And this often in all sincerity. But, at other times, we are not really much disturbed about it; or, at least, not nearly so much as our heaped-up language would imply. What we imagine that we are achieving through this unreality I do not know. We shall not fool the All-wise; nor induce Him to believe that we are anything other, or better, than we actually are! Were it not saner to tell Him the truth, exactly as it is -- not that we are overwhelmed with sorrow for our sinfulness, if it is not so; but rather this, that, to all our other sinfulness, we have added this last and crowning sinfulness, that we are not much worried about it, or, at least, not nearly as much as we ought to be. Be pleased, in pity, to grant us such measure of sorrow for our failures as will lead us to a true repentance; and, through that, to a new way of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Laws are like cobwebs, which may catch small flies but which let wasps and hornets break through. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24319]]></link><description><![CDATA[Laws are like cobwebs, which may catch small flies but which let wasps and hornets break through.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like the violet, which alone Prospers in some happy shade,  My Castara lives unknown   To no looser ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42907]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like the violet, which alone Prospers in some happy shade,  My Castara lives unknown   To no looser eye betrayed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our graphs are based on starting with chaos ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Â meaning we have a blast of news, and we say to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our graphs are based on starting with chaos ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Â meaning we have a blast of news, and we say to our algorithms, find some order in this.
