It has failed to understand that the world is not for the beholding. It is for hearing. It is not legible, but audible. Our science has always desired to monitor, measure, abstract, and castrate meaning, forgetting that life is full of noise and that death alone is silent: work noise, noise of man, and noise of beast. Noise bought, sold, or prohibited. Nothing essential happens in the absence of noise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The holydays of joy are the vigils of sorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51024]]></link><description><![CDATA[The holydays of joy are the vigils of sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everyone is gifted - but some people never open their package ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17407]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everyone is gifted - but some people never open their package]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty has a lot to do with character. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40041]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty has a lot to do with character.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every politician should have been born an orphan and remain a bachelor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47241]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every politician should have been born an orphan and remain a bachelor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47241</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who can blind lover's eyes? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51842]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who can blind lover's eyes?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can only be young once.

But too often, instead of being the radical, standing against the shifting sands of relativism, he subsides into merely maintaing the status quo. If it is true that evil is evil, that God hates it to the point of the cross, and that there is a moral law fixed in what God is in Himself, then Christians should be the first into the field against what is wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Went in at the one eare and out at the other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Went in at the one eare and out at the other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before a cure is found we will all have been affected one way or another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before a cure is found we will all have been affected one way or another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We know we still can get a lot better.

Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.  ... Jeremy Taylor  August 14, 2000 Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7869</guid></item></channel></rss>
