It may be quite childish, a sort of undignified pastime -- I'm referring to the kind of suffering a man inflicts on a woman or a woman on a man. It's extremely painful. I agree that it's hardly bearable. But I very much fear that this sort of pain deserves no consideration at all. It's no more worthy of respect than old age or illness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has always been a mixed bag, being the spouse of a political figure.

The discoveries of modern physical and biological science, of astronomy, and of psychology, have profoundly influenced his conception of the "size" of God. If there be a Mind behind the immense complexities of the phenomena that man can observe, then it is that of a Being tremendous in His power and wisdom: it is emphatically not that of a little god. It is perfectly conceivable that such a Being has a moral purpose which is being worked out on the stage of this small planet. It is even possible to believe that such a God deliberately reduced Himself to the stature of humanity in order to visit the earth in Person, as all Christians affirm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54537]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the sheriff to come in and enforce the law, enforce speeds, it has to be legally posted, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37732]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the sheriff to come in and enforce the law, enforce speeds, it has to be legally posted, and the rules have to be met.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children.

The grosser manifestations of these sins -- egotism, exhibitionism, self-promotion -- are strangely tolerated in Christian leaders, even in circles of impeccable orthodoxy. They are so much in evidence as actually, for many people, to become identified with the gospel. I trust it is not a cynical observation to say that they appear these days to be a requisite for popularity in some sections of the Church visible. Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is one, but he has innumerable forms.
