We must do it together -- or be cast aside together, and God in his absolute freedom goes on by other means to use His Church in hastening His Kingdom.  ...Howard Hewlett Clark    January 31, 1998  Commemoration of John Bosco, Priest, Founder of the Salesian Teaching Order, 1888  The axioms of reason are non-demonstrable assumptions. Why should faith not be granted the same privilege? The denial of the truths of faith is, in the last analysis, no less a faith than faith itself, for it rests on personal assumptions which are apart from scientific necessity. In other words, as the truth of reason carries its own evidence, so also with faith. To the mind to whom the axioms of reason are not self-evident, they cannot be proven. So also in the case of faith: for the mind that is not enlightened by faith, the evidence of faith is ridiculous. But for the man whose eyes have been enlightened by the Spirit, faith has its proper evidence, though different from that of reason. The only sufficient ground of faith is the authority of God Himself as he addresses me in His Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wars begin in the minds of man, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9182]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wars begin in the minds of man, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60510]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Want of care does us more damage than want of knowledge ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Want of care does us more damage than want of knowledge]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All my life as an artist I have asked myself: What pushes me continually to make sculpture?

We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ask but enough, and you may lower the price as you list. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50967]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ask but enough, and you may lower the price as you list.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men want power in order to do something.
