But this tension is not something that concerns the Church and the world as though they are things which exist outside us and apart from us, which we can consider and observe and discuss and have theories about. The tension between the Church and the world exists within us and is the very fiber of our being, and neither the one nor the other is superficial or trivial. For we are, all of us, of the earth, earthy; and we are also baptized members of Christ and His Church. It is precisely because we belong to two worlds that our lives consist in insecurity -- that we are, in fact, a drama, the final act of which, the judgement of reward or punishment, heaven or hell, is hidden from us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had been told by other participating districts to expect an initial enrollment of 500 students. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39773]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had been told by other participating districts to expect an initial enrollment of 500 students.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old Rose is dead, that good old man, We ne'er shall see him more;  He used to wear an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2752]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old Rose is dead, that good old man, We ne'er shall see him more;  He used to wear an old blue coat   All buttoned down before.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In judging others a man laboureth in vain; he often erreth, and easily falleth into sin; but in judging and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7660]]></link><description><![CDATA[In judging others a man laboureth in vain; he often erreth, and easily falleth into sin; but in judging and examining himself he always laboureth to good purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is there that you enter upon so favorably as not to repent of the undertaking and the accomplishment of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23537]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is there that you enter upon so favorably as not to repent of the undertaking and the accomplishment of your wish? [Lat., Quid tam dextro pede concipis ut te conatus non poeniteat votique peracti?]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59820]]></link><description><![CDATA[...when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never take a person's dignity: it is worth everything to them, and nothing to you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never take a person's dignity: it is worth everything to them, and nothing to you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whose ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54165]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust.
