That is one of the best proofs of its divine inspiration. The prophets had the forward look [and] great things were yet to come. As one of the most daring expressed it, the old and hallowed covenant, made by God at the Exodus, would be superseded by a new and higher relation; God would write his law into the hearts of the people; the old drill in outward statutes would disappear, for all men would know God by an inward experience of forgiveness and love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ethics is the activity of man directed to secure the inner perfection of his own personality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63699]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ethics is the activity of man directed to secure the inner perfection of his own personality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Picture you upon my knee, Just tea two and two for tea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58700]]></link><description><![CDATA[Picture you upon my knee, Just tea two and two for tea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The structure of life I have described in buildings - the structure which I believe to be objective - is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31817]]></link><description><![CDATA[The structure of life I have described in buildings - the structure which I believe to be objective - is deeply and inextricably connected with the human person, and with the innermost nature of human feeling.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31817</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the most fashionable notions of our times is that social problems like poverty and oppression breed wars.

Prosperity has power to intoxicate the imagination, to fix the mind upon the present scene, to produce confidence and elation, and to make him who enjoys affluence and honors forget the hand by which they were bestowed. It is seldom that we are otherwise than by affliction awakened to a sense of our imbecility, or taught to know how little all our acquisitions can conduce to safety or quiet, and how justly we may inscribe to the superintendence of a higher power those blessings which in the wantonness of success we considered as the attainments of our policy and courage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How some they have died, and some they have left me, And some are taken from me; all are departed; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14860]]></link><description><![CDATA[How some they have died, and some they have left me, And some are taken from me; all are departed;  All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["When the Son of Man cometh, shall He find faith on the earth?"

If He should now come, would He find it in us? What fruits of faith have we to show? Do we look upon this life only as a short passage to a better? Do we believe that we must suffer with Jesus Christ before we can reign with Him? Do we consider this world as a deceitful appearance, and death as the entrance to true happiness? Do we live by faith? Does it animate us? Do we relish the eternal truths it presents us with? Are we as careful to nourish our souls with those truths as to maintain our bodies with proper diet? Do we accustom ourselves to see all things in the light of faith? Do we correct all our judgements by it?  Alas! The greater part of Christians think and act like mere heathens; if we judge (as we justly may) of their faith by their practice, we must conclude they have no faith at all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success requires first expending ten units of effort to produce oneunit of results.

Now hath my life across a stormy sea  Like a frail bark reached that wide port where all  Are bidden, ere the final reckoning fall Of good and evil for eternity. Now know I well how that fond phantasy  Which made my soul the worshipper and thrall  Of earthly art, is vain; how criminal Is that which all men seek unwillingly. Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed,  What are they when the double death is nigh?  The one I know for sure, the other dread. Painting nor sculpture now can lull to rest  My soul that turns to His great love on high,  Whose arms to clasp us on the cross were spread.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that parents need to make nutrition education a priority in their home environment.
