My attitude is if somebody blunders into the level of popularity, at least remember the human factor. These guys are still human beings and hopefully still have hearts and if you keep in touch with them rather than vilify them you may be able to encourage them to go in the right direction. What I'm hoping will eventually happen is that they will grasp the amount of power and financial clout that is now at their fingertips and use those as tools to help real people with real things the way punk politics was always designed to do before, but nobody had any money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's the bottom line -- that no one gets hurt, no one gets injured, or hurts someone else while they're ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29126]]></link><description><![CDATA[That's the bottom line -- that no one gets hurt, no one gets injured, or hurts someone else while they're on the road.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford.

We used to read the lives of the Saints together. And when I read of the martyrdoms which they suffered for the love of God, I used to think that they had bought their entry into God's presence very cheaply. Then I fervently longed to die like them, not out of any conscious love for Him, but in order to attain, as quickly as they had, those joys which, as I read, are laid up in Heaven. I used to discuss with my brother ways and means of becoming martyrs, and we agreed to go together to the land of the Moors, begging our way for the love of God, so that we might be beheaded there. I believe that our Lord had given us courage enough even at that tender age, if only we could have seen a way. But our parents seemed to us a very great hindrance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11513]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why do you laugh?

The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2115]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd hate to be a teetotaller.
