But if these holy places, things, and days cease to remind us, if they obliterate our awareness that all ground is holy and every bush (could we but perceive it) a Burning Bush, then the hallows begin to do harm. Hence both the necessity, and the perennial danger, of "religion".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Facts are stupid until brought into connection with some general law. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41030]]></link><description><![CDATA[Facts are stupid until brought into connection with some general law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lovers have a right to betray you... friends don't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lovers have a right to betray you... friends don't.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Had Cain been Scot, God would have changed his doom Nor forced him wander, but confine him home. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Had Cain been Scot, God would have changed his doom Nor forced him wander, but confine him home.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The march of intellect. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22886]]></link><description><![CDATA[The march of intellect.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22886</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be a leader of men one must turn one's back on men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47301]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be a leader of men one must turn one's back on men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're ecstatic that we got things off the ground.
