It would assuredly make a difference if Christians, in their approach one to another, realized that, in spite of appearances, they were in fact one. If, in their seeking after external reunion, they realized that they were seeking not to create a unity which does not yet exist, but to find an expression for a unity which does exist, which is indeed the one elemental reality, they would approach one another in a better frame of mind. The common recognition of the principle would in itself be a unifying force of great value, and would dispose those who shared it to approach questions of difference in a spirit of unity which would immensely assist their deliberations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When he who hears does not know what he who speaks means, and when he who speaks does not know ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46478]]></link><description><![CDATA[When he who hears does not know what he who speaks means, and when he who speaks does not know what he himself means, that is philosophy]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray, n:.

In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world. It is also the language of the Bible, of the parables of Christ, which the rationalist of today finds it so difficult to understand, of the Word of God which demands of us not a discussion but a personal decision.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In dress, habits, manners, provincialism, routine and narrowness, he acquired that charming insolence, that irritating completeness, that sophisticated crassness, that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44434]]></link><description><![CDATA[In dress, habits, manners, provincialism, routine and narrowness, he acquired that charming insolence, that irritating completeness, that sophisticated crassness, that overbalanced poise that makes the Manhattan gentleman so delightfully small in his greatness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's about getting mad, getting crazy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34455]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's about getting mad, getting crazy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mysterious is always attractive.
