He has enough light to light him on his way, but there are a great many gaps in his knowledge. When he says, "One day we shall understand", he is by no means always uttering a pious platitude. Quite frequently he is voicing a solid conviction, a genuine facet of hope. At present his vision is severely limited, and that is probably just as well, if his sanity is to be preserved. But when he is free of the limitations of temporal life, he has every hope of being able to know as surely as he is at present known.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old as I am, for ladies' love unfit, The power of beauty I remember yet,  Which once inflam'd my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3853]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old as I am, for ladies' love unfit, The power of beauty I remember yet,  Which once inflam'd my soul, and still inspires my wit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Silence gives consent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56296]]></link><description><![CDATA[Silence gives consent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A knave’s religion is always the rottenest thing about him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23895]]></link><description><![CDATA[A knave’s religion is always the rottenest thing about him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People of substance may sin without being exposed for their stolen pleasure; but servants and the poorer sort of women ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44169]]></link><description><![CDATA[People of substance may sin without being exposed for their stolen pleasure; but servants and the poorer sort of women have seldom an opportunity of concealing a big belly, or at least the consequences of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The question is not whether we will be extremists, but what kind of extremists we will be...The nation and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52431]]></link><description><![CDATA[The question is not whether we will be extremists, but what kind of extremists we will be...The nation and the world are in dire need of creative extremists.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have not yet reached a consensus. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39008]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have not yet reached a consensus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things are very dry right now - extremely dry.

Now hath my life across a stormy sea  Like a frail bark reached that wide port where all  Are bidden, ere the final reckoning fall Of good and evil for eternity. Now know I well how that fond phantasy  Which made my soul the worshipper and thrall  Of earthly art, is vain; how criminal Is that which all men seek unwillingly. Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed,  What are they when the double death is nigh?  The one I know for sure, the other dread. Painting nor sculpture now can lull to rest  My soul that turns to His great love on high,  Whose arms to clasp us on the cross were spread.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You never know where the limit will be.

It is not some crack in an otherwise flawless stone. It is, quite spectacularly I think, art which is not based on the subjugation of one half of the species. It is art which will take the great human themes --love, death, heroism, suffering, history itself --and render them fully human. It may also, though perhaps our imaginations are so mutilated now that we are incapable even of the ambition, introduce a new theme, one as great and as rich as those others --should we call it "joy"?.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All he needs is a little time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38173]]></link><description><![CDATA[All he needs is a little time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discipline is a symbol of caring to a child.
