We were coming to know that the Christian faith is not primarily an ethic; it is not the struggle to do good or be good, but an encounter with Christ, of which morality and ethical living are by-products.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble is not that players have sex the night before a game.

We modern pagans have to choose between that divine order, and the grey, dead, irresponsible, chaotic universe of atheism. And the tragedy is that we may make that choice without knowing it -- not by clear conviction but by vague drifting, by losing interest in Him. A nominal deist will say: "Yes, of course there must be some sort of Force that created the galaxy. But it's childish to imagine that It has any personal relation to me!" In that belief atheism exists as an undiagnosed disease. The man who says, "One God," and does not care, is an atheist in his heart. The man who speaks of God and will not recognize him in the burning bush -- that man is an atheist, though he speak with the tongues of men or angels, and appear in his pew every Sunday, and make large contributions to the church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm as pure as the driven slush. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52597]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm as pure as the driven slush.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It allows us to go out and sweep the city at a much faster pace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31122]]></link><description><![CDATA[It allows us to go out and sweep the city at a much faster pace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Habits of close attention, thinking heads, Become more rare as dissipation spreads,  Till authors hear at length one general ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3527]]></link><description><![CDATA[Habits of close attention, thinking heads, Become more rare as dissipation spreads,  Till authors hear at length one general cry   Tickle and entertain us, or we die!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Often, the less there is to justify a traditional custom, the harder it is to get rid of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Often, the less there is to justify a traditional custom, the harder it is to get rid of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The things which the child loves remain in the domain of the heart until old age.
