We do not normally reflect that this sense of solidarity is very often gained at the expense of the unity which we ought to be experiencing with our fellow-Christian next door who belongs to a different denomination.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is to be preferred before justice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is to be preferred before justice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My glass is not large, but I drink from my glass. [Fr., Mon verre n'est pas grand, mais je bois ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62335]]></link><description><![CDATA[My glass is not large, but I drink from my glass. [Fr., Mon verre n'est pas grand, mais je bois dans mon verre.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition is the germ from which all growth of nobleness proceeds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2352]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambition is the germ from which all growth of nobleness proceeds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43019]]></link><description><![CDATA[The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5996]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear in all eternity....

Now, once again may I ask you the question, Is the Church cruel when she points this out, and demands that men should see it and take account of it in all the arrangements of this life? Surely the cruelty lies with those who talk glibly about the brotherhood of man, and superficially about peace, and romantically about marriage, as though the disturbances in Church and state and family were introduced into human life by a few evil-minded men. This is the real cruelty. How will you face up later to your married life, to your administration of affairs, to your life in the Church, in fact to any real part of your lives, if you are taught to think that your neighbour will or ought to agree with you in all points, will accept your solutions of his problems, will in fact be a reflection of your image? Once we get this stuff and nonsense into our heads, we shall never be able to live with anyone or with any group of men. We shall sulk when we are crossed, or run away from the Other -- for Other they are. We shall certainly remove ourselves from the Church when we find it full of friction and yet proclaiming the love of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we're trying to avoid is someone who can't afford a $20 co-pay from leaving a pharmacy without getting their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38936]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we're trying to avoid is someone who can't afford a $20 co-pay from leaving a pharmacy without getting their medicine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38936</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All mankind love a lover. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63645]]></link><description><![CDATA[All mankind love a lover.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fine words dresse ill deedes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fine words dresse ill deedes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That particular exclusion has disproportionately affected black American citizens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29669]]></link><description><![CDATA[That particular exclusion has disproportionately affected black American citizens.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29669</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To say nothing of its holiness or authority, the Bible contains more specimens of genius and taste than any other ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53621]]></link><description><![CDATA[To say nothing of its holiness or authority, the Bible contains more specimens of genius and taste than any other volume in existence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53621</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God never repents of what He has first resolved upon. [Lat., Nec unquam primi consilii deos peonitet.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53827]]></link><description><![CDATA[God never repents of what He has first resolved upon. [Lat., Nec unquam primi consilii deos peonitet.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In thinking of America, I sometimes find myself admiring her bright blue sky-her grand old woods-her fertile fields-her beautiful rivers-her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56571]]></link><description><![CDATA[In thinking of America, I sometimes find myself admiring her bright blue sky-her grand old woods-her fertile fields-her beautiful rivers-her mighty lakes and star-crowned mountains.
