They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man that hails you Tom or Jack, And proves by thumps upon your back  How he esteems your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16773]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man that hails you Tom or Jack, And proves by thumps upon your back  How he esteems your merit,   Is such a friend, that one had need    Be very much his friend indeed     To pardon or to bear it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No party will be able to get everything it wanted.

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its roots in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride -- these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody objects to a woman being a good writer or sculptor or geneticist if at the same time she manages ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4043]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody objects to a woman being a good writer or sculptor or geneticist if at the same time she manages to be a good wife, good mother, good looking, good tempered, well groomed and unaggressive]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9341]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born.
