To imagine, then, at the end of this life we shall cease to exist as conscious beings, that our characters, our personalities, will fall back into some boundless being, instead of becoming more and more definite, more and more individual, is certainly not to exalt God; for it is founded on the belief, either that God is now belittled by our present individuality, or that our present individuality is a mere delusion. In the latter case God, whom we find in the depths of our souls, is doubtless also a delusion, for if the self is not real it is no respectable witness on whose testimony we can accept God. Our deepest mature conviction is that finite and infinity interpenetrate, as time and eternity interpenetrate, and our problems must be solved in the light of that conviction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time and tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of 30. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59359]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time and tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of 30.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was probably not as sharp as he normally is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32143]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was probably not as sharp as he normally is.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a better use of our resources to inform consumers what to do about fish than spending money and time ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32907]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a better use of our resources to inform consumers what to do about fish than spending money and time testing more fish.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It sent chills down my spine.

The one only and infallible way to go safely through all the difficulties, trials, temptations, dryness, or opposition of our own evil tempers is this: It is to expect nothing from ourselves, to trust to nothing in ourselves, but in everything to expect and depend upon God for relief. Keep fast hold of this thread, and then let your way be what it will -- darkness, temptation, or the rebellion of nature -- you will be led through it all, to an union with God: for nothing hurts us in any state but an expectation of some thing in it and from it, which we should only expect from God.

For my part, I must not only say, but plead whilst I live in this world, and leave this testimony to the present and future ages, if these papers see the light and do survive, that if I have ever seen any thing in the ways and worship of God wherein the power of religion or godliness hath been expressed, any thing that hath represented the holiness of the gospel and the Author of it, any thing that hath looked like a preludium unto the everlasting Sabbath and rest with God, which we aim through grace to come unto, it hath been there and with them where and amongst whom the Lord's day hath been had in highest esteem, and a strict observation of it attended unto, as an ordinance of our Lord Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They allow schools to fit to kids instead of kids fitting to schools.
