Many otherwise intelligent people have never read with adult attention either the four Gospels or the Letters of the New Testament. When they so do, to my certain knowledge they not infrequently become converted. Indeed, I know of no adult who has seriously studied the New Testament and rejected the stories of Christ as mythical or the evidence of changed lives in the Letters as mere fabrication.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7832</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  Every single time a sacrament is celebrated, God takes action, there and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7689]]></link><description><![CDATA[THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  Every single time a sacrament is celebrated, God takes action, there and then -- does something, not on Calvary, but in that church. And what He does is to come to each soul partaking in the Sacrament and to assure it that He stands to the best and biggest of His promises and to the fullness of His grace in Christ... de-universalizes the Scriptures and individualizes them, makes them a personal promise, couched no longer in general terms but offered to very you and very me, as individually as if they covered no other but referred to you and me alone. We may be cold and dead and unresponsive. None the less, something happens in the Sacrament. For God stands to His side of the Covenant, whether we stand to ours or not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be stirring as the time, be fire with fire; Threaten the threat'ner, and outface the brow  Of bragging horror. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51351]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be stirring as the time, be fire with fire; Threaten the threat'ner, and outface the brow  Of bragging horror.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wind puffs up empty bladders; opinion, fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wind puffs up empty bladders; opinion, fools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That conceit, elegantly expressed by the Emperor Charles V., in his instructions to the King, his son, "that fortune hath ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16570]]></link><description><![CDATA[That conceit, elegantly expressed by the Emperor Charles V., in his instructions to the King, his son, "that fortune hath somewhat the nature of a woman, that if she be too much wooed she is the farther off."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Verizon is putting an obvious emphasis on communities with greater resources and is ignoring large segments of the state, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39450]]></link><description><![CDATA[Verizon is putting an obvious emphasis on communities with greater resources and is ignoring large segments of the state,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64366]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even a cursory glance at history should convince one that individual crimes committed for selfish motives play a quite insignificant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47420]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even a cursory glance at history should convince one that individual crimes committed for selfish motives play a quite insignificant part in the human tragedy, compared to the numbers massacred in unselfish loyalty to one's tribe, nation, dynasty, church, or political ideology, ad majorem gloriam dei. The emphasis is on unselfish. Excepting a small minority of mercenary or sadistic disposition, wars are not fought for personal gain, but out of loyalty and devotion to king, country or cause. Homicide committed for personal reasons is a statistical rarity in all cultures, including our own. Homicide for unselfish reasons, at the risk of one's own life, is the dominant phenomenon of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4748]]></link><description><![CDATA[Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4748</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you think your boss is stupid, remember: you wouldn't have a job if he was any smarter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4774]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you think your boss is stupid, remember: you wouldn't have a job if he was any smarter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4774</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If dirt was trumps, what hands you would hold! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8857]]></link><description><![CDATA[If dirt was trumps, what hands you would hold!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Confusion's cure lives not In these confusions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51480]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confusion's cure lives not In these confusions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51480</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Infidel: In New York, one who does not believe in the Christian religion; in Constantinople, one who does ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Infidel: In New York, one who does not believe in the Christian religion; in Constantinople, one who does]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we’re going to have a good day today, but we should have a good day every time we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52910]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think we’re going to have a good day today, but we should have a good day every time we come to the racetrack.

Some of the pain has been self-inflicted, and some of the things we just couldn’t help. It’d be great to win here today. In a way, it’s just another race, but it’s a big deal to win Daytona and a big deal to win Indy. Really, it’s a big deal to win anywhere.
