It is almost as offensive to modern man, brought up in the atmosphere of relativism, in which tolerance is regarded almost as the highest of the virtues. But we must not suppose that this claim to universal validity is something that can quietly be removed from the Gospel without changing it into something entirely different from what it is... Jesus' life, his method, and his message do not make sense, unless they are interpreted in the light of his own conviction that he was in fact the final and decisive word of God to men... For the human sickness there is one specific remedy, and this is it. There is no other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How bold one gets when one is sure of being loved! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54365]]></link><description><![CDATA[How bold one gets when one is sure of being loved!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Persons are judged to be great because of the positive qualities they possess, not because of the absence of faults ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23478]]></link><description><![CDATA[Persons are judged to be great because of the positive qualities they possess, not because of the absence of faults]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty is also to be found in a day's work. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22216]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty is also to be found in a day's work.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now, ye familiar spirits that are culled Out of the powerful legions under earth,  Help me this once, that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19171]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now, ye familiar spirits that are culled Out of the powerful legions under earth,  Help me this once, that France may get the field.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Something that has always puzzled me all my life is why, when I am in special need of help, the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Something that has always puzzled me all my life is why, when I am in special need of help, the good deed is usually done by somebody on whom I have no claim.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blasted with excess of light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25055]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blasted with excess of light.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great hate follows great love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18828]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great hate follows great love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the artist, then, life's hungry man, the glutton of eternity, beauty's miser, glory's slave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17595]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the artist, then, life's hungry man, the glutton of eternity, beauty's miser, glory's slave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are his, To serve him nobly in the common cause,  True to the death, but not to be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55213]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are his, To serve him nobly in the common cause,  True to the death, but not to be his slaves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We went against one of the best teams we've faced all year, and played one of the best games we've ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28594]]></link><description><![CDATA[We went against one of the best teams we've faced all year, and played one of the best games we've played in many years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63060]]></link><description><![CDATA[If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My life is light, waiting for the death wind, Like a feather on the back of my hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11389]]></link><description><![CDATA[My life is light, waiting for the death wind, Like a feather on the back of my hand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Fox and the GoatA fox one day fell into a deep well and could find no means of escape. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1536]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Fox and the GoatA fox one day fell into a deep well and could find no means of escape. A Goat, overcome with thirst, came to the same well, and seeing the Fox, inquired if the water was good. Concealing his sad plight under a merry guise, the Fox indulged in a lavish praise of the water, saying it was excellent beyond measure, and encouraging him to descend. The Goat, mindful only of his thirst, thoughtlessly jumped down, but just as he drank, the Fox informed him of the difficulty they were both in and suggested a scheme for their common escape. If, said he, you will place your forefeet upon the wall and bend your head, I will run up your back and escape, and will help you out afterwards. The Goat readily assented and the Fox leaped upon his back. Steadying himself with the Goat's horns, he safely reached the mouth of the well and made off as fast as he could. When the Goat upbraided him for breaking his promise, he turned around and cried out, You foolish old fellow! If you had as many brains in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you would never have gone down before you had inspected the way up, nor have exposed yourself to dangers from which you had no means of escape. Look before you leap.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64873]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most dramatic entrance for an autograph was probably when I was in Edmonton Alberta Canada or... whatever, and she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15295]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most dramatic entrance for an autograph was probably when I was in Edmonton Alberta Canada or... whatever, and she jumped on my back and asked for the autograph.
