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 ideal attitude is to be physically loose and mentally tight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3460]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ideal attitude is to be physically loose and mentally tight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since word is thrall, and thought is free, Keep well thy tongue, I counsel thee. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59482]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since word is thrall, and thought is free, Keep well thy tongue, I counsel thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61748]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61748</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot hammer a girl into anything.

In the winter of 1824, there set in a great flood upon that town--the tide rose to an incredible height: the waves rushed in upon the houses, and everything was threatened with destruction. In the midst of this sublime and terrible storm, Dame Partington, who lived upon the beach, was seen at the door of her house with mop and pattens, trundling her mop, squeezing out the sea water, and vigorously pushing away the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic was roused. Mrs. Partington's spirit was up; but I need not tell you that the contest was unequal. The Atlantic Ocean beat Mrs. Partington. She was excellent at a slop or a puddle, but she should not have meddled with a tempest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing dries sooner than a tear. [Lat., Nihil enim lacryma citius arescit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing dries sooner than a tear. [Lat., Nihil enim lacryma citius arescit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13562]]></link><description><![CDATA[Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intelligence is the faculty of making artificial objects, especially tools to make tools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intelligence is the faculty of making artificial objects, especially tools to make tools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who are faithless know the pleasures of love; it is the faithful who know love's tragedies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15051]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who are faithless know the pleasures of love; it is the faithful who know love's tragedies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After a surprising Divisional Playoff weekend, I anticipate more excitement and for two more riveting games to be played before ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30935]]></link><description><![CDATA[After a surprising Divisional Playoff weekend, I anticipate more excitement and for two more riveting games to be played before the Super Bowl contenders are decided.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Twelve dancers are dancing, and taking no rest, And closely their hands together are press'd;  And soon as a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Twelve dancers are dancing, and taking no rest, And closely their hands together are press'd;  And soon as a dance has come to a close,   Another begins, and each merrily goes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To the institutional investor, there's a lot at stake this year if Bush doesn't win re-election, ...
