It is interesting to note that in the first centuries of the Christian era many demoniacal phenomena appeared in countries in the course of being converted from idolatry to Christianity. The same is true of pagan civilisation today. In my research into the fourth century, I was surprised to find a great recrudescence of magical practices at the very moment when Roman civilization under Constantine was about to be snatched away bodily from paganism and enter... into the kingdom of the Son; at that time, all the rites of sorcery took on an incredible virulence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether man is disposed to yield to nature or to oppose her, he cannot do without a correct understanding of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43891]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether man is disposed to yield to nature or to oppose her, he cannot do without a correct understanding of her language.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things do not change; we change. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things do not change; we change.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death and taxes and childbirth!

Come as the wind: sweep clean away  What dead within us lies, And search and freshen all our souls  With living energies.  Come as the fire: and purge our hearts  Like sacrificial flame; Let our whole soul as offering be  To our redeemer's name.
