But there in hell--that is, beyond a fixed boundary set by God--all the securities and safeguards disappear into thin air. What here is only a tiny flame of secret self-reproach that flickers up occasionally and is quickly smothered, there becomes a scorching fire. What here is no more than a slight ticking sound in our conscience suddenly becomes the trumpet tone of judgment which can no longer be ignored. Lazarus is permitted to see what he believed, but the rich man is compelled to see what he did not believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43719]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We who lived in the concentration camps can rememberthe men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away theirlast ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22676]]></link><description><![CDATA[We who lived in the concentration camps can rememberthe men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away theirlast piece of bread.

The American standard of living has risen to unprecedented heights, although a large portion of the world exists on a sub-human level. Philanthropy, as we practice it, is not enough --- although the word philanthropy actually means brotherhood. Our stewardship of God's goods requires that we administer in God's name -- that is, with full awareness that the world is His and that His love is directed toward us no more fully than toward every man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man maintains his balance, poise, and sense of security only as he is moving forward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man maintains his balance, poise, and sense of security only as he is moving forward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It shouldn't take more than 18 months to sell off the condos.
