There is no breaking through this law of our being. Every attempt to do so proves itself in experience to be futile. Hence we are in a more helpless state of bondage than that which materialistic determinism holds; for the tyrant is established within our own consciousness. One way, and one way only, out of this bondage remains. If we can discover how to make our own immediate desire, and the act of will springing out of it, accord with the supreme law of our being, then to "do as we like" will no longer be to run our heads against the stone wall of necessity which shuts us out from the heaven of satisfaction. For we shall only "like" doing what we "ought". This introduces a new sense of the word "freedom". It does not now mean freedom from restrains to follow our desires, but freedom from the tyranny of futile desires to follow what is really good. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7480</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All art requires courage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3149]]></link><description><![CDATA[All art requires courage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou art a female, Katydid! I know it by the trill  That quivers through thy piercing notes   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou art a female, Katydid! I know it by the trill  That quivers through thy piercing notes   So petulant and shrill.    I think there is a knot of you     Beneath the hollow tree,      A knot of spinster Katydids,--       Do Katydids drink tea?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Don Quixote of one generation may live to hear himself called the savior of society by the next. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56775]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Don Quixote of one generation may live to hear himself called the savior of society by the next.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56775</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Cross  If I am afraid to speak the truth lest I lose affection, or lest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7659]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Cross  If I am afraid to speak the truth lest I lose affection, or lest the one concerned should say, "You do not understand", or because I fear to lose my reputation for kindness; if I put my own good name before the other's highest good, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
