But the constraint of which I have been speaking is of a wholly different kind; it is a constraint to be pure-minded and loyal-hearted, to be kind and true and tender, and to love my neighbour as myself. And what could possibly be meant by saying that any reality of an impersonal kind could exercise over me such a constraint as that? I have never been able to see that it could mean anything at all. I have never been able to see how any being that is not a person could possess a moral and spiritual claim over me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8156</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[Ev'n wit's a burthen, when it talks too long. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61817]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ev'n wit's a burthen, when it talks too long.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61817</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, how bitter it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1330]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, how bitter it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64151]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not even piety will stay wrinkles, nor the encroachments of age, nor the advance of death, which cannot be resisted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50305]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not even piety will stay wrinkles, nor the encroachments of age, nor the advance of death, which cannot be resisted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unix is the answer, but only if you phrase the question very carefully.

The ministry of Jesus, therefore, culminating in His death, is essential to Paul's whole thought. If in certain aspects of his theology it is the death that bulks most largely -- because it seemed to him to be the purest and most moving expression of what the whole life meant -- he is quite aware that the ethical impulse given by the example and teaching of Jesus is of the very stuff of the Christian life. He alludes to the Gospel story but sparingly, but those who study his teaching most closely become aware that he is himself acting and speaking all through under the impulse of the life and teaching of Jesus. If he refuses to "know Christ after the flesh," it means that he will not risk a harking back to the temporary conditions of the Galilean ministry when the Spirit of Christ is clearly leading out into new fields. The issues of that ministry have been gathered up in the new experience of "Christ in me", and that experience gives a living Christ, who leads ever onward those who will adventure with Him, and not a prophet of the past, whose words might pass into a dead tradition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three years ago, the hand of terrorism claimed the lives of thousands of innocent people at the World Trade Center ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29767]]></link><description><![CDATA[Three years ago, the hand of terrorism claimed the lives of thousands of innocent people at the World Trade Center in New York.
