Many grown-ups will obstinately persist, if only now and then, in composing small strings of sentences in their heads and achieving at least momentary logic. This probably cannot be prevented, but we have learned how to minimize the consequences by arranging that such grown-ups will be unable to pursue that logic very far. If they were at home in the technology of writing, there's no telling how much social disorder they would cause by thinking things out at length.Our schools have chosen to cut this danger off as close to the root as possible, thus taking measures to preclude not only the birth of thought but its conception. They give the pill to even the youngest children, but just to be on the safe side, they give it to everybody else, too, especially all would-be schoolteachers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To seek these things is lost labour; Geese in an oyle pot, fat Hogs among Jews, and Wine in a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50013]]></link><description><![CDATA[To seek these things is lost labour; Geese in an oyle pot, fat Hogs among Jews, and Wine in a fishing net.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The perfect going-away gift for a college student-athlete.

It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The solitary Bee Whose buzzing was the only sound of life,  Flew there on restless wing,   Seeking ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3912]]></link><description><![CDATA[The solitary Bee Whose buzzing was the only sound of life,  Flew there on restless wing,   Seeking in vain one blossom where to fix.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Such is the aspect of this shore; 'Tis Greece, but living Greece no more!  So coldly sweet, so deadly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18284]]></link><description><![CDATA[Such is the aspect of this shore; 'Tis Greece, but living Greece no more!  So coldly sweet, so deadly fair,   We start, for soul is wanting there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They condemn that which they cannot comprehend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48883]]></link><description><![CDATA[They condemn that which they cannot comprehend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48883</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That chastity of honour which felt a stain like a wound. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5790]]></link><description><![CDATA[That chastity of honour which felt a stain like a wound.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What else is the meaning of our present chaos, of humanity in sorrow, but this: that contemporary man is tried ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6694]]></link><description><![CDATA[What else is the meaning of our present chaos, of humanity in sorrow, but this: that contemporary man is tried before the bar of the Eternal, and found wanting? Nor can any nation survive, or re-establish lasting peace, if it rests on those foundations on which contemporary nations have been built, our own included. What are those crumbling foundations? Conceit, self-will, denial of discipline, self-expressionism, secularism, this worldliness, greed, entrenched privilege, defiance of God's desire. On base absurdities have we built. Have we now moral courage to face our common sin, or are we content to trust in one form of armed wickedness to overcome the evils of another form of the same mad folly? Merely by smashing our enemies we shall not remake the world. By Beelzebub no devils are cast out...
