You have only so much Religion as serves to disquiet you, to show you a handwriting on the wall, to interrupt your pleasures, and to appear as a death's-head at all your feasts, but not Religion enough to give you a taste and feeling of its pleasures. You dare not wholly neglect Religion, but then you take no more than is just sufficient to keep you from being a terror to yourself, and you are as loth to be very good as you are fearful to be very bad.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bond market is very excited about this inflation data. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42205]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bond market is very excited about this inflation data.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How many observe Christ's birthday!

The sensitive visitor to the mesas of Los Alamos is almost sure to meditate on the experience of that gifted man, Klaus Fuchs. Though his work in the laboratories was outstanding, his decision concerning the use of what he knew was disastrous. What if, in addition to his scientific competence, the younger Fuchs had shared something of the Christian conviction of his father, Emil Fuchs? Much of the subsequent history of our earth might then have been different.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was messy, but he finished the game.
