Now, mind you, that is quite true; but it tells you much less than the whole truth about Christianity, and it has no practical importance at all. It is quite true that, if we took Christ's advice, we should soon be living in a happier world. You need not even go as far as Christ. If we did all that... Confucius told us, we should get on a great deal better than we do. And so what?... If Christianity only means one more bit of good advice, then Christianity is of no importance. There has been no lack of good advice for the last four thousand years. A bit more makes no difference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing like a lot of exercise to make you realize you'd rather be lazy and dead sooner. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65946]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing like a lot of exercise to make you realize you'd rather be lazy and dead sooner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is about the tenth station I've come by. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32918]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is about the tenth station I've come by.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only real valuable thing is intuition. -Albert Einstein. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22999]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only real valuable thing is intuition. -Albert Einstein.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ease and honour are seldom bed-fellows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ease and honour are seldom bed-fellows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything comes if a man will only wait. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything comes if a man will only wait.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So stands the statue that enchants the world, So bending tries to veil the matchless boast,  The mingled beauties ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54938]]></link><description><![CDATA[So stands the statue that enchants the world, So bending tries to veil the matchless boast,  The mingled beauties of exulting Greece.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The slothful is the servant of the counters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49914]]></link><description><![CDATA[The slothful is the servant of the counters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man that studieth revenge keeps his own wounds green, which otherwise would heal and do well. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54106]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man that studieth revenge keeps his own wounds green, which otherwise would heal and do well.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each year, one vicious habit rooted out, in time ought to make the worst man good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18556]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each year, one vicious habit rooted out, in time ought to make the worst man good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1781]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We probably wouldn't worry about what people think of us if we could knowhow seldom they do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22666]]></link><description><![CDATA[We probably wouldn't worry about what people think of us if we could knowhow seldom they do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Confusion is a word we have invented for an order which is not yet understood ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9747]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confusion is a word we have invented for an order which is not yet understood]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Buddhism holds that everything is in constant flux.

Middle English Sermons  September 6, 2001 Commemoration of Allen Gardiner, founder of the South American Missionary Society, 1851 Commemoration of Albert Schweitzer, Teacher, Physician, Missionary, 1965   Of the access for us, at any rate, to the spirit of life -- us who were born in Christendom, and are in touch, conscious or unconscious, with Christianity -- this is the true account. Questions over which the churches spend so much labour and time -- questions about the Trinity, about the godhead of Christ, about the procession of the Holy Ghost -- are not vital; what is vital is the doctrine of access to the spirit of life through Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[each candidate behaved well in the hope of being judged worthy of election.
