They never fail to help widows; they save orphans from those who would hurt them. If a man has something, he gives freely to the man who has nothing. If they see a stranger, Christians take him home and are happy, as though he were a real brother. They don't consider themselves brothers in the usual sense, but brothers instead through the Spirit, in God. And if they hear that one of them is in jail, or persecuted for professing the name of their redeemer, they all give him what he needs -- if it is possible, they bail him out. If one of them is poor and there isn't enough food to go around, they fast several days to give him the food he needs... This is really a new kind of person. There is something divine in them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is Christ's joy in us, but that He deigns to rejoice on our account?

And what is our Joy, which He says shall be full, but to have fellowship with Him? He had perfect joy on our account, when He rejoiced in foreknowing and predestinating us; but that joy was not in us, because we did not then exist; it began to be in us, when He called us. And this joy we rightly call our own, this joy wherewith we shall be blessed; which is begun in the faith of them who are born again, and shall be fulfilled in the reward of them who rise again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are people who have money and people who are rich. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21191]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are people who have money and people who are rich.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we don't knock it back now it's just going to get worse and worse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33558]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we don't knock it back now it's just going to get worse and worse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never lie to someone who trusts you, and never trust someone who lies to you!! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62893]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never lie to someone who trusts you, and never trust someone who lies to you!!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62893</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagination is more important than knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1462]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagination is more important than knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest happiness of the greatest number. [Lat., La massima felicita divisa nel maggior numero.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18632]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest happiness of the greatest number. [Lat., La massima felicita divisa nel maggior numero.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rest of the games for the rest of the season are big games.

It involves the conceptions of authoritative examination, of unquestionable proof, of decisive judgment, of punitive power. Whatever the final issue may be, he who "convicts" another must place the truth of the case in a clear light before him, so that it must be seen and acknowledged as truth. He who then rejects the conclusion which the exposition involves, rejects it with his eyes open and at his peril.
