The prophets, for all their passionate sincerity, for all their courageous simplifyings of the Gospel, will meet many deaf adders who stop their ears. We must reckon with this certain fact, and refuse to be daunted by it. But also there comes a point where accommodation can go no further. It is the Gospel we have to present, however we do it. We cannot hope to do it unless we walk humbly with the modern man, as well as with God, unless we are much more eager to learn from him and about him, than to instruct him. God help us, it is all very difficult. But was there ever a task better worth trying to do, or one in which, whether we fail or succeed, we more surely find our freedom?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3379]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If life were measured by accomplishments, most of us would die in infancy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/368]]></link><description><![CDATA[If life were measured by accomplishments, most of us would die in infancy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So many men, so little time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27003]]></link><description><![CDATA[So many men, so little time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43931]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than destroy it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pale child, Eve, leading her mother, Night. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14263]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pale child, Eve, leading her mother, Night.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Probably, they anticipate that down the line there will be a point that confrontation will be inevitable.
