The only way clergy can ever change the way in which the word they use is perceived is to refuse to play the role of antiquarian and medicine man in which the society casts them; but this is difficult, because it is what they are paid for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humiliating to human pride as it may be, we must recognize that the advance and even the preservation of civilization ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humiliating to human pride as it may be, we must recognize that the advance and even the preservation of civilization are dependent upon a maximum of opportunity for accidents to happen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But strong of limb And swift of foot misfortune is, and, far  Outstripping all, comes to every land,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42805]]></link><description><![CDATA[But strong of limb And swift of foot misfortune is, and, far  Outstripping all, comes to every land,   And there wreaks evil on mankind, which prayers    Do afterwards redress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't row a boat in two directions at the same time ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4414]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can't row a boat in two directions at the same time]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I mumble a lot off-stage, I'm a mumbler.
