In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them.

The Scriptures indeed were at hand for the study of those who could avail themselves of them, but St. Iranaeus does not hesitate to speak of whole races who had been converted to Christianity, without being able to read them. To be unable to read or write was in those times no evidence of want of learning; the hermits of the deserts were, in one sense of the word, illiterate, yet the great St. Anthony, though he knew not letters, was a match in disputation for the learned philosophers who came to try him.  ... John Henry Newman, "What is a University?" August 12, 2000   Any single verse of the Bible, taken in isolation, may actually be dangerous to your spiritual health. Every part of it must be read in relation to the whole message.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery. -Dr Joyce Brothers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery. -Dr Joyce Brothers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Envy shoots at others and wounds itself ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14003]]></link><description><![CDATA[Envy shoots at others and wounds itself]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The kids have their school team, and then they have their summer team.

Hence a man’s reaction to monarchy is a kind of test. Monarchy can easily be ‘debunked;' but watch the faces, mark the accents of the debunkers. These are the men whose tap-root in Eden has been cut: whom no rumour of the polyphony, the dance, can reach - men to whom pebbles laid in a row are more beautiful than an arch. Yet even if they desire equality, they cannot reach it. Where men are forbidden to honour a king they honour millionaires, athletes or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The path to success is to take massive, determined action. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/478]]></link><description><![CDATA[The path to success is to take massive, determined action.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By a series of violent shocks, the nations in succession have struggled to shake off the Past, to reverse the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38397]]></link><description><![CDATA[By a series of violent shocks, the nations in succession have struggled to shake off the Past, to reverse the action of Time and the verdict of success, and to rescue the world from the reign of the dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have met the enemy and he is us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13866]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have met the enemy and he is us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The silent influence of books, is a mighty power in the world; and there is a joy in reading them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56315]]></link><description><![CDATA[The silent influence of books, is a mighty power in the world; and there is a joy in reading them known only to those who read them with desire and enthusiasm.

He must therefore plunge himself into the life of a godless world, without attempting to gloss over its ungodliness with a veneer of religion or trying to transfigure it. He must live a 'worldly' life and so participate in the suffering of God. He may live a worldly life as one emancipated from all false religions and obligations. To be a Christian does not mean to be religious in a particular way, to cultivate some particular form of asceticism (as a sinner, a penitent, or a saint), but to be a man. It is not some religious act which makes a Christian what he is, but participation in the suffering of God in the life of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Savages we call them because their manners differ from ours. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26360]]></link><description><![CDATA[Savages we call them because their manners differ from ours.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26500]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37236]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37236</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No bubble is so iridescent or floats longer than that blown by the successful teacher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58711]]></link><description><![CDATA[No bubble is so iridescent or floats longer than that blown by the successful teacher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obviously, it does give us an opportunity to start off (conference play) with a win and not a loss, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30596]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obviously, it does give us an opportunity to start off (conference play) with a win and not a loss,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They were our pets.
