There is a Pagan, savage heart in me somewhere. For unfortunately the folly and idiot-cunning of Paganism seem to have far more power of surviving than its innocent or even beautiful elements. It is easy, once you have power, to silence the pipes, still the dances, disfigure the statues, and forget the stories; but not easy to kill the savage, the greedy, frightened creature now cringing, now blustering in one's soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fairy stitching gleams On the sides and in the seams,  And it shows   That Pixies were ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56216]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fairy stitching gleams On the sides and in the seams,  And it shows   That Pixies were the wags    Who tipped these funny tags     And these toes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's going to be the most important hockey game of my life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28408]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's going to be the most important hockey game of my life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The object of opening the mind as of opening the mouth is to close it again on something solid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53591]]></link><description><![CDATA[The object of opening the mind as of opening the mouth is to close it again on something solid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will receive not what we idly wish for but what we justly earn.

St. Basil the Great  January 3, 1998  Commemoration of Gladys Aylward, Missionary in China, 1970  For us in the Pacific, in Asia, in India, and in Africa, Christian unity is not an optional extra. It is an urgent necessity, for our divisions are a real stumbling-block to the proclamation of the Gospel... Mission is at the heart of the divine reality. It is the will of God and the Kingdom of God which are to be made known. Wherever we are, our purpose is not to propagate the Church as an end in itself, but to proclaim Christ as Lord of all life and as Saviour of all men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He stepped in hole as a baby.
