It is the untroubled that are in danger. Trouble in itself is always a claim on love, and God is love. He must deny Himself if He does not come to help the helpless. It is the prisoners, and the blind, and the leper, and the possessed, and the hungry, and the tempest-tossed, who are His special care. Therefore if you are lost and sick and bound, you are just in the place where He can meet you. Blessed are the mourners. They shall be comforted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bravest are the most tender; the loving are the daring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63384]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bravest are the most tender; the loving are the daring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Egotism is the anesthetic that dulls the pain of stupidity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13675]]></link><description><![CDATA[Egotism is the anesthetic that dulls the pain of stupidity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is primarily because it is illegal for a lot of the student population.

Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3988]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The smashing of idols is in itself such a preoccupation that it is almost impossible for the iconoclast to look ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56849]]></link><description><![CDATA[The smashing of idols is in itself such a preoccupation that it is almost impossible for the iconoclast to look clearly into a future when there will not be many idols left to smash.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Newton, Pascal, Bossuet, Racine, Fénelon -- that is to say, some of the most enlightened men on earth, in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6437]]></link><description><![CDATA[Newton, Pascal, Bossuet, Racine, Fénelon -- that is to say, some of the most enlightened men on earth, in the most philosophical of all ages -- have been believers in Jesus Christ; and the great Condé, when dying, repeated these noble words, "Yes, I shall see God as He is, face to face!".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988  We must confess our sins in order to obtain pardon; but we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988  We must confess our sins in order to obtain pardon; but we must see our sins in order to confess.
