The prophets should have taught us a different lesson. They should have led us to feel that it was a solemn duty, not to conceal, but to bring forward all the evidence which proves, not that one country is better than another, or one portion of the church better than another, but that there is a principle of decay, a tendency to apostasy in all, and that no comfort can come from merely balancing symptoms of good here against symptoms of evil there, no comfort from considering whether we are a little less contentious, a little less idolatrous than our neighbors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a concern to us as we are heading into the direction of increasing graduation standards.

It is inconceivable that the things that are of utmost importance to each individual should not be spoken by one to another. It is unchristian consciously to deprive another of the one decisive service we can render to him...   The more we learn to allow others to speak the Word to us, to accept humbly and gratefully even severe reproaches and admonitions, the more free and objective will we be in speaking ourselves. The humble person will stick to truth and love. He will stick to the Word of God and let it lead him to his brother...   Reproof is unavoidable. God's Word demands it when a brother falls into open sin. Where defection from God's Word in doctrine or life imperils the fellowship... the word of admonition and rebuke must be ventured. Nothing can be more cruel than the tenderness that consigns another to his sin. Nothing can be more compassionate than the severe rebuke that calls a brother back from the path of sin. It is a ministry of mercy, an ultimate offer of genuine fellowship, when we allow nothing but God's Word to stand between us, judging and succoring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What the American public wants in the theater is a tragedy with a happy ending. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59547]]></link><description><![CDATA[What the American public wants in the theater is a tragedy with a happy ending.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Labor is the fruit of civilization, not the basis of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23948]]></link><description><![CDATA[Labor is the fruit of civilization, not the basis of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23948</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hereditary bondsmen!

But now I may say I heard, but I understood not; for they were far above, out of my reach; for their talk was about a new birth -- the work of God on their hearts. And methought they spake as if Joy did make them speak; they spake with such pleasantness of scripture language and with such appearance of grace in all they said, that they were to me as if they had found a new world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Statistics are people with the tears wiped from their eyes ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57863]]></link><description><![CDATA[Statistics are people with the tears wiped from their eyes]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After it's all said and done, we usually have a couple thousand left, and we donate that to the Anacortes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37671]]></link><description><![CDATA[After it's all said and done, we usually have a couple thousand left, and we donate that to the Anacortes Boys and Girls Club.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vision without a task is only a dream.
