Those who are fascinated by the supposed superiority of the mystic soul might profitably compile a list of its characteristics and place them side by side with those of Christ. The results would probably expose a surprising conclusion. There is, in fact, no provision for a "privileged class" in genuine Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One must be a god to be able to tell successes from failures without making a mistake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64751]]></link><description><![CDATA[One must be a god to be able to tell successes from failures without making a mistake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66343]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law hath not been dead, though it hath slept. -Measure for Measure.

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sidney Crosby is going to play where Sidney Crosby and his agent decide he's going to play.
