This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to winthat makes the difference. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21217]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to winthat makes the difference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In ashes of despaire, though burnt, shall make thee live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16026]]></link><description><![CDATA[In ashes of despaire, though burnt, shall make thee live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a country well governed poverty is something to be ashamed of.

But when he was compelled to grind instead of serving in the wars, he bewailed his change of fortune and called to mind his former state, saying, Ah! Miller, I had indeed to go campaigning before, but I was barbed from counter to tail, and a man went along to groom me; and now I cannot understand what ailed me to prefer the mill before the battle. Forbear, said the Miller to him, harping on what was of yore, for it is the common lot of mortals to sustain the ups and downs of fortune.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No well-informed person has declared a change of opinion to be inconstancy. [Lat., Nemo doctus unquam mutationem consilii inconstantiam dixit ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9871]]></link><description><![CDATA[No well-informed person has declared a change of opinion to be inconstancy. [Lat., Nemo doctus unquam mutationem consilii inconstantiam dixit esse.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is indeed difficult, partly because of the real difficulties we must overcome in order to survive, and partly because ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is indeed difficult, partly because of the real difficulties we must overcome in order to survive, and partly because of our own innate desire to always do better, to overcome new challenges, to self-actualize.

They have Christ, they have God, and they are satisfied. There can be no monotony in the contemplation and worship of the Infinite. Their great possession is unchangeable, but also inexhaustible; no change is possible where all is love and truth. The centre of the heavenly life is fixed and immovable, but the circumference may ever be advancing towards the centre, the saints may ever be drawing nearer and nearer to the goal which they can never reach. There may be progress in knowledge, progress in enjoyment, progress in service -- a progress which at every point will open up new wonders, new opportunities, new outlooks into a greater future, and as that future unfolds itself, new and unexpected scopes for the energies of redeemed men, new ways of fellowship with God in Christ, new companionships with the good and great of past generations, and with angelic beings who have watched and guarded us in life, and rejoiced over our repentance, and are ready to welcome us into the eternal mansions, and will share our worship and our work, our service and our joy, in the ages to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Were there no fooles, badd ware would not passe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50055]]></link><description><![CDATA[Were there no fooles, badd ware would not passe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If confusion is the first step to knowledge, I must be a genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9753]]></link><description><![CDATA[If confusion is the first step to knowledge, I must be a genius.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In some Chicago neighborhoods, looking for a parking space is not unlike panning for gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5873]]></link><description><![CDATA[In some Chicago neighborhoods, looking for a parking space is not unlike panning for gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am mortified to be told that, in the United States of America, the sale of a book can become ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5424]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am mortified to be told that, in the United States of America, the sale of a book can become a subject of inquiry, and of criminal inquiry too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man can have sex with animals such as sheeps, cows, camels and so on.
