Let us say that man is the kind of creature who naturally sees the world from a very limited perspective, that he tends to be self-centered and to prefer the interests that are closest to himself and to his own social group. Let us say that man is naturally unwilling to accept his limited or finite status, that he is always seeking to extend his control over others, that he seeks to maintain his own security by means of power over all who may threaten it, that he likes to be in a position to compare himself with others to their disadvantage, that he seeks to be self-sufficient and to deny in effect his dependence upon God and to set up his own group or system or ideal in the place of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I concede! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22243]]></link><description><![CDATA[I concede!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9648]]></link><description><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the strong conception   That I do groan withal.
