His life is reproduced in their lives, so they also are servants. But this ministry is exercised in and towards the Church, so as to enable the Church itself to carry out the ministry of the Servant. The Messiah came as a Servant; his ministers are servants; and the Church he created is a Servant-Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8253</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65277]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature is not human hearted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43751]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature is not human hearted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history - with the possible exceptions of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9590]]></link><description><![CDATA[A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history - with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dr. Phil was very helpful and caring.

If he went out to the Ahaggar plateau, it was not only to find but also to proclaim God, thereby teaching the gospel in a way which desert people could understand. After his death, the example set by this hermit was followed by others who, far from settling in the desert places of the Sahara, set out to mingle with the peopled deserts of the great cities, there to preach the gospel by their example and their very presence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sense is our helmet, wit is but the plume; The plume exposes, 'tis our helmet saves.  Sense is the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sense is our helmet, wit is but the plume; The plume exposes, 'tis our helmet saves.  Sense is the diamond, weighty, solid, sound;   When cut by wit, it casts a brighter beam;    Yet, wit apart, it is a diamond still.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be wholly devoted to some intellectual exercise is to have succeeded in life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64179]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be wholly devoted to some intellectual exercise is to have succeeded in life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cats have a scam going - you buy the food, they eat the food, they go away; that's the deal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66694]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cats have a scam going - you buy the food, they eat the food, they go away; that's the deal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anothers bread costs deare. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49134]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anothers bread costs deare.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To give somebody your time is the biggest gift you can give. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66223]]></link><description><![CDATA[To give somebody your time is the biggest gift you can give.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[There] is an increasing sense of what can be called "legal pollution." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13316]]></link><description><![CDATA[[There] is an increasing sense of what can be called "legal pollution."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just have to get as ready as I can be for that match. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32184]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just have to get as ready as I can be for that match.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['We must do something' is the unanimous refrain.
