Enacting it doesn’t give them power. Enacting it gives them lives that are satisfying and meaningful to them. This is what you’ll find if you go among them. They’re not seething with discontent and rebellion, not incessantly wrangling over what should be allowed and what forbidden, not forever accusing each other of not living the right way, not living in terror of each other not going crazy because their lives seem empty and pointless, not having to stupefy themselves with drugs to get through the days, not having a new religion every week to give them something to hold on to, not forever searching for something to do or something to believe in that will make lives worth living. And – I repeat – this is not because they live close to nature or have no formal government or because they’re innately noble. This is simply because they’re enacting a story that works well for people – a story that worked well for three million years and that still works well where the Takers haven’t yet managed to stamp it out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With aching hands and bleeding feet We dig and heap, lay stone on stone;  We bear the burden and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24835]]></link><description><![CDATA[With aching hands and bleeding feet We dig and heap, lay stone on stone;  We bear the burden and the heat   Of the long day, and wish 'twere done.    Not till the hours of light return     All we have built as we discern.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For I, who hold sage Homer's rule the best, Welcome the coming, speed the going guest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19865]]></link><description><![CDATA[For I, who hold sage Homer's rule the best, Welcome the coming, speed the going guest.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who is always satisfied with himself is seldom so with others, and others as little pleased with him ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54718]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who is always satisfied with himself is seldom so with others, and others as little pleased with him]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I see professional clowns, mimes, or people that make balloon animals, I always think of their relatives and how ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27490]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I see professional clowns, mimes, or people that make balloon animals, I always think of their relatives and how disappointed they must be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To kill a relative of whom you are tired is one thing.

This faith, once given, proved to be -- like the Person who gave rise to it -- essentially self-authenticating. And ever since, the Church has looked to the Cross, a symbol of weakness, as its unique source of power in preaching the Gospel, its authority both to teach and to preach has been of this kind. No amount of liaison between the Church and the source of any other authority, political or moral, must be allowed to obscure the simplicity -- and the mystery -- of the authority of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our judgments judge us, and nothing reveals us, exposes our weaknesses, more ingeniously than the attitude of pronouncing upon our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our judgments judge us, and nothing reveals us, exposes our weaknesses, more ingeniously than the attitude of pronouncing upon our fellows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We showed something by keeping the pressure on Houston the last four games.
