Hence a man’s reaction to monarchy is a kind of test. Monarchy can easily be ‘debunked;' but watch the faces, mark the accents of the debunkers. These are the men whose tap-root in Eden has been cut: whom no rumour of the polyphony, the dance, can reach - men to whom pebbles laid in a row are more beautiful than an arch. Yet even if they desire equality, they cannot reach it. Where men are forbidden to honour a king they honour millionaires, athletes or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If ladies be but young and fair, They have the gift to know it; and in his brain, Which is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55651]]></link><description><![CDATA[If ladies be but young and fair, They have the gift to know it; and in his brain, Which is as dry as the remainder biscuit After a voyage, he hath strange places cramm'd With observation, the which he vents In mangled forms. -As You Like It.

We do not get the soul in different ways, under different laws, from those in which we get the body and the mind. If a man does not exercise his arm, he develops no biceps muscles and if a man does not exercise his soul, he acquires no muscle in his soul, no strength of character, no vigour of moral fibre, nor beauty of spiritual growth. Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character -- the Christ-like nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62986]]></link><description><![CDATA[A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At Christmas I no more desire a rose, Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled shows;  But like of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8646]]></link><description><![CDATA[At Christmas I no more desire a rose, Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled shows;  But like of each thing that in season grows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Lord had a job for me, but I had so much to do, I said, "You get somebody else--or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62098]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Lord had a job for me, but I had so much to do, I said, "You get somebody else--or wait till I get through."  I don't know how the Lord came out, but He seemed to get along:   But I felt kinda sneakin' like, 'cause I know'd I done Him wrong.    One day I needed the Lord--Needed Him myself--needed Him right away,     And He never answered me at all, but I could hear Him say      Down in my accusin' heart, "Nigger, I'se got too much to do,       You get somebody else or wait till I get through."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Theater is, of course, a reflection of life.
