For that life is won only from death and the good only from the evil is a piece of thoroughly worldly knowledge which is not strange to the Christian. But all this has nothing to do with the temptation of which Christ speaks. It simply does not touch the reality which is meant here. The temptation of which the whole Bible speaks does not have to do with the testing of my strength, for it is of the very essence of temptation in the Bible that all my strength -- to my horror, and without my being able to do anything about it -- is turned against me; really all my powers, including my good and pious powers (the strength of my faith), fall into the hands of the enemy power and are now led into the field against me. Before there can be any testing of my powers, I have been robbed of them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our echoes roll from soul to soul, And grow for ever and for ever.  Blow, bugle, blow, set the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our echoes roll from soul to soul, And grow for ever and for ever.  Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying,   And answer, echoes, answer, dying, dying, dying.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Again the blackbirds sings; the streams Wake, laughing, from their winter dreams,  And tremble in the April showers  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2998]]></link><description><![CDATA[Again the blackbirds sings; the streams Wake, laughing, from their winter dreams,  And tremble in the April showers   The tassels of the maple flowers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2998</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every human being has hundreds of separate people living under his skin.
