But, instead of opening the windows to the glory of the sunshine so evidently there, instead of being incited to a hugeness of faith by what Christ has already done for us, we can't believe that there can be anything more, or that even He can work, for us, anything better. That first foretaste satisfies us. And so we camp for life out on the confines of the Kingdom, and never press on to inherit what is there and meant for us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[. . . what is human and the same about the males and females classified as Homo sapiens is much ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27020]]></link><description><![CDATA[. . . what is human and the same about the males and females classified as Homo sapiens is much greater than the differences.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But thus: if powers divine Behold our human actions, as they do,  I doubt not then but innocence shall ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20964]]></link><description><![CDATA[But thus: if powers divine Behold our human actions, as they do,  I doubt not then but innocence shall make   False accusation blush and tyranny    Tremble at patience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20964</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing we long for, that we are For one transcendent moment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11954]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thing we long for, that we are For one transcendent moment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2632]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we consider eternity, into that time never entered; eternity is not an everlasting flux of time, but time is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14199]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we consider eternity, into that time never entered; eternity is not an everlasting flux of time, but time is as a short parenthesis in a long period; and eternity had been the same as it is, though time had never been.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is like the fox, who effaces his tracks in the sand with his tail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26506]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is like the fox, who effaces his tracks in the sand with his tail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and animals as that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14230]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men, and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help. -Albert Schweitzer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know you're getting old when all the names in your black book have M.

By means of them the revelation of God to men was made, or appeared to be made, less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Judicial judgment must take deep account of the day before yesterday in order that yesterday may not paralyze today. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46301]]></link><description><![CDATA[Judicial judgment must take deep account of the day before yesterday in order that yesterday may not paralyze today.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The war in Iraq will end, our troops will come home, Bush will be impeached and he will be brought ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23033]]></link><description><![CDATA[The war in Iraq will end, our troops will come home, Bush will be impeached and he will be brought to justice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hope, like faith, is nothing if it is not courageous; it is nothing if it is not ridiculous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53517]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hope, like faith, is nothing if it is not courageous; it is nothing if it is not ridiculous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Zeal will do more than knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62611]]></link><description><![CDATA[Zeal will do more than knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She is not made to be the admiration of all, but the happiness of one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27246]]></link><description><![CDATA[She is not made to be the admiration of all, but the happiness of one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63185]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot hold a torch to light another's path without brightening our own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56736]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cannot hold a torch to light another's path without brightening our own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It really hasn't settled in yet that it's almost over.
