Go not so far away, leaving us to evil. Darkness is loose upon the world, the Devil Walks in the land, and there is nothing worth. Death like a dog runs howling from his lair; His bite has made men mad, they follow after All howling too, and their demoniac laughter Drowns like a sea our solitary prayer. Return, 0 Lord, return. Come with the day, Come with the light, that men may see once more Across this earth's uncomfortable floor The kindly paths, the old and loving way. Let us not die of evil in the night. Let there be God again. Let there be light.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We'd like everybody to come to celebrate her life.

It would assuredly make a difference if Christians, in their approach one to another, realized that, in spite of appearances, they were in fact one. If, in their seeking after external reunion, they realized that they were seeking not to create a unity which does not yet exist, but to find an expression for a unity which does exist, which is indeed the one elemental reality, they would approach one another in a better frame of mind. The common recognition of the principle would in itself be a unifying force of great value, and would dispose those who shared it to approach questions of difference in a spirit of unity which would immensely assist their deliberations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thanks to words, we have been able to rise above the brutes, and thanks to words, we have sunk to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thanks to words, we have been able to rise above the brutes, and thanks to words, we have sunk to the level of the demons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The majority see the obstacles; the few see the objectives; history records the successes of the latter, while oblivion is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26208]]></link><description><![CDATA[The majority see the obstacles; the few see the objectives; history records the successes of the latter, while oblivion is the reward of the former.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have not failed.
