To justify Christianity because it provides a foundation of morality, instead of showing the necessity of Christian morality from the truth of Christianity, is a very dangerous inversion; and we may reflect that a good deal of the attention of totalitarian states has been devoted with a steadfastness of purpose not always found in democracies, to providing their national life with a foundation of morality -- the wrong kind, perhaps, but a good deal more of it. It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work.

It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we'd be truly dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11948</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63052]]></link><description><![CDATA[The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take the whole range of imaginative literature, and we are all wholesale borrowers.

In the bedroom you grew up in. It's the only place on this entire planet that is yours. The only place on the planet that understands you. It understands the way your nerves flare everytime you think about talking to anyone, scared into shyness at the thought of opening your mouth but the way you are the best hypocrite around when you're in front of a microphone. It knows what turns that switch on and off and on again. It understands the way when you don't have a smile on your face everyone only spits: "what's wrong"s and "you look tired"s. So the way you keep it on your face just wide enough to avoid questions. It understands how neurotic you have become, the way you treat your flaws like old friends. The way you look in the mirror and think of yourself as "Mr. Misery"...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were excited to win.
