The Christian is not a homo religiosus but a man, pure and simple, just as Jesus became man... It is only by living completely in this world that one learns to believe. One must abandon every attempt to make something of oneself, whether it be a saint, a converted sinner, a churchman, a righteous man, or an unrighteous one, a sick man or a healthy one... This is what I mean by worldliness -- taking life in one's stride, with all its duties and problems, its successes and failures, its experiences and helplessness... How can success make us arrogant or failure lead us astray, when we participate in the sufferings of God by living in this world?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The political machine works because it is a united minority acting against a divided majority. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27540]]></link><description><![CDATA[The political machine works because it is a united minority acting against a divided majority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Among the defects of the bill [Lord Derby's] which are numerous, one provision is conspicuous by its presence and another ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/157]]></link><description><![CDATA[Among the defects of the bill [Lord Derby's] which are numerous, one provision is conspicuous by its presence and another by its absence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man's ability may be strengthened or increased by culture ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38326]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man's ability may be strengthened or increased by culture]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing in Nature's sober found, But an eternal Health goes round.  Fill up the Bowl then, fill it high-- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13000]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing in Nature's sober found, But an eternal Health goes round.  Fill up the Bowl then, fill it high--   Fill all the Glasses there; for why    Should every Creature Drink but I?     Why, Man of Morals, tell me why?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that loveth a book will never want for a faithful friend, a wholesome counselor, a cheerful companion, an effectual ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4498]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that loveth a book will never want for a faithful friend, a wholesome counselor, a cheerful companion, an effectual comforter]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a market with great potential. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32659]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a market with great potential.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Aim at the sun and you may not reach it; but your arrow will fly far higher than if you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2339]]></link><description><![CDATA[Aim at the sun and you may not reach it; but your arrow will fly far higher than if you had aimed at an object on a level with yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As much as we all love the show, we do have to run a business. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35283]]></link><description><![CDATA[As much as we all love the show, we do have to run a business.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Methinks I have a great desire to a bottle of hay.
