And until we understand the Gospel, the good news about our brother-king -- until we understand Him, until we have His Spirit, promised so freely to them that ask it -- all the Epistles, the words of men who were full of Him, and wrote out of that fullness, who loved Him so utterly that by that very love they were lifted into the air of pure reason and right, and would die for Him, without two thoughts about it, in the very simplicity of no choice -- the Letters, I say, of such men are to us a sealed book. Until we love the Lord so as to do what He tells us, we have no right to an opinion about what one of those men meant; for all they wrote is about things beyond us. The simplest woman who tries not to judge her neighbor, or not to be anxious for the morrow, will better know what is best to know, than the best-read bishop without that one simple outgoing of his highest nature in the effort to do the will of Him who thus spoke.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988 Eternal Lord, how faint and small Our greatest, strongest thoughts must seem To ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7164]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988 Eternal Lord, how faint and small Our greatest, strongest thoughts must seem To Thee, who overseest all, And leads us through Life's shallow stream. How tangled are our straightest ways; How dimly flares our brightest star; How earthbound is our highest praise To Thee, who sees us as we are. Our feet are slow where Thine are fast; Thy kiss of grace meets lips of stone; And we admit Thy love at last To hearts that have none of their own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63255]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nay, but make haste, the better foot before. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18783]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nay, but make haste, the better foot before.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If most men and women were forced to rely upon physical charm to attract lovers, their sexual lives would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5768]]></link><description><![CDATA[If most men and women were forced to rely upon physical charm to attract lovers, their sexual lives would be not only meager but in a youth-worshiping country like America painfully brief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discontent is the first necessity of progress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12414]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discontent is the first necessity of progress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A greedy father has thieves for children ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18290]]></link><description><![CDATA[A greedy father has thieves for children]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66001]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night.
