But the general intellectual atmosphere of the time is always determined by the views on which the opposing schools agree. They become the unspoken presuppositions of all thought, and common and unquestioningly accepted foundations on which all discussion proceeds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Swithun, Bishop of Winchester, c.862 Commemoration of Bonaventure, Franciscan Friar, Bishop, Peacemaker, 1274   In addition to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6700]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Swithun, Bishop of Winchester, c.862 Commemoration of Bonaventure, Franciscan Friar, Bishop, Peacemaker, 1274   In addition to the general situations in which men find themselves today, there are those things in personal life which have always tested faith: the inexplicable tragedies and injustices; the suffering of innocent people, especially of children; the seeming uselessness of prayer, and so forth. It is surely life itself that makes against belief in most cases. It is the contradiction in real life between any image of God as good -- whether God is "above", "beneath", or "within" -- that makes men atheists. Yet how few books and how few sermons touch on this basic problem! Our theological libraries are crammed with books devoted to every aspect of textual and higher criticism of the Bible; but of genuine theological thinking about the things which drive religion from men's hearts, there is appallingly little to be found. The archaeology of Christian origins seems largely to have replaced genuine theology.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not the hours you put in, but what youput into the hours thatcount. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22610]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not the hours you put in, but what youput into the hours thatcount.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe this world is another planet's hell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19140]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maybe this world is another planet's hell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Defend me, therefore, common sense, say From reveries so airy, from the toil  Of dropping buckets into empty wells, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16337]]></link><description><![CDATA[Defend me, therefore, common sense, say From reveries so airy, from the toil  Of dropping buckets into empty wells,   And growing old in drawing nothing up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moral system of the universe is like a document written in alternate ciphers, which change from line to line. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43100]]></link><description><![CDATA[The moral system of the universe is like a document written in alternate ciphers, which change from line to line.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business more than any other occupation is a continual dealing with the future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5054]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business more than any other occupation is a continual dealing with the future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive exercise in foresight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Autobiography is now as common as adultery, and hardly less reprehensible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3537]]></link><description><![CDATA[Autobiography is now as common as adultery, and hardly less reprehensible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22619]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus the whirligig of time brings in his revenges. -Twelfth Night.

O, why dost not thou by love alone seek to achieve all these, by love alone attain another self, by love alone live in others, by love attain thy glory? The same is shriveled up and buried in a grave that does not love.
