Just in the same way, dogmas and creeds cannot bring Christian unity, because human minds are not so uniformly created that they can unite in a single dogma or creed. Even our understanding of Christ Himself cannot be the basis of unity, because He is too big to be understood by any one person or group, and therefore our limited understandings do not always coincide. One emphasizes this point about Christ, another that; and this again becomes the cause of divisions. If we will only take our fellowship with Christ as the center of Christian faith, all Christians will realize their oneness... All our fellowship, however varied, is with the same Lord, and the same Saviour is our one Head.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's very important that they keep us thinking and keep us learning.

I believe that humanity is master of its own fate... Before we can change direction, we have to question many of the assumptions underlying our current philosophy. Assumptions like bigger is better; you can't stop progress; no speed is too fast; globalization is good. Then we have to replace them with some different assumptions: small is beautiful; roots and traditions are worth preserving; variety is the spice of life; the only work worth doing is meaningful work; biodiversity is the necessary pre-condition for human survival.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are losing your leisure, look out, you may be losing your soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24614]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are losing your leisure, look out, you may be losing your soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I threw him back.

But, since we are concerned with an occurrence which is by hypothesis unique in certain relevant aspects, we are most unlikely to be able to give confident answers to them. [Paul M.] van Buren's remarks about biology and the twentieth century are nothing more than rhetoric or, at best, are simply empirical statements about his own psychology. The first century knew as well as the twentieth that dead bodies do not naturally come to life again, and no amount of twentieth-century knowledge about natural processes can tell us what may happen by supernatural means.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps life is just that... a dream and a fear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64987]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perhaps life is just that... a dream and a fear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17939]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17939</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything great and intelligent is in the minority ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything great and intelligent is in the minority]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capitalists are motivated not chiefly by the desire to consume wealth or indulge their appetites, but by the freedom and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15796]]></link><description><![CDATA[Capitalists are motivated not chiefly by the desire to consume wealth or indulge their appetites, but by the freedom and power to consummate their entrepreneurial ideas.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am all the daughters of my father's house, And all the brothers too. -Twelfth Night.

As a defenseman, I look at scoring negatively, but it works both ways. I wonder about the expectations though. I played in Sweden, without a red line, and I don't think the game was faster. On the other hand, I wasn't playing with the best players in the world, as in the NHL. We'll adjust to the new icing rules and in a few years we won't remember what it was like before.

This, I believe, is partly due to man's enormous technical successes, which make him feel master of the human situation. But it is also partly due to our scholars and experts. By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing about this group is, when you look at them individually, there is no 'stunning' talent.
