This obsession with roots will be felt especially keenly by foundlings, who often have no way of exploring their family histories.] I notice that genealogical sites now have warnings on them saying people should be ready for little surprises, ... They're not all going to find themselves descended from King Henry VIII or Richard Cur de Lion or Wellington. This is rather strange because it was pretty taken for granted a few generations ago that families had all kinds of little moments where things had gone not according to the book. It was just one of those things. You tried to accommodate it. There was no social welfare. You just had to sort it out within villages, the families, the parish. Children went to the workhouse, but people knew about it. Nowadays, there's a kind of surprise that these cases were so commonplace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It could have been broken, but luckily it turned out to only be a sprain.

The Love Feast, which should have been the sign and symbol of perfect unity, has become a thing of divisions and class distinctions. And here there is something which only the newer translations reveal. In the older translations, it is said that to eat and drink at the sacrament without discerning the Lord's body is the way to judgment and not to salvation. But in the best Greek text, the word Lord's is not included. The sin is not to discern the body; that is to say, not to discern that the church is a body, not to be aware of the oneness of the church, not to be aware of the togetherness in which all its members should be joined.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dog gnawes the bone because he cannot swallow it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49834]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dog gnawes the bone because he cannot swallow it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the crown of his head to the sole of his foot, he is all mirth. -Much Ado about Nothing. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55432]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the crown of his head to the sole of his foot, he is all mirth. -Much Ado about Nothing.
