It has failed to understand that the world is not for the beholding. It is for hearing. It is not legible, but audible. Our science has always desired to monitor, measure, abstract, and castrate meaning, forgetting that life is full of noise and that death alone is silent: work noise, noise of man, and noise of beast. Noise bought, sold, or prohibited. Nothing essential happens in the absence of noise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A truly great man never puts away the simplicity of a child. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56338]]></link><description><![CDATA[A truly great man never puts away the simplicity of a child.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To feed were best at home; From thence, the sauce is meat to ceremony:  Meeting were bare without it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5447]]></link><description><![CDATA[To feed were best at home; From thence, the sauce is meat to ceremony:  Meeting were bare without it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You purchase pain with all that joy can give, And die of nothing but a rage to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45367]]></link><description><![CDATA[You purchase pain with all that joy can give, And die of nothing but a rage to live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45367</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was 10 times better, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34104]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was 10 times better,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All women are born evil.

If life be long I will be glad,  That I may long obey; If short--yet why should I be sad  To soar to endless day? Christ leads me through no darker rooms  Than He went through before; He that unto God's kingdom comes,  Must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet  Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet,  What will Thy glory be! Then shall I end my sad complaints,  And weary, sinful days; And join with the triumphant saints,  To sing Jehovah's praise. My knowledge of that life is small,  The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,  And I shall be with him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful.
