People just taking the chemicals and diving in without having any kind of preparation about what they're about to experience tend to have no frame of reference, so they're missing everything flying by and all these new perspectives. It's just a waste. They reach a little bit of spiritual enlightenment, but they end up going, 'Well, now I need that drug to get back there again.' The trick is to use the drugs once to get there, and maybe spend the next ten years trying to get back there without the drug.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I picked up those little girls that drowned, all I could think about was my grandbabies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37121]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I picked up those little girls that drowned, all I could think about was my grandbabies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who dictates separates himself from others.

When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In all recorded history there has not been one economist who has had to worry about where the next meal ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15822]]></link><description><![CDATA[In all recorded history there has not been one economist who has had to worry about where the next meal would come from.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was showing early symptoms of becoming a professional baseball man.

Instead of the living, loving, self-manifesting God of the Old Testament Israel now took hold of the abstract idea of the unity, or rather the unicity, of God, as if that were God. Before -- when they lived in communion with God, when God was known to them as a Person, speaking, acting, blessing, who had chosen them, who was educating them, and who was going to fulfill His promises -- they declared, in opposition to the idolatrous nations that surrounded them, that this God of Israel was one God, that there are not many gods; but when they lost communion with God, in order to show what distinguished them from the nations of the earth, and especially from Christians, they emphasized that God in Himself was only one Person, and not as He is revealed to us in the Scripture: Sender, Sent, and Spirit. It is the boast of the modern Jewish synagogue that their great mission is to testify to the world the unity of God. But it is a striking fact that the Gentile nations who have, since the dispersion of Israel, been converted from idolatry, have been influenced, not by the synagogue, but by the congregations of Jesus Christ, and were baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost... It is one thing to believe in justification by faith, it is another thing to be justified by faith; and so it is one thing to believe in God, who is One, and it is another to believe in the numerical abstraction, in the mere idea of unicity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The opposition seems to be very disorganized, weak, ...
