Genuine spiritual authority is to be found only where the ministry of hearing, helping, bearing, and proclaiming is carried out. Every cult of personality that emphasizes the distinguished qualities, virtues, and talents of another person, even though these be of an altogether spiritual nature, is worldly and has no place in the Christian community; indeed, it poisons the Christian community...   Genuine authority realizes that it can exist only in the service of Him who alone has authority... The Church does not need brilliant personalities but faithful servants of Jesus and the brethren...   Pastoral authority can be attained only by the servant of Jesus who seeks no power of his own, who himself is a brother among brothers to the authority of the Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27272]]></link><description><![CDATA[An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in her.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chide him for faults, and do it reverently, When you perceive his blood inclined to mirth,  But, being moody, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chide him for faults, and do it reverently, When you perceive his blood inclined to mirth,  But, being moody, give him time and scope,   Till that his passions, like a whale on ground,    Confound themselves with working.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two golden rules for an orchestra: start together and finish together.

In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them.

How would the man interpret it? Would it not mean to him, "You may go on hating. I do not mind it. You have had great provocation, and are justified in your hate?" No doubt God takes what wrong there is, and what provocation there is, into the account; but the more provocation, the more excuse that can be urged for the hate, the more reason, if possible, that the hater should be delivered from the hell of his hate, that God's child should be made the loving child that He meant him to be. The man would think, not that God loved the sinner, but that He forgave the sin, which God never does. Every sin meets its due fate -- inexorable expulsion from the paradise of God's Humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14344]]></link><description><![CDATA[Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to make new things like them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every madman considers everyone else a madman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51594]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every madman considers everyone else a madman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The holy grail of our research is to convince those cells to regenerate, but now, we need to first understand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41361]]></link><description><![CDATA[The holy grail of our research is to convince those cells to regenerate, but now, we need to first understand what the composition of hair cells are and how they develop.

Sometimes migrating groups of potato-washers meet non-washers, and the two groups watch each other's strange behavior with apparent bewilderment. But unlike the inhabitants of Lilliput, who fought holy crusades over the question at which end to break the egg, the potato-washing monkeys do not go to war with the non-washers, because the poor creatures have no language which would enable them to declare washing a diving commandment and eating unwashed potatoes a deadly heresy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But with what incessant and grievous ills is old age surrounded! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50434]]></link><description><![CDATA[But with what incessant and grievous ills is old age surrounded!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[640K ought to be enough for anybody. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9576]]></link><description><![CDATA[640K ought to be enough for anybody.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humour is the weapon of unarmed people: it helps people who are oppressed to smile at the situation that pains ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20136]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humour is the weapon of unarmed people: it helps people who are oppressed to smile at the situation that pains them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is man's nature: Nature is God's art. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43807]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is man's nature: Nature is God's art.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet bird that shunn'st the nose of folly, Most musical, most melancholy!  Thee, chauntress, oft, the woods among,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44552]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweet bird that shunn'st the nose of folly, Most musical, most melancholy!  Thee, chauntress, oft, the woods among,   I woo, to hear thy even-song.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're in the middle of a tax revolution, and this is evidence of that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41994]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're in the middle of a tax revolution, and this is evidence of that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41994</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ideas, as the raw material from which knowledge is produced, exist in superabundance, but that makes the production of knowledge ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52162]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ideas, as the raw material from which knowledge is produced, exist in superabundance, but that makes the production of knowledge more difficult rather than easier.
