The difference lies not in the respective natures of savagery and civilization, but in their attendant circumstances, institutions, and so forth. The difference, therefore, does not operate in every sense, but it does in most of them. Even the most civilized peoples, in short, can be fired with passionate hatred for each other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be honest, we've had no complaints from people with disabilities about being unable to vote with our current voting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37256]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be honest, we've had no complaints from people with disabilities about being unable to vote with our current voting system.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do not ask people if they are illegal.

Righteousness comes back when man by faith is brought to walk with God again, and to give Him His true place by acting or being acted upon in all things according to His will. Anything, therefore, not of faith is sin. And all such sin is bondage. Self-will is bondage, for self-will or independence of God means dependence on a creature; and we cannot be dependent on a creature, be it what it may, without (more or less) becoming subject to it. What has not been given up for money, or for some creature's love? But who has ever thus served the creature more than the Creator without waking at last to feel he is a bondman? I say nothing of the worse bondage which comes from our self-will, in the indulgence of our own thoughts, or passions, or affections. Even the very energies of faith, while, as yet unchastened, it acts from self, ... may only bring forth more bondage... Who but God can set men free? And He sets them free as they walk with Him. All independence of Him is darkness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a woman except what she builds in a man's heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27209]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a woman except what she builds in a man's heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What sane person could live in this world and not be crazy? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54684]]></link><description><![CDATA[What sane person could live in this world and not be crazy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29468]]></link><description><![CDATA[Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The closest to perfection a person ever comes is when he fills out a job application form. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46116]]></link><description><![CDATA[The closest to perfection a person ever comes is when he fills out a job application form.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is with the approach of winter that cats... wear their richest fur and assume an air of sumptuous and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5346]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is with the approach of winter that cats... wear their richest fur and assume an air of sumptuous and delightful opulence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my day, we didn't have self-esteem, we had self-respect... and no. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2247]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my day, we didn't have self-esteem, we had self-respect... and no.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go ahead, make my day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44275]]></link><description><![CDATA[Go ahead, make my day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mary had a little lamb and the doctor fainted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mary had a little lamb and the doctor fainted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything is in the hands of God.

Its core was the conviction that, in thus extending the range of western liberal culture and developing its assumptions, they were in effect establishing on earth that which would grow into the kingdom of God. Some put it sharply but un-Biblically: "building the kingdom"; others, of a more secular turn of mind, echoed J. A. Symonds' hymn, "These Things Shall Be". That whole view exists today only as debris, for it has foundered on the rocks, not so much of human sin, as of the contradictions and complexities of the very western culture that was the substance of its belief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60356]]></link><description><![CDATA[All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Observe your enemies, for they first find your faults. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15432]]></link><description><![CDATA[Observe your enemies, for they first find your faults.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066 When night comes, list thy deeds; make plain the way 'Twixt heaven and thee; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6501]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Edward the Confessor, 1066 When night comes, list thy deeds; make plain the way 'Twixt heaven and thee; block it not with delays;  But perfect all before thou sleep'st: then say:  There's one sun more strung on my Bead of days.
