It was no use preaching the gospel only to those who came to church to hear it. The gospel ought to be preached to those who didn't want to hear it as well: to industrialists in their offices, to clubmen in their windows, to workers in their yards and factories, to bibbers in their taverns, to harlots in their doorways, to all those should the sweet tidings of Christ be taught. It was a sorry matter for reflection that it was only heretics who dared to brave the sneers of the mob by crying aloud the Name of Jesus at street corners and in the market place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O wad some power the giftie gie us To see oursel's as ithers see us!  It wad frae monie ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2808]]></link><description><![CDATA[O wad some power the giftie gie us To see oursel's as ithers see us!  It wad frae monie a blunder free us.   And foolish notion;    What airs in dress and gait wad lea'e us,     And ev'n devotion!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2808</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To sentence a man of true genius, to the drudgery of a school is to put a racehorse on a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/971]]></link><description><![CDATA[To sentence a man of true genius, to the drudgery of a school is to put a racehorse on a treadmill.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you aren't playing well, the game isn't as much fun.

He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention. It did not scrap the Constitution and allow the president to do whatever he pleased in any area in the name of fighting terrorism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46106]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46106</guid></item></channel></rss>
