This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52896]]></link><description><![CDATA[At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace the savage races throughout the world]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One mouth doth nothing without another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49695]]></link><description><![CDATA[One mouth doth nothing without another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49695</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou should'st be carolling thy Maker's praise, Poor bird! now fetter'd, and here set to draw,  With graceless toil ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou should'st be carolling thy Maker's praise, Poor bird! now fetter'd, and here set to draw,  With graceless toil of beak and added claw,   The meagre food that scarce thy want allays!    And this--to gratify the gloating gaze     Of fools, who value Nature not a straw,      But know to prize the infraction of her law       An hard perversion of her creatures' ways!        Thee the wild woods await, in leaves attired,         Where notes of liquid utterance should engage          Thy bill, that now with pain scant forage earns.   - Julian C.H.

Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough... It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again," to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again," to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike: it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God; for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62037]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God; for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62037</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the weak soul, within itself unbless'd, Leans for all pleasure on another's breast. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61335]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the weak soul, within itself unbless'd, Leans for all pleasure on another's breast.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26223]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion.
