We can so easily have talks with people, and they can say we have helped, write us grateful letters, even stand steady for a time till the juice we have put into them runs out; but, we may have brought them no hunger for God -- because that hunger is no ache in our own heart -- nor brought them anywhere near to the end of self.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn    September 13, 1999  Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407  Not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up in life. These are words by which the slanderers of the nature, of the body, the impeachers of our flesh, are completely overthrown... We do not wish to cast aside the body, but corruption: not the flesh, but death. The body is one thing, corruption another; the body is one thing, death another... What is foreign to us is not the body but corruptibility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O coward conscience, how dost thou afflict me! -King Richard III.

"That must be something very terrible and awful. That certainly must rend and tear the life to which God comes. At least, it will separate it and make it unnatural and strange. God fills a bush with His glory and it burns. God enters into the great mountain, and it rocks with earthquake. When he comes to occupy a man, He must distort the humanity which He occupies into some inhuman shape." Instead of that, this new life into which God comes, seems to be the most quietly, naturally human life that was ever seen upon the earth. It glides into its place like sunlight. It seems to make it evident that God and man are essentially so near together, that the meeting of their natures in the life of a God-man is not strange. So always does Christ deal with His own nature, accepting His Divinity as you and I accept our humanity, and letting it shine out through the envelope with which it has most subtly and mysteriously mingled, as the soul is mingled with and shines out through the body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who praises everybody, praises nobody. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48025]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who praises everybody, praises nobody.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're using the Internet today, you're using open source software; you're using Linux. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40465]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're using the Internet today, you're using open source software; you're using Linux.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Furious activity is no substitute for understanding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Furious activity is no substitute for understanding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No nation ever taxed itself into prosperity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21383]]></link><description><![CDATA[No nation ever taxed itself into prosperity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43451]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43451</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm just glad to have another day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37371]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm just glad to have another day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37371</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tell the American people solemnly that the United States will never survive as a happy and fertile oasis of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12208]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tell the American people solemnly that the United States will never survive as a happy and fertile oasis of liberty surrounded by a cruel desert of dictatorship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Frenchman, easy, debonair, and brisk, Give him his lass, his fiddle, and his frisk,  Is always happy, reign ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16614]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Frenchman, easy, debonair, and brisk, Give him his lass, his fiddle, and his frisk,  Is always happy, reign whoever may,   And laughs the sense of mis'ry far away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was about as different from home as I could imagine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41168]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was about as different from home as I could imagine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not playing hard enough, we're not playing mean enough, and we're not finishing plays.
