The load, or weight, or burden, of my neighbour's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship --or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. All day long we are, in some degree, helping each other to one or other of these destinations. It is in the light of these overwhelming possibilities, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humor has been the balm of my life, but it's been reserved for those close to me, not part of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65261]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humor has been the balm of my life, but it's been reserved for those close to me, not part of the public Lana.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would have you call to mind the strength of the ancient giants, that undertook to lay the high mountain ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43314]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would have you call to mind the strength of the ancient giants, that undertook to lay the high mountain Pelion on the top of Ossa, and set among those the shady Olympus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The objection of the scandalmonger is not that she tells of racy doings, but that she pretends to be indignant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54757]]></link><description><![CDATA[The objection of the scandalmonger is not that she tells of racy doings, but that she pretends to be indignant about them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is another's fault if he be ungrateful, but it is mine if I do not give.
