Who among his disciples or among their proselytes was capable of inventing the sayings of Jesus or of imagining the life and character revealed in the Gospels? Certainly not the fishermen of Galilee; as certainly not St. Paul, whose character and idiosyncrasies were of a totally different sort; still less the early Christian writers, in whom nothing is more evident than that the good which was in them was all derived, as they always professed that it was derived, from the higher source.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8530</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Law is commands joined to threats of punishment ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38873]]></link><description><![CDATA[Law is commands joined to threats of punishment]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For death begins with life's first breathAnd life begins at touch of death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11315]]></link><description><![CDATA[For death begins with life's first breathAnd life begins at touch of death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Done is better than perfect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9252]]></link><description><![CDATA[Done is better than perfect.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Holy Saturday   If I ask to be delivered from trial rather than for deliverance out of it, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Holy Saturday   If I ask to be delivered from trial rather than for deliverance out of it, to the praise of His glory; if I forget that the way of the Cross leads to the Cross and not to a bank of flowers; if I regulate my life on these lines, or even unconsciously my thinking, so that I am surprised when the way is rough and think it strange, "Think it not strange, Count it all joy," then I know nothing of Calvary love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Incredulity is the wisdom of the fool ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20706]]></link><description><![CDATA[Incredulity is the wisdom of the fool]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Defeat is a school in which truth always grows strong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11810]]></link><description><![CDATA[Defeat is a school in which truth always grows strong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I guess to just keep playing music; to just keep outdoing the last record. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30693]]></link><description><![CDATA[I guess to just keep playing music; to just keep outdoing the last record.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had a good start after the bats struggled in the first game. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33632]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had a good start after the bats struggled in the first game.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to allcreative endeavors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22697]]></link><description><![CDATA[Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to allcreative endeavors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If there's a power above us, (and that there is all nature cries aloud Through all her works) he must ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43783]]></link><description><![CDATA[If there's a power above us, (and that there is all nature cries aloud Through all her works) he must delight in virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65866]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My career should adapt to me.

In my childhood we were always assured that the brain was a telephone switchboard. ('What else could it be?')
