When we select for serious consideration those doctrines which "transcend" the thought of his own age and are "for all time", we are assuming that the thought of our age is correct: for of course by thoughts which transcend the great man's age we really mean thoughts that agree with ours. Thus I value Shakespeare's picture of the transformation in old Lear more than I value his views about the divine right of kings, because I agree with Shakespeare that a man can be purified by suffering like Lear, but do not believe that kings (or any other rulers) have divine right in the sense required. When the great man's views do not seem to us erroneous we do not value them the less for having been shared with his contemporaries. Shakespeare's disdain for treachery and Christ's blessing on the poor were not alien to the outlook of their respective periods; but no one wishes to discredit them on that account.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Miseries of which I was an eye witness and in which I took a chief part. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51815]]></link><description><![CDATA[Miseries of which I was an eye witness and in which I took a chief part.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody wants to be somebody; nobody wants to grow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57038]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody wants to be somebody; nobody wants to grow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Although gold dust is precious, when it gets in your eyes it obstructs your vision. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22564]]></link><description><![CDATA[Although gold dust is precious, when it gets in your eyes it obstructs your vision.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Have you ever noticed?

The Colloquies of Erasmus  February 13, 1999  Faith is the source of energy in the struggle of life, but life still remains a battle which is continually renewed upon ever-new fronts. For every threatening abyss that is closed, another yawning gulf appears. The truth is -- and this is the conclusion of the whole matter -- the Kingdom of God is within us. But we must let our light shine before men in confident and untiring labor that they may see our good works and praise our Father in Heaven. The final ends of all humanity are hidden within His hands.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sports betting is going to continue to steadily grow.
