The worst thing a book can do for a Christian is to leave him with the impression that he has received from it anything really good; the best it can do is to point the way to the Good he is seeking. The function of a good book is to stand like a signpost directing the reader toward the Truth and the Life. That book serves best which early makes itself unnecessary, just as a signpost serves best after it is forgotten, after the traveler has arrived safely at his desired haven. The work of a good book is to incite the reader to moral action, to turn his eves toward God and urge him forward. Beyond that it cannot go.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is his own worst enemy. [Lat., Nihil inimicius quam sibi ipse.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13847]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is his own worst enemy. [Lat., Nihil inimicius quam sibi ipse.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Under all that we think, lives all we believe, like the ultimate veilof our spirits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21289]]></link><description><![CDATA[Under all that we think, lives all we believe, like the ultimate veilof our spirits.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have a family mission statement that clarifies what your purpose is, then you use that as the criterion ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66399]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have a family mission statement that clarifies what your purpose is, then you use that as the criterion by which you make the decisions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I came in, there was so much cheating and so many tricks, and they've pretty much taken that out. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37384]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I came in, there was so much cheating and so many tricks, and they've pretty much taken that out.
