Genuine authority realizes that it can exist only in the service of Him who alone has authority... The Church does not need brilliant personalities but faithful servants of Jesus and the brethren...   Pastoral authority can be attained only by the servant of Jesus who seeks no power of his own, who himself is a brother among brothers to the authority of the Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Earth took her shining station as a star, In Heaven's dark hall, high up the crowd of worlds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Earth took her shining station as a star, In Heaven's dark hall, high up the crowd of worlds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would prefer as friend a good man ignorant than one more clever who is evil too. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20434]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would prefer as friend a good man ignorant than one more clever who is evil too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nightingale dies for shame if another bird sings better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56125]]></link><description><![CDATA[A nightingale dies for shame if another bird sings better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The power to question is the basis of all human progress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52738]]></link><description><![CDATA[The power to question is the basis of all human progress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sublimity is the echo of a noble mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sublimity is the echo of a noble mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/378]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing dries sooner than a tear. [Lat., Nihil enim lacryma citius arescit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing dries sooner than a tear. [Lat., Nihil enim lacryma citius arescit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are my honey, honeysuckle, I am the bee. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3902]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are my honey, honeysuckle, I am the bee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So live that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17901]]></link><description><![CDATA[So live that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It doesn't matter where we play.
