They say that it makes us so free that it cannot be the truth. To them it is like believing in fairyland to believe in such freedom as we enjoy. It is like believing in men with wings to entertain the fancy of men with wills. It is like accepting a fable about a squirrel in conversation with a mountain to believe in a man who is free to ask or a God who is free to answer. This is a manly and a rational negation, for which I for one shall always show respect. But I decline to show any respect for those who first of all clip the bird and cage the squirrel, rivet the chains and refuse the freedom, close all the doors of the cosmic prison on us with a clang of eternal iron, tell us that our emancipation is a dream and our dungeon a necessity; and then calmly turn round and tell us they have a freer thought and a more liberal theology.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7592</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do not hear the term "compassionate" applied to business executives or entrepreneurs, certainly not when they are engaged in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15793]]></link><description><![CDATA[We do not hear the term "compassionate" applied to business executives or entrepreneurs, certainly not when they are engaged in their normal work. Yet in terms of results in the measurable form of jobs created, lives enriched, communities built, living standards raised, and poverty healed, a handful of capitalists has done infinitely more for mankind than all the self-serving politicians, academics, social workers, and religionists who march under the banner of "compassion".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Philanthropy is almost the only virtue which is sufficiently appreciated by mankind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5729]]></link><description><![CDATA[Philanthropy is almost the only virtue which is sufficiently appreciated by mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are no clear reasons and I am not going to make one up to explain the recent strengthening of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40854]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are no clear reasons and I am not going to make one up to explain the recent strengthening of Epsilon.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thy clothes are all the soul thou hast. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2714]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thy clothes are all the soul thou hast.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I gave my life for freedom--This I know; For those who bade me fight had told me so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16681]]></link><description><![CDATA[I gave my life for freedom--This I know; For those who bade me fight had told me so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A graceful and pleasing figure is a perpetual letter of recommendation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18108]]></link><description><![CDATA[A graceful and pleasing figure is a perpetual letter of recommendation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64503]]></link><description><![CDATA[When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here are a few of the unpleasant'st words That ever blotted paper! -The Merchant of Venice.

TheChrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,who then saw for the first time that it was alive. Poor, pitiableanimal! cried the Ant disdainfully. What a sad fate is yours!While I can run hither and thither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish,ascend the tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, withpower only to move a joint or two of your scaly tail. The Chrysalisheard all this, but did not try to make any reply. A few days after,when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained.Wondering what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenlyshaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful Butterfly.Behold in me, said the Butterfly, your much-pitied friend! Boastnow of your powers to run and climb as long as you can get me tolisten. So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne alongand aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of theAnt forever.Appearances are deceptive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the disease of one the whole flock perishes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50441]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the disease of one the whole flock perishes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By education most have been misled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13402]]></link><description><![CDATA[By education most have been misled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His prostate cancer is no issue, it is completely controlled, ...
