We shrink from the consequences of truth. We look round and cling dependently. We ask what men will think; what others will say; whether they will not stare in astonishment. Perhaps they will; but he who is calculating that, will accomplish nothing in this life. The Father -- the Father which is with us and in us -- what does He think? God's work cannot be done without a spirit of independence. A man is got some way in the Christian life when he has learned to say, humbly yet majestically, "I dare to be alone.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole art of politics consists in directing rationally the irrationalities of men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47147]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole art of politics consists in directing rationally the irrationalities of men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A spark can start a fire that burns the entire prairie. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62812]]></link><description><![CDATA[A spark can start a fire that burns the entire prairie.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us.

But when it is taken for a veritable possessing of God, or unity with God, then it is sin, for it is in reality nothing else than a state of thorough passivity and apathy untouched by the power from on high -- a purely negative state from which (if one in arrogance calls it divine) nothing follows but blindness, failure of understanding, and a disinclination to be governed by the rules of ordinary righteousness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35018]]></link><description><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really warranted,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
