The Christian is not a homo religiosus but a man, pure and simple, just as Jesus became man... It is only by living completely in this world that one learns to believe. One must abandon every attempt to make something of oneself, whether it be a saint, a converted sinner, a churchman, a righteous man, or an unrighteous one, a sick man or a healthy one... This is what I mean by worldliness -- taking life in one's stride, with all its duties and problems, its successes and failures, its experiences and helplessness... How can success make us arrogant or failure lead us astray, when we participate in the sufferings of God by living in this world?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18002]]></link><description><![CDATA[A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your goal should be out of reach but not out of sight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your goal should be out of reach but not out of sight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If things on earth may be to heaven resembled, It must be love, pure, constant, undissembled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25623]]></link><description><![CDATA[If things on earth may be to heaven resembled, It must be love, pure, constant, undissembled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the President is, is a glorified public relations man who spends his time flattering, kissing and kicking people to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47459]]></link><description><![CDATA[All the President is, is a glorified public relations man who spends his time flattering, kissing and kicking people to get them to do what they are supposed to do anyway.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a mathematical fact that the casting of this pebble from my hand alters the centre of gravity of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18232]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a mathematical fact that the casting of this pebble from my hand alters the centre of gravity of the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human beings are the only creatures on earth that allow their children to come back home. -Bill Cosby. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human beings are the only creatures on earth that allow their children to come back home. -Bill Cosby.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is your mirror and your mind is a magnet.

And hence it is that worse passions, or a worse degree of them are to be found in persons of great religious zeal than in others that made no pretenses to it. History also furnishes us with instances of persons of great piety and devotion who have fallen into great delusions and deceived both themselves and others. The occasion of their fall was this: ...
