The first involved machines which extended human muscle; the second used machines to extend the human nervous system (radio, television, telephones); the third is now utilizing machines which extend the human mind-computers. About half of all service workers (43 percent of the labor force by 2000) will be involved in collecting, analyzing, synthesizing, structuring, storing, or retrieving information... By 1995, 80 percent of all management will be "knowledge workers.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9628]]></link><description><![CDATA[My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself; but talent instantly recognises genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58583]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself; but talent instantly recognises genius.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're keeping a very close eye on it, but at this point, nothing seems to point to the need for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40389]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're keeping a very close eye on it, but at this point, nothing seems to point to the need for a state response.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is good to die before one has done anything deserving death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11404]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is good to die before one has done anything deserving death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus ventured to trust God far beyond the degree that any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6216]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus ventured to trust God far beyond the degree that any other man had trusted God. Abraham, Moses, and David were valiant believers, but compared to Jesus they were timid souls. Consider the human disappointments Jesus endured: rejected in his home town, harassed and persecuted by the religious leaders of his nation, misunderstood by his own family, betrayed with a kiss and abandoned by all his followers. Yet through it all Jesus never complained or rebelled against God; he trusted God even on the cross. Psalm 34 sets forth Jesus' pioneering discovery of God's faithfulness and delivering power. Thus Jesus was "delivered from all his fears" (v 4), "saved ... out of all his troubles" (v 6), "delivered out of all his afflictions" (v 19).  Certainly Jesus is our primary teacher and example in trusting God. If David could teach his followers to trust in God, how much more Jesus. As we see the steadfast faith of our Lord through weariness, disappointment, rejection, and even death on a cross, we cannot but be encouraged to believe that God can deliver us through our small trials. That is why we should run the race set before us looking unto Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  The primary object of prayer is to know God better; we and our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  The primary object of prayer is to know God better; we and our needs should come second.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can't communicate.

To justify Christianity because it provides a foundation of morality, instead of showing the necessity of Christian morality from the truth of Christianity, is a very dangerous inversion; and we may reflect that a good deal of the attention of totalitarian states has been devoted with a steadfastness of purpose not always found in democracies, to providing their national life with a foundation of morality -- the wrong kind, perhaps, but a good deal more of it. It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou shalt abstain, Renounce, refrain.  [Ger., Entbehren sollst du! sollst entbehren.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58898]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou shalt abstain, Renounce, refrain.  [Ger., Entbehren sollst du! sollst entbehren.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In no direction that we turn do we find ease or comfort.
