For the atom's soul isnothing but energy. Spirit blazes in the dullest of clay. The life ofevery woman or man-the heart of it-is pure and holy joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You must pass your days in song.

You would be surprised if you knew how soon one begins to feel the shortness of the tether: of how many things, even in middle life, we have to say, "No time for that", "Too late now" and "Not for me". But Nature herself forbids you [young people] to share that experience. A more Christian attitude, which can be attained at any age, is that of leaving futurity in God's hands. We may as well, for God will certainly retain it whether we leave it to Him or not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The return we reap from generous actions is not always evident. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17256]]></link><description><![CDATA[The return we reap from generous actions is not always evident.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He makes no friend who never made a foe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51730]]></link><description><![CDATA[He makes no friend who never made a foe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great pity were it if this beneficence of Providence should be marr'd in the ordering, so as to justly merit ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great pity were it if this beneficence of Providence should be marr'd in the ordering, so as to justly merit the Reflection of the old proverb, that though God sends us meat, yet the D------does cooks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by,  And that has made ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59616]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by,  And that has made all the difference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis pleasant to stand on shore and watch others labouring in a stormy sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50601]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis pleasant to stand on shore and watch others labouring in a stormy sea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't do literary work for the rest of this year because I'm meditating another lawsuit and looking around for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24321]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can't do literary work for the rest of this year because I'm meditating another lawsuit and looking around for a defendant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are excited about finalizing our new location in the Greenville area. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37428]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are excited about finalizing our new location in the Greenville area.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the church:  By God's grace we live in a time of rediscovery of the Church ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the church:  By God's grace we live in a time of rediscovery of the Church and of the wholeness of the Church. We see more clearly than often has been the case that ecclesiology and christology are one. The ekklesia, the community of believers, has as its first and foremost qualification that it is that community which, as community, belongs to Christ and is in Christ, and as such is the sphere of God's salvation, redemption, and reconciliation, and of Christ's rulership. This is the archetypal reality of the Church. To see and seize this essential point is a great blessing. This blessing, however, could as well become a curse, if it remained a theme of theological meditation and self-contemplation. This new knowledge is not real knowledge if it is not accompanied by a horror about the alienation of the empirical Church from its own fundamental reality and by a deep longing for a tangible manifestation of the Church's true nature. This horror and this longing are the deeper motives which are operating in many of the events and passionate discussions around the place and responsibility of the laity as an organic part of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6663</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Avoid self-righteousness like the devil- nothing is so self-blinding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56797]]></link><description><![CDATA[Avoid self-righteousness like the devil- nothing is so self-blinding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Philosophy is a game with objectives and no rules.
