We seem here to have a paradox: that the reality of an event, which is not real in itself, arises from the other events which, likewise, in themselves are not real. But this only affirms what we must affirm: that direction is all. And only as we realize this do we live, for our own identity is dependent upon this principal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human history is the sad result of each one looking out for himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human history is the sad result of each one looking out for himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are many victories worse than a defeat.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64171]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are many victories worse than a defeat.rn]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that gives me small gifts would have me live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49341]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that gives me small gifts would have me live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Performance stands out like a ton of diamonds.

The argument from prophecy, on which the early apologists laid so much weight, was all ex post facto. No one beforehand could have conjectured a tenth of it. But without the background of Jewish prophet and psalmist, of Jewish national history, it would be hard to understand Jesus. If prophet and historian and legislator did not in type and enigma foretell in detail the story of his life, he was none the less their heir. None the less was he their heir in that he was not in bondage to his inheritance, but... a "minister not of the letter but of the spirit", and the whole of his activity lay "in newness of spirit". Without conjecturing what he might have been on another soil or of another stock--a type of guesswork always futile in history--we have to recognize the... immense spiritual wealth that lay ready to his hand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What sane person could live in this world and not be crazy? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54684]]></link><description><![CDATA[What sane person could live in this world and not be crazy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[each candidate behaved well in the hope of being judged worthy of election.
