Provide you could pay and read, what was on the shelves in the new bookshops was yours for the taking. The speed with which printing presses and their operators fanned out across Europe is extraordinary. From the single Mainz press of 1457, it took only twenty-three years to establish presses in 110 towns: 50 in Ita!0 in Germany, 9 in France, 8 in Spain, 8 in Holland, 4 in England, and so on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treading softly like a thief, Lest the harsh shingle should grate underfoot,  And feeling all along the garden wall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51722]]></link><description><![CDATA[Treading softly like a thief, Lest the harsh shingle should grate underfoot,  And feeling all along the garden wall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is ever seeking to get down to us -- to be the divine man in us.

And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For my part, I confess I seldom listen to the players: one has so much to do, in looking about ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59052]]></link><description><![CDATA[For my part, I confess I seldom listen to the players: one has so much to do, in looking about and finding out one's acquaintance, that, really, one has no time to mind the stage.

The duty of following truth at all hazards is not altered, and it is only a false wisdom and prudence which shuns the search. The one chief reason why so much more may be revealed to babes than to the wise and prudent is still simply that, with less calculation and prejudice, they entirely abandon themselves to the leading of truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not expect the world to look bright, if you habitually wear gray-brown glasses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45211]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not expect the world to look bright, if you habitually wear gray-brown glasses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beginning a short series on sin:  Sin is nothing else than that the creature willeth otherwise than God willeth, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7146]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beginning a short series on sin:  Sin is nothing else than that the creature willeth otherwise than God willeth, and contrary to Him.  ...
