The more differentiated and specialized the parts, the more elaborate co-ordination is needed to create a well-balanced whole. The ultimate criterion of the value of a functional whole is the degree of its internal harmony or integratedness, whether the "functional whole" is a biological species or a civilization or an individual. A whole is defined by the pattern of relations between its parts, not by the sum of its parts; and a civilization is not defined by the sum of its science, technology, art and social organization, but by the total pattern which they form, and the degree of harmonious integration in that pattern.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56817</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every hero becomes a bore at last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every hero becomes a bore at last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The state of severance of union with sorrow is known by the name of yoga. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62519]]></link><description><![CDATA[The state of severance of union with sorrow is known by the name of yoga.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never forget what you need to remember. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14526]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never forget what you need to remember.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Over increasingly large areas of the United States, spring now comes unheralded by the return of the birds, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4226]]></link><description><![CDATA[Over increasingly large areas of the United States, spring now comes unheralded by the return of the birds, and the early mornings are strangely silent where once they were filled with the beauty of bird song.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This guest of summer, The temple-haunting martlet, does approve  By his loved mansionry that the heaven's breath   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26471]]></link><description><![CDATA[This guest of summer, The temple-haunting martlet, does approve  By his loved mansionry that the heaven's breath   Smells wooingly here.

No, here was a sequence of great character and emancipated spirit, all attached to and explained by such a personality as the world never saw; and the central doctrine of the risen Christ squared with the rationality and the goodness of God... The wise said that God and the godlike could have no contact with suffering, but Jesus was no phantom feigning to be crucified; he truly suffered on the cross, he truly rose. Suffering is a language all can understand, and none can quite exhaust; and the suffering Christ, victorious over pain and death, meant for all who grasped his significance a new faith in God, a new freedom of mind in God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10163]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Donne, Priest, Poet, 1631 Death, be not proud, though some have called thee  Mighty and dreadful, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8096]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John Donne, Priest, Poet, 1631 Death, be not proud, though some have called thee  Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;  For those, whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow  Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me. From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,  Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow,  And soonest our best men with thee do go,  Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery. Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,  And poppy, or charms, can make us sleep as well,  And better than thy stroke. Why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally,  And Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Books are like a mirror.
