It is hard, under the pressure of haste, uneasiness, ill-temper, self-complacency, and conceit, to continue intending justice. Power corrupts; the "insolence of office" will creep in. We see it so clearly in our superiors; is it unlikely that our inferiors see it in us? How many of those who have been over us did not sometimes (perhaps often) need our forgiveness? Be sure that we likewise need the forgiveness of those that are under us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the church:  By God's grace we live in a time of rediscovery of the Church ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the church:  By God's grace we live in a time of rediscovery of the Church and of the wholeness of the Church. We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Live fast, die young, leave a good-looking corpse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24823]]></link><description><![CDATA[Live fast, die young, leave a good-looking corpse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Monica, Mother of Augustine of Hippo, 387  Let the Gospels speak.

Of what I have learnt from these documents in the course of my long task, I will say nothing now. Only this, that they bear the seal of the Son of Man and God, they are the Magna Charta of the human spirit. Were we to devote to their comprehension a little of the selfless enthusiasm that is now expended on the riddle of our physical surroundings, we would cease to say that Christianity is coming to an end -- we might even feel that it had only just begun.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The organization is great, I liked the sailing centre but the race conditions were very difficult.
