They soon began to boast of their respective superiority to each other in strength and prowess. As they were disputing, they passed a statue carved in stone, which represented a Lion strangled by a Man. The traveler pointed to it and said: See there! How strong we are, and how we prevail over even the king of beasts. The Lion replied: This statue was made by one of you men. If we Lions knew how to erect statues, you would see the Man placed under the paw of the Lion. One story is good, till another is told.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A friend is a second self. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16855]]></link><description><![CDATA[A friend is a second self.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16855</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ideals are very often formed in the effort to escape from the hard task of dealing with facts, which is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ideals are very often formed in the effort to escape from the hard task of dealing with facts, which is the function of science and art. There is no process by which to reach an ideal. There are no tests by which to verify it. It is therefore impossible to frame a proposition about an ideal which can be proved or disproved. It follows that the use of ideals is to be strictly limited to proper cases, and that the attempt to use ideals in social discussion does not deserve serious consideration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who gossips with you will gossip of you ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17874]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who gossips with you will gossip of you]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Language, as symbol, determines much of the nature and quality of our experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Language, as symbol, determines much of the nature and quality of our experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will not allow violence and we will not allow terrorists to derail this process here in Iraq, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29774]]></link><description><![CDATA[We will not allow violence and we will not allow terrorists to derail this process here in Iraq,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29774</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I play in the low 80's.

Is it a total contradiction of it? Is it some sort of a reflection of it? or perhaps a devil's parody of it? Or has it nothing to do with it at all? Perhaps there will be many Christians to whom it would not occur to pose the question whether the process of secularization has anything to do with the biblical understanding of the goal of history. The Bible, for them, belongs to a religious world which is not admitted to belong to the world of secular events -- the world in which we are when we read the daily newspaper. But this is to read the Bible wrongly. Whatever else it may be, the Bible is a secular book dealing with the sort of events which a news editor accepts for publication in a daily newspaper; it is concerned with secular events, wars, revolutions, enslavements and liberations, migrants and refugees, famines and epidemics and all the rest. It deals with events which happened and tells a story which can be checked. We miss this because we do not sufficiently treat the Bible as a whole. When we do this, we see at once that the Bible -- whatever be the variety of material which it contains: poetry, prayers, legislation, genealogy, and all the rest -- is in its main design a universal history. It is an interpretation of human history as a whole, beginning with the saga of creation and ending with a vision of the gathering together of all the nations and the consummation of God's purpose for mankind. The Bible is an outline of world history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He ne'er consider'd it as loth To look a gift-horse in the mouth,  And very wisely would lay forth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17432]]></link><description><![CDATA[He ne'er consider'd it as loth To look a gift-horse in the mouth,  And very wisely would lay forth   No more upon it than 'twas worth;    But as he got it freely, so     He spent it frank and freely too:      For saints themselves will sometimes be,       Of gifts that cost them nothing, free.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When people lose their ties to the land they grow corrupt.
