And what He does is to come to each soul partaking in the Sacrament and to assure it that He stands to the best and biggest of His promises and to the fullness of His grace in Christ... de-universalizes the Scriptures and individualizes them, makes them a personal promise, couched no longer in general terms but offered to very you and very me, as individually as if they covered no other but referred to you and me alone. We may be cold and dead and unresponsive. None the less, something happens in the Sacrament.

In escape from sensual appetites, not in their satisfaction We live in a dark, self-enclosed prison, which is all we see or know if our glance is fixed ever downward. To lift it upward, becoming aware of the wide, luminous universe outside -- this alone is happiness. At its highest level, such happiness is the ecstasy that mystics have inadequately described At more humdrum levels, it is human love; the delights and beauties of our dear earth, its colors and shapes and sounds; the enchantment of understanding and laughing, and all other exercise of such faculties as we possess; the marvel of the meaning of everything, fitfully glimpsed, inadequately expounded, but ever present.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Interest makes some people blind, and others quick-sighted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/895]]></link><description><![CDATA[Interest makes some people blind, and others quick-sighted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They favour learning whose actions are worthy of a learned pen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49962]]></link><description><![CDATA[They favour learning whose actions are worthy of a learned pen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many worthy people, and many good books, with no doubt the best intentions, ... have represented a life of sin ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many worthy people, and many good books, with no doubt the best intentions, ... have represented a life of sin as a life of pleasure; they have pictured virtue as self-sacrifice, austerity as religion.
