with the horseman run away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42964</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Author: A fool, who, not content with having bored those who have lived with him, insists on tormenting the generations ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25366]]></link><description><![CDATA[Author: A fool, who, not content with having bored those who have lived with him, insists on tormenting the generations to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With new broadband video outlets dramatically changing the entertainment and communications markets, the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor brings content providers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38337]]></link><description><![CDATA[With new broadband video outlets dramatically changing the entertainment and communications markets, the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor brings content providers and the newest video solutions together to help network service providers make critical purchasing decisions for deploying voice, video and data services over next-generation networks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In talking to the guys elected, several of them were emotional about it.
