One very effective way of silencing the voice of conscience is to impound in an Ism the teacher through whom it speaks; the trumpet no longer seriously disturbs our rest when we have murmured '..Thomist', 'Barthian', or 'Existentialist'. And in Macdonald it is, always the voice of conscience that speaks. He addresses the will: the demand for obedience, for "something to be neither more nor less nor other than done" is incessant. Yet in that very voice of conscience every other faculty somehow speaks as well -- intellect and imagination and humour and fancy and all the affections; and no man in modern times was perhaps more aware of the distinction between Law and Gospel, the inevitable failure of mere morality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Properly speaking, such work is never finished; one must declare it so when, according to time and circumstances, one has ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62110]]></link><description><![CDATA[Properly speaking, such work is never finished; one must declare it so when, according to time and circumstances, one has done one's best. [Ger., So eine Arbeit wird eigentlich nie fertig; man muss sie fur fertig erklaren, wenn man nach Zeit und Umstand das Moglichste getan hat.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For murder though it have no tongue, will speak With most miraculous organ. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51256]]></link><description><![CDATA[For murder though it have no tongue, will speak With most miraculous organ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or stars of morning, dew-drops which the sun Impearls on every leaf and every flower. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12196]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or stars of morning, dew-drops which the sun Impearls on every leaf and every flower.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12196</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Destiny is not a matter of chance; but a matter of choice.
