What it did was to guarantee that the old morality was actually valid, and the old beliefs literally true. "Ye worship ye know not what, but we know what we worship," "that which we have seen with our eyes and our hands have handled" -- "He suffered under Pontius Pilate." God died -- not in a legend, not in a symbol, not in a distant past nor in a realm unknown, but here, [in the crucifiction of Christ]; the whole great cloudy castle of natural religion and poetic prophecy is brought down to earth and firmly cemented upon that angular and solid cornerstone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a brave fellow!

There was none of the indeterminate, inconclusive talking which we are apt to describe as "sowing the seed". Our idea of sowing the seed seems to be rather like scattering wheat out of a balloon... Occasionally, of course, grains of wheat scattered out of a balloon will fall upon ploughed and fertile land and will spring up and bear fruit; but it is a casual method of sowing. Paul did not scatter seeds, he planted. He so dealt with his hearers that he brought them speedily and directly to a point of decision, and then he demanded of them that they should make a choice and act on their choice. In this way he kept the moral issue clearly before them, and made them realize that his preaching was not merely a novel and interesting doctrine, but a life.

Our danger lies in resisting Him; so it is essential that we acquire the habit of hearkening to His voice, or keeping silence within, and listening so as to lose nothing of what He says to us. We know well enough how to keep outward silence, and to hush our spoken words, but we know little of interior silence. It consists in hushing our idle, restless, wandering imagination, in quieting the promptings of our worldly minds, and in suppressing the crowd of unprofitable thoughts which excite and disturb the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't let yourself be controlled by these three things: your past, people, and money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63169]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't let yourself be controlled by these three things: your past, people, and money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is such a thing as taking ourselves and the world too seriously, or at any rate too anxiously.

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had a nice drive right off the bat, but we couldn't get the job done, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37464]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had a nice drive right off the bat, but we couldn't get the job done,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sure would be nice to have some school officials here. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31382]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sure would be nice to have some school officials here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've never heard of [Scratch Track], but a band like O.A.R. or Dave Matthews will find chill bands like this ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36843]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've never heard of [Scratch Track], but a band like O.A.R. or Dave Matthews will find chill bands like this and take them across the country with them and that's how these bands come to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Become a possibilitarian.
