These basic truths should be studied as set forth in the New Testament, that they may be asserted or defended whenever occasion requires. If this be done in a humble and Christian spirit, we shall in the long run be promoting the cause of Christian unity, which must ultimately find its basis in the truth which God has revealed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Health is the greatest possession.

Contented, peaceful fishermen, before they ever knew The peace of God that filled their hearts brimful, and broke them too. Young John who trimmed the flapping sail, homeless in Patmos died. Peter, who hauled the teeming net, head-down was crucified. The peace of God, it is no peace, but strife closed in the sod; Yet, brothers, pray for but one thing -- the marvelous peace of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25157]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Unix is so damned useful, why is "no" in /usr/dict/words, but "yes" isn't? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60257]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Unix is so damned useful, why is "no" in /usr/dict/words, but "yes" isn't?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A successful lawsuit is the one worn by the policeman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24314]]></link><description><![CDATA[A successful lawsuit is the one worn by the policeman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just don't see the wage pressures and I think the bond market is so happy because that means there ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42252]]></link><description><![CDATA[We just don't see the wage pressures and I think the bond market is so happy because that means there really isn't any threat of inflation out there.

And in view of what he plainly said, is it any wonder that all who were rich and prosperous felt a horror of strange things, a swimming of their world at his teaching? Perhaps the priests and the rich men understood him better than his followers. He was dragging out all the little private reservations they had made from social service into the light of a universal religious life. He was like some terrible moral huntsman digging mankind out of the snug burrows in which they had lived hitherto. In the white blaze of this kingdom of his there was to be no property, no privilege, no pride and precedence; no motive indeed and no reward but love. Is it any wonder that men were dazzled and blinded and cried out against him? Even his disciples cried out when he would not spare them the light. Is it any wonder that the priests realized that between this man and themselves there was no choice but that he or priestcraft should perish? Is it any wonder that the Roman soldiers, confronted and amazed by something soaring over their comprehension and threatening all their disciplines, should take refuge in wild laughter, and crown him with thorns and robe him in purple and make a mock Caesar of him? For to take him seriously was to enter upon a strange and alarming life, to abandon habits, to control instincts and impulses, to essay an incredible happiness... Is it any wonder that to this day this Galilean is too much for our small hearts?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our audiences are all ages: kids who just love the show, love the movie, grandparents bringing their grandkids, it really ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35102]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our audiences are all ages: kids who just love the show, love the movie, grandparents bringing their grandkids, it really covers the spectrum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes you have to be a bitch to get things done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5397]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes you have to be a bitch to get things done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree;  Where Alph, the sacred river ran,   Through caverns ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54319]]></link><description><![CDATA[In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree;  Where Alph, the sacred river ran,   Through caverns measureless to man    Down to a sunless sea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behind every successful man there's a lot of unsuccessful years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behind every successful man there's a lot of unsuccessful years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She has been very outspoken about her desire to be a young bride... so the idea of her learning what ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31585]]></link><description><![CDATA[She has been very outspoken about her desire to be a young bride... so the idea of her learning what it's like to be married works either way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We talked about defending better and we came out and did it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35028]]></link><description><![CDATA[We talked about defending better and we came out and did it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43898]]></link><description><![CDATA[A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A release order is to be given to the prison administration for the defendants whose names have been mentioned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28427]]></link><description><![CDATA[A release order is to be given to the prison administration for the defendants whose names have been mentioned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The nearer the church, the further from God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8664]]></link><description><![CDATA[The nearer the church, the further from God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8664</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cow is a very good animal in the field; but we turn her out of a garden. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10529]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cow is a very good animal in the field; but we turn her out of a garden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who say it can't be done are usually interrupted by others doing it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53717]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who say it can't be done are usually interrupted by others doing it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A very gentle beast, and of a good conscience. -A Midsummer Night's Dream.
