To accept that as the will of our Lord which to us is inconsistent with what we learned to worship in Him already, is to introduce discord into that harmony whose end is to unite our hearts, and make them whole. "Is it for us," says the objector who, by some sleight of will, believes in the word apart from the meaning for which it stands, "to judge the character of our Lord?" I answer, "This very thing He requires of us." He requires of us that we should do Him no injustice. He would come and dwell with us, if we would but open our chambers to receive Him. How shall we receive Him is, avoiding judgement, we hold this or that daub of authority or tradition hanging upon our walls to be the real likeness of our Lord?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know if there are men on the moon, but if there are they must be using the earth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13132]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't know if there are men on the moon, but if there are they must be using the earth as their lunatic asylum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13276]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
