That religion is strong which in its ritual and its modes of thought evokes an apprehension of the commanding vision. The worship of God is not a rule of safety: it is an adventure of the spirit, a flight after the unattainable.

Unfortunately, the popular effect of this scientific advance has been a belief, seemingly shared by many scientists, that the range of our ignorance is steadily diminishing and that we can therefore aim at more comprehensive and deliberate control of all human activities. It is for this reason that those intoxicated by the advance of knowledge so often become the enemies of freedom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fanaticism is overcompensation for doubt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15255]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fanaticism is overcompensation for doubt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15255</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are several good protections against temptations, but the surest is cowardice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58914]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are several good protections against temptations, but the surest is cowardice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You’re through.

The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! happy years! once more who would not be a boy! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62563]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah! happy years! once more who would not be a boy!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't want a vote on this tonight, Bert, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38125]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't want a vote on this tonight, Bert,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Women are not so well united as to form an Insurrection.

It understands the way your nerves flare everytime you think about talking to anyone, scared into shyness at the thought of opening your mouth but the way you are the best hypocrite around when you're in front of a microphone. It knows what turns that switch on and off and on again. It understands the way when you don't have a smile on your face everyone only spits: "what's wrong"s and "you look tired"s. So the way you keep it on your face just wide enough to avoid questions. It understands how neurotic you have become, the way you treat your flaws like old friends.
