There is no process by which to reach an ideal. There are no tests by which to verify it. It is therefore impossible to frame a proposition about an ideal which can be proved or disproved. It follows that the use of ideals is to be strictly limited to proper cases, and that the attempt to use ideals in social discussion does not deserve serious consideration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The process of scientific discovery is, in effect, a continual flight from wonder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9542]]></link><description><![CDATA[The process of scientific discovery is, in effect, a continual flight from wonder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Sundar Singh of India, Sadhu, Evangelist, Teacher, 1929  For the first two or three years after my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7084]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Sundar Singh of India, Sadhu, Evangelist, Teacher, 1929  For the first two or three years after my conversion, I used to ask for specific things. Now I ask for God. Supposing there is a tree full of fruits -- you will have to go and buy or beg the fruits from the owner of the tree. Every day you would have to go for one or two fruits. But if you can make the tree your own property, then all the fruits will be your own. In the same way, if God is your own, then all things in Heaven and on earth will be your own, because He is your Father and is everything to you; otherwise you will have to go and ask like a beggar for certain things. When they are used up, you will have to ask again. So ask not for gifts but for the Giver of Gifts: not for life but for the Giver of Life -- then life and the things needed for life will be added unto you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have always enjoyed learning, and we accomplish a lot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36432]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have always enjoyed learning, and we accomplish a lot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The universe is laughing behind your back. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28062]]></link><description><![CDATA[The universe is laughing behind your back.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every year, back comes Spring, with nasty little birds yapping their fool heads off and the ground all mucked up ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63026]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every year, back comes Spring, with nasty little birds yapping their fool heads off and the ground all mucked up with plants.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He resolved, having done it once, never to move his eyeballs again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40153]]></link><description><![CDATA[He resolved, having done it once, never to move his eyeballs again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have made the Reich by propaganda ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48417]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have made the Reich by propaganda]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom has never made a bigot, but learning has. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4208]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom has never made a bigot, but learning has.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell isn't merely paved with good intentions, it is walled and roofed with them ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19116]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hell isn't merely paved with good intentions, it is walled and roofed with them]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63511]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A proper man, as one shall see in a summer's day. -A Midsummer Night's Dream.
