One very effective way of silencing the voice of conscience is to impound in an Ism the teacher through whom it speaks; the trumpet no longer seriously disturbs our rest when we have murmured '..Thomist', 'Barthian', or 'Existentialist'. And in Macdonald it is, always the voice of conscience that speaks. He addresses the will: the demand for obedience, for "something to be neither more nor less nor other than done" is incessant. Yet in that very voice of conscience every other faculty somehow speaks as well -- intellect and imagination and humour and fancy and all the affections; and no man in modern times was perhaps more aware of the distinction between Law and Gospel, the inevitable failure of mere morality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8517</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46519]]></link><description><![CDATA[The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a wonderful honor to be captain in an event that has given me some of the most incredible memories ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36408]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a wonderful honor to be captain in an event that has given me some of the most incredible memories that I've experienced in golf,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Galloping Gourmet isn't a zombie, just really really English. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62677]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Galloping Gourmet isn't a zombie, just really really English.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who will follow precedent, but never create one, is merely an obvious example of the routineer.

You find him desperately numerous in the civil service, in the official bureaus. To him government is something given as unconditionally, as absolutely as ocean or hill.
