Let us live while we live; let us be alive and doing; let us act on what we have, since we have not what we wish. Let us believe what we do not see and know. Let us forestall knowledge by faith. Let us maintain before we have demonstrated. This seeming paradox is the secret of happiness. Why should we be unwilling to go by faith? We do all things in this world by faith in the word of others. By faith only do we know our position in the world, our circumstances, our rights and privileges, our fortunes, our parents, our brothers and sisters, our age, our mortality. Why should Religion be an exception? Why should we be unwilling to use for heavenly objects what we daily use for earthly?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who is just and resolute will not be moved from his settled purpose, either by the misdirected rage ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10288]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man who is just and resolute will not be moved from his settled purpose, either by the misdirected rage of his fellow citizens, or by the threats of an imperious tryant. [Lat., Justum et tenacem propositi virum  Non civium ardor prava jubentium,   Non vultus instantis tyranni,    Mente quatit solida.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thoroughly disapprove of duels.
