This He does for the sake of what man is to inherit, to become. And for the means, He gives him over to a Person, Christ, and a community, the Church; and in attachment to these, personality grows, freedom is attained, sin is forgiven, estrangement is ended, capacities for relationship extend. Reconciliation is the Spirit's liberating work of love, exercised through a Person and a community of persons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue lies half way between two opposite vices. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50377]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue lies half way between two opposite vices.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50377</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who finds not Providence all good and wise, Alike in what it gives, and what denies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who finds not Providence all good and wise, Alike in what it gives, and what denies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[About the Oscars] Is the ultimate prize for any producer.

It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or ever the knightly years were gone With the old world to the grave,  I was a king in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or ever the knightly years were gone With the old world to the grave,  I was a king in Babylon   And you were a Christian slave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think this race is going to be aggressive.

Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["I worked for men," my Lord will say, When we meet at the end of the King's highway;  "I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11682]]></link><description><![CDATA["I worked for men," my Lord will say, When we meet at the end of the King's highway;  "I walked with the beggar along the road,   I kissed the bondsman stung by the goad,    I bore my half of the porter's load.     And what did you do," my Lord will say,      "As you traveled along the King's highway?"]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your birth is a mistake you'll spend your whole life trying to correct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4252]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your birth is a mistake you'll spend your whole life trying to correct.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Abstinence is the surety of temperance ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/186]]></link><description><![CDATA[Abstinence is the surety of temperance]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/186</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14999]]></link><description><![CDATA[In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Television -- a medium.
