In this he is hampered by a load of contradictory and absurd assumptions of the school that he follows, which throws him into all manner of difficulty. Einstein has such a faculty for embracing both sides of a contradiction that one would have to be of the same frame of mind to follow his thought, it is so peculiarly his own. The whole Relativity theory is as easy to follow as the path of a bat in the air at night.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In university they don't tell you that the greater part of the law is learning to tolerate fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59425]]></link><description><![CDATA[In university they don't tell you that the greater part of the law is learning to tolerate fools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coming off a tough win against Minuteman, it's good to get a win against Swampscott over here.

Repeatedly, the light has shone forth in the darkness, held aloft by hands that perished in the destruction of the institution that failed. Christians tend to defend the institution of their own creation with tenacity. It is institutional Christianity that has often shackled the Church... Many of the missionary institutions of the Church are expendable. They should always be treated as expendable.  ... Leonard M. Outerbridge, The Lost Churches of China July 24, 1996 Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  Men stand much upon the title of 'orthodox', by which is usually understood, not believing the doctrine of Christ or His apostles, but such opinions as are in vogue among such a party, such systems of divinity as have been compiled in haste by those whom we have in admiration; and whatever is not consonant to these little bodies of divinity, tho' possibly it agree well enough with the Word of God, is error and heresy; and whoever maintains it can hardly pass for a Christian among some angry and perverse people. I do not intend to plead for any error, but I would not have Christianity chiefly measured by matters of opinion. I know no such error and heresy as a wicked life... Of the two, I have more hopes of him that denies the divinity of Christ and lives otherwise soberly and righteously and godly in the world, than of the man who owns Christ to be the Son of God and lives like a child of the devil.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No student knows his subject: the most he knows is where and how to find out the things he does ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58054]]></link><description><![CDATA[No student knows his subject: the most he knows is where and how to find out the things he does not know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Johann Sebastian Bach, musician, 1750   The Church knew what the Psalmist knew: music praises God.
