It’s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, Do you remember that night we...? But you don’t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis in grain, sir; 'twill endure wind and weather. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51524]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis in grain, sir; 'twill endure wind and weather.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When autumn scatters his departing gleams, Warn'd of approaching winter, gather'd, play  The swallow-people; and toss'd wide around,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58440]]></link><description><![CDATA[When autumn scatters his departing gleams, Warn'd of approaching winter, gather'd, play  The swallow-people; and toss'd wide around,   O'er the calm sky, in convolution swift,    The feather'd eddy floats; rejoicing once,     Ere to their wintry slumbers they retire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like watermen who look astern while they row the boat ahead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4405]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like watermen who look astern while they row the boat ahead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The be-all and end-all of life should not be to get rich, but to enrich the world. -B.

And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Does being a feminist mean that I believe that I'm as good as any man?

Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We train by a parkway, which runs beside a river.
