There is a Pagan, savage heart in me somewhere. For unfortunately the folly and idiot-cunning of Paganism seem to have far more power of surviving than its innocent or even beautiful elements. It is easy, once you have power, to silence the pipes, still the dances, disfigure the statues, and forget the stories; but not easy to kill the savage, the greedy, frightened creature now cringing, now blustering in one's soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Edwards commented as he signed an extension to his contract.

They never fail to help widows; they save orphans from those who would hurt them. If a man has something, he gives freely to the man who has nothing. If they see a stranger, Christians take him home and are happy, as though he were a real brother. They don't consider themselves brothers in the usual sense, but brothers instead through the Spirit, in God. And if they hear that one of them is in jail, or persecuted for professing the name of their redeemer, they all give him what he needs -- if it is possible, they bail him out. If one of them is poor and there isn't enough food to go around, they fast several days to give him the food he needs... This is really a new kind of person. There is something divine in them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[(ADR) allows parties to control and design the outcome of their disputes by crafting creative solutions that avoid the randomness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29968]]></link><description><![CDATA[(ADR) allows parties to control and design the outcome of their disputes by crafting creative solutions that avoid the randomness of trial decisions, ...

Every man is born under the yoke, and grows up beneath the oppressions of his age. He can only get a vision of the unselfish forces in the world by appealing to them, and every appeal is a call to arms. If he fights he must fight, not one man, but a conspiracy. He is always at war with a civilization. On his side is proverbial philosophy, a galaxy of invisible saints and sages, and the half-developed consciousness and professions of everybody. Against him is the world, and every selfish passion in his own heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The disesteem into which moralists have fallen is due at bottom to their failure to see that in an age ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43118]]></link><description><![CDATA[The disesteem into which moralists have fallen is due at bottom to their failure to see that in an age like this one the function of the moralist is not to exhort men to be good but to elucidate what the good is.

Over the kingdom of the elemental forces, over the kingdom of the animal, over the kingdom of the intellect, He beheld rising, with Himself as prophet and embodiment, that kingdom of the spiritual whose forces should be those of purity and sacrifice, love and trust, obedience and service. It is the last of the kingdoms because it is the highest; it will be the most enduring for there is nothing that can take its place.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't steal.
