It cannot make itself the slave of men, not even though the men are Peter and Paul and John; no, not even though it were the Son of Man Himself. It resents dictation, not willfully nor wantonly, but because it must; and it resents it all the more when it claims to be inspired. If, therefore, the Atonement can only be received by those who are prepared from the threshold to acknowledge the inspiration and the consequent authority of Scripture, it can never be received by modern men at all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8006</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For I light my candle from their torches. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25049]]></link><description><![CDATA[For I light my candle from their torches.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066  [He said:] That all possible kinds of mortification, if they were void of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066  [He said:] That all possible kinds of mortification, if they were void of the love of God, could not efface a single sin..

It is only in the secondary esoteric sphere of the religious life that we find guarantees and a general attempt to compel faith. To demand guarantees and proofs of faith is to fail to understand its very nature by denying the free, heroic act which it inspires. In really authentic and original religious experience, to the existence of which the history of the human spirit bears abundant witness, faith springs up without the aid of guarantees and compelling proofs, without any external coercion or the use of authority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hate shuts her soul when dove-eyed mercy pleads. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27368]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hate shuts her soul when dove-eyed mercy pleads.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True Love burns the brightest, But the brightest flames leave the deepest scars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20181]]></link><description><![CDATA[True Love burns the brightest, But the brightest flames leave the deepest scars.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Swallow, the Serpent, and the Court of JusticeA swallow, returning from abroad and especially fond of dwelling with men, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1587]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Swallow, the Serpent, and the Court of JusticeA swallow, returning from abroad and especially fond of dwelling with men, built herself a nest in the wall of a Court of Justice and there hatched seven young birds.
