By means of them the revelation of God to men was made, or appeared to be made, less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Often the difference between a successful person and a failure is not one has better abilities or ideas, but the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20272]]></link><description><![CDATA[Often the difference between a successful person and a failure is not one has better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on one's ideas, to take a calculated risk - and to act.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her gentle limbs did she undress, And lay down in her loveliness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3850]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her gentle limbs did she undress, And lay down in her loveliness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He lives the poetry that he cannot write.
