It is not, as poverty was before, the result of natural scarcity, but of a set of priorities imposed upon the rest of the world by the rich.

The twentieth-century consumer economy has produced the first culture for which a beggar is a reminder of nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A well-bred youth neither speakes of himselfe, nor being spoken to is silent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49083]]></link><description><![CDATA[A well-bred youth neither speakes of himselfe, nor being spoken to is silent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That he that readeth may run over it. [Lat., Ut percurrat qui legerit eum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52999]]></link><description><![CDATA[That he that readeth may run over it. [Lat., Ut percurrat qui legerit eum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If someone says "can't," that shows you what to do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21464]]></link><description><![CDATA[If someone says "can't," that shows you what to do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63755]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder one another in cold blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What were vices have become the fashion of the day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51209]]></link><description><![CDATA[What were vices have become the fashion of the day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only thing worse than a silly politician analyzing art is a silly artist analyzing politics ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39023]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only thing worse than a silly politician analyzing art is a silly artist analyzing politics]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it or leave it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63531]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it or leave it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26250]]></link><description><![CDATA[To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This change in our name better reflects who we are and where we are going. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33004]]></link><description><![CDATA[This change in our name better reflects who we are and where we are going.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gardens are a form of autobiography. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17190]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gardens are a form of autobiography.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17190</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61670]]></link><description><![CDATA[He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth; And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing can atone for the lack of modesty; without which beauty is ungraceful and wit detestable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing can atone for the lack of modesty; without which beauty is ungraceful and wit detestable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who can love the man he fears. or by who he thinks he is himself feared?

In fact, however, faith in Jesus Christ crucified and risen did not first appear at some later stage in the tradition, but was the foundation of the tradition, the very soil out of which it grew; and it is in light of that faith alone that the tradition can be understood. This faith in Jesus Christ, the Crucified and Exalted One, explains both the things which the primitive tradition makes known to us, with its manifest concern for the factual truth of the tradition about Jesus, and at the same time the peculiar liberty which the evangelists take in making alterations in the record in points of detail. In relating the acts and words of Jesus, they do not refer back to any sort of "archives" possessed by the community... Jesus Christ is not for them a figure of past history whose proper place is in a library.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's hard for the modern generation to understand Thoreau, who lived beside a pond but didn't own water skis or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43934]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's hard for the modern generation to understand Thoreau, who lived beside a pond but didn't own water skis or a snorkel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War will cease when men refuse to fight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27657]]></link><description><![CDATA[War will cease when men refuse to fight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh! could I throw aside these earthly bands That tie me down where wretched mortals sigh--  To join blest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11957]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh! could I throw aside these earthly bands That tie me down where wretched mortals sigh--  To join blest spirits in celestial lands!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's weird.
