When we select for serious consideration those doctrines which "transcend" the thought of his own age and are "for all time", we are assuming that the thought of our age is correct: for of course by thoughts which transcend the great man's age we really mean thoughts that agree with ours. Thus I value Shakespeare's picture of the transformation in old Lear more than I value his views about the divine right of kings, because I agree with Shakespeare that a man can be purified by suffering like Lear, but do not believe that kings (or any other rulers) have divine right in the sense required. When the great man's views do not seem to us erroneous we do not value them the less for having been shared with his contemporaries. Shakespeare's disdain for treachery and Christ's blessing on the poor were not alien to the outlook of their respective periods; but no one wishes to discredit them on that account.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Farewell!" For in that word--that fatal word--howe'er  We promise--hope--believe--there breathes despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19767]]></link><description><![CDATA["Farewell!" For in that word--that fatal word--howe'er  We promise--hope--believe--there breathes despair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am overwhelmed by the grace and persistence of my people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46203]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am overwhelmed by the grace and persistence of my people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His fair large front and eye sublime declared Absolute rule; and hyacinthine locks  Round from his parted forelock manly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54485]]></link><description><![CDATA[His fair large front and eye sublime declared Absolute rule; and hyacinthine locks  Round from his parted forelock manly hung   Clustering but not beneath his shoulders broad.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth.
