A well was drilled five thousand feet deep. The result? A gusher.Too many of us operate on the surface. We never go deep enough to findsupernatural resources. The result is, we never operate at our best.

This is, of course, why many otherwise honest intellectual people will construct a neat by-pass around the claim of Jesus to be God. Being people of insight and imagination, they know perfectly well that once to accept such a claim as fact would mean a readjustment of their own purposes and values and affections which they may have no wish to make. To call Jesus the greatest Figure in History or the finest Moral Teacher the world has ever seen commits no one to anything. But once to allow the startled mind to accept as fact that this man is really focused-God may commit anyone to anything! There is every excuse for blundering in the dark, but in the light there is no cover from reality. It is because we strongly sense this, and not merely because we feel that the evidence is ancient and scanty, that we shrink from committing ourselves to such a far-reaching belief as that Jesus Christ was really God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every citizen is king under a citizen king. [Fr., Tout citoyen est roi sous un roi citoyen.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54465]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every citizen is king under a citizen king. [Fr., Tout citoyen est roi sous un roi citoyen.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have concluded it is possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33938]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have concluded it is possible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The true Islam has shown me that a blanket indictment of all white people is as wrong as when whites ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66769]]></link><description><![CDATA[The true Islam has shown me that a blanket indictment of all white people is as wrong as when whites make blanket indictments against blacks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The naming of one man amounts to the exclusion of another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50557]]></link><description><![CDATA[The naming of one man amounts to the exclusion of another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Giving jazz the Congressional seal of approval is a little like making Huck Finn an honorary Boy Scout. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Giving jazz the Congressional seal of approval is a little like making Huck Finn an honorary Boy Scout.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The stars are forth, the moon above the tops Of the snow-shining mountains--Beautiful!  I linger yet with Nature, for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44520]]></link><description><![CDATA[The stars are forth, the moon above the tops Of the snow-shining mountains--Beautiful!  I linger yet with Nature, for the night   Hath been to me a more familiar face    Than that of man; and in her starry shade     Of dim and solitary loveliness      I learn'd the language of another world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have no idea how to classify ourselves.

I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God. All the beauty and truth which I had discovered had come to me as a reflection of his beauty, but I had kept my eyes fixed on the reflection and was always looking at myself. But God had brought me to the point at which I was compelled to turn away from the reflection, both of myself and of the world which could only mirror my own image. During that night the mirror had been broken, and I had felt abandoned because I could no longer gaze upon the image of my own reason and the finite world which it knew. God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It may serve as a comfort to us, in all our calamities and afflictions, that he that loses anything and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8980]]></link><description><![CDATA[It may serve as a comfort to us, in all our calamities and afflictions, that he that loses anything and gets wisdom by it is a gainer by the loss]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We deplore this terrorist act and vow to get the criminals to justice as soon as possible, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36813]]></link><description><![CDATA[We deplore this terrorist act and vow to get the criminals to justice as soon as possible,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am opposed to censorship.
