Our model is the Jesus, not only of Calvary, but of the workshop, the roads, the crowds, the clamorous demands and surly oppositions, the lack of all peace and privacy, the interruptions. For this, so strangely unlike anything we can attribute to the divine life in itself, is apparently not only like, but is, the divine life operating under human conditions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius--and a lot of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17311]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius--and a lot of courage--to move in the opposite direction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An animal will always look for a person's intentions by looking them right in the eyes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14841]]></link><description><![CDATA[An animal will always look for a person's intentions by looking them right in the eyes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've seen everyone on our staff shed some tears.

When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it. He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63755]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder one another in cold blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties?
