In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world. It is also the language of the Bible, of the parables of Christ, which the rationalist of today finds it so difficult to understand, of the Word of God which demands of us not a discussion but a personal decision.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easier for a camel to pass through they eye of the needle than for a rich man to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53757]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easier for a camel to pass through they eye of the needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65244]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When photography was invented it was thought to be an equivalent to truth, it was truth with a capital "T". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46553]]></link><description><![CDATA[When photography was invented it was thought to be an equivalent to truth, it was truth with a capital "T".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nobody as enslaved as the fanatic, the person in whom one impulse, one value, has assumed ascendancy over ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15256]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nobody as enslaved as the fanatic, the person in whom one impulse, one value, has assumed ascendancy over all others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is not any different medicine.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the qualities of liberty is that, as long as it is being striven after, it goes on expanding. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52646]]></link><description><![CDATA[One of the qualities of liberty is that, as long as it is being striven after, it goes on expanding.

They have Christ, they have God, and they are satisfied. There can be no monotony in the contemplation and worship of the Infinite. Their great possession is unchangeable, but also inexhaustible; no change is possible where all is love and truth. The centre of the heavenly life is fixed and immovable, but the circumference may ever be advancing towards the centre, the saints may ever be drawing nearer and nearer to the goal which they can never reach. There may be progress in knowledge, progress in enjoyment, progress in service -- a progress which at every point will open up new wonders, new opportunities, new outlooks into a greater future, and as that future unfolds itself, new and unexpected scopes for the energies of redeemed men, new ways of fellowship with God in Christ, new companionships with the good and great of past generations, and with angelic beings who have watched and guarded us in life, and rejoiced over our repentance, and are ready to welcome us into the eternal mansions, and will share our worship and our work, our service and our joy, in the ages to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2174]]></link><description><![CDATA[The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2174</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Progress isn't made by early risers.

It is often the one blot on an otherwise noble character. You know men who are all but perfect, and women who would be entirely perfect, but for an easily ruffled, quick-tempered, or "touchy" disposition. This compatibility of ill temper with high moral character is one of the strangest and saddest problems of ethics... No form of vice -- not worldliness, not greed of gold, not drunkenness itself -- does more to unChristianize society than evil temper. For embittering life, for breaking up communities, for destroying the most sacred relationships, for devastating homes, for withering up men and women, for taking the bloom off of childhood -- in short, for sheer, gratuitous misery-producing power -- this influence stands alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A knock-down argument; 'tis but a word and a blow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3046]]></link><description><![CDATA[A knock-down argument; 'tis but a word and a blow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the irrational season Where love blooms bright and wild.
