When we select for serious consideration those doctrines which "transcend" the thought of his own age and are "for all time", we are assuming that the thought of our age is correct: for of course by thoughts which transcend the great man's age we really mean thoughts that agree with ours. Thus I value Shakespeare's picture of the transformation in old Lear more than I value his views about the divine right of kings, because I agree with Shakespeare that a man can be purified by suffering like Lear, but do not believe that kings (or any other rulers) have divine right in the sense required. When the great man's views do not seem to us erroneous we do not value them the less for having been shared with his contemporaries. Shakespeare's disdain for treachery and Christ's blessing on the poor were not alien to the outlook of their respective periods; but no one wishes to discredit them on that account.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who has no inner life is the slave of his surroundings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24946]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man who has no inner life is the slave of his surroundings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can the knowledge deriving from reason even begin to compare with knowledge perceptible by sense? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41051]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can the knowledge deriving from reason even begin to compare with knowledge perceptible by sense?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The active part of man consists of powerful instincts, some of which are gentle and continuous; others violent and short; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22840]]></link><description><![CDATA[The active part of man consists of powerful instincts, some of which are gentle and continuous; others violent and short; some baser, some nobler, and all necessary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Change of weather is the discourse of fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Change of weather is the discourse of fools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The act of writing requires a constant plunging back into the shadow of the past where time hovers ghostlike. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62431]]></link><description><![CDATA[The act of writing requires a constant plunging back into the shadow of the past where time hovers ghostlike.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a woman except what she builds in a man's heart ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26239]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing enduring in life for a woman except what she builds in a man's heart]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915  No one who is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6529]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915  No one who is fit to live need fear to die. Poor, timorous, faithless souls that we are! How we shall smile at our vain alarms, when the worst has happened! To us here, death is the most terrible word we know. But when we have tasted its reality, it will mean to us birth, deliverance, a new creation of ourselves. It will be what health is to the sick man. It will be what home is to the exile. It will be what the loved one given back is to the bereaved. As we draw near to it, a great solemn gladness should fill our hearts. It is God's great morning lighting up the sky.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marcus Banks had three years here, to play, and he had three coaches (Jim O'Brien, John Carroll, Doc Rivers) that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32637]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marcus Banks had three years here, to play, and he had three coaches (Jim O'Brien, John Carroll, Doc Rivers) that weren't real excited about him.
