Surely that is not wholly true. It certainly must help us if we recognize that it is the presence of the Holy Spirit which creates a unity which we can never create.If men believe in the existence of this unity, they may begin to desire it, and desiring it to seek for it, and seeking it to find it. If, when they find it, they refuse to deny it, in due time, by ways now unsearchable, they will surely return to external communion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that would govern others, first should be the master of himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2263]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that would govern others, first should be the master of himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty, n: the power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61949]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty, n: the power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So Noah, when he anchor'd safe on The mountain's top, his lofty haven,  And all the passengers he bore ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61673]]></link><description><![CDATA[So Noah, when he anchor'd safe on The mountain's top, his lofty haven,  And all the passengers he bore   Were on the new world set ashore,    He made it next his chief design     To plant and propagate a vine,      Which since has overwhelm'd and drown'd       Far greater number, on dry ground,        Of wretched mankind, one by one,         Than all the flood before had done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You make decisions, and it doesn't always turn out right.

If I were to give it to you, you would think yourself of some importance, you would fancy that you had gained something very great. Because you asked for it, you have it. But take care to make good use of it. Before you had it, you were humble; now that you have begun to be rich you despise the poor. What kind of a good is that which only makes you worse? For worse you are, since you were bad already. And that it would make you worse you knew not; hence you asked it of Me. I gave it to you, and I proved you; you have found -- and you have found out! Ask of Me better things than these, greater things than these. Ask of Me spiritual things.

Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who multiplies riches multiplies cares. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61462]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who multiplies riches multiplies cares.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If all our happiness is bound up entirely in our personal circumstances it is difficult not to demand of life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8747]]></link><description><![CDATA[If all our happiness is bound up entirely in our personal circumstances it is difficult not to demand of life more than it has to give.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Common sense is the measure of the possible; it is composed of experience and prevision; it is calculation applied to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36440]]></link><description><![CDATA[Common sense is the measure of the possible; it is composed of experience and prevision; it is calculation applied to life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36440</guid></item></channel></rss>
