The only way to dispel the darkness of the present age and liberate it from the prison within which it has become bound is to restore the proper relationship of nature to supernature and of time to eternity as an essential feature of external reality. Until this can be accomplished, there is really very little that the Church or Christianity in general has to offer to this age.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Recollection is the only paradise from which we cannot be turned out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Recollection is the only paradise from which we cannot be turned out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A bad neighbor is a misfortune, as much as a good one is a great blessing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44372]]></link><description><![CDATA[A bad neighbor is a misfortune, as much as a good one is a great blessing]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever God erects a house of prayer The devil always builds a chapel there;  And 'twill be found, upon ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8673]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever God erects a house of prayer The devil always builds a chapel there;  And 'twill be found, upon examination,   The latter has the largest congregation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the outreach of self toward completion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63502]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the outreach of self toward completion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joys Are bubble-like--what makes them bursts them too.   - Philip James Bailey, Festus ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23414]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joys Are bubble-like--what makes them bursts them too.   - Philip James Bailey, Festus]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wouldn't.
