The worst thing a book can do for a Christian is to leave him with the impression that he has received from it anything really good; the best it can do is to point the way to the Good he is seeking. The function of a good book is to stand like a signpost directing the reader toward the Truth and the Life. That book serves best which early makes itself unnecessary, just as a signpost serves best after it is forgotten, after the traveler has arrived safely at his desired haven. The work of a good book is to incite the reader to moral action, to turn his eves toward God and urge him forward. Beyond that it cannot go.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poets are sultans, if they had their will: For every author would his brother kill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46841]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poets are sultans, if they had their will: For every author would his brother kill.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you get something for nothing, you just haven't been billed for ityet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22627]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you get something for nothing, you just haven't been billed for ityet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66303]]></link><description><![CDATA[Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Asking 'who ought to be the boss' is like asking 'who ought to be the tenor in the quartet?'

All we can have by ourselves is a club or a debating society; and our only hope, left to ourselves, is to win as many members for our own club and away from other clubs as we can. And whatever this is, it is not Mission. Mission belongs to God. The Mission was His from the beginning; it is His; it will always be His. He has His purposes from the foundation of the world, and the means to fulfill them; and the only part the Church has in this is obedience -- a share in the eternal and life-giving obedience of the Son of God... And the most terrible judgment on the Church comes when God leaves us to our own devices because He is tired of waiting for our obedience -- leaves us to be the domestic chaplains to a comfortable secular world -- and goes Himself into the wilderness of human need and injustice and pain. This judgment does come on churches and nations, when they forget that God is in command, that He does the choosing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25038]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were focusing on college students' attitudes toward foreign policy and for religion and morality.
