There is something more true in his denunciation of idolatry as sin than in our denial that it is possible for a man to worship an idol, or in our suggestion that all idolatry is only a road to spiritual worship of the one true God... One day, I think, we shall return to these stern doctrines, realizing in them a truth more profound than we now know, and then we shall preach them with conviction, and, being convinced ourselves, we shall convince others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Infinite riches in a little room. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61409]]></link><description><![CDATA[Infinite riches in a little room.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The robin population is variable from one winter to the next. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38722]]></link><description><![CDATA[The robin population is variable from one winter to the next.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Women are not forgiven for aging.
