It is not its task to tell people what ends they should aim at. It is a science of the means to be applied for attainment of ends chosen, not, to be sure, a science of the choosing of ends. Ultimate decisions, the valuations and the choosing of ends, are beyond the scope of any science. Science never tells a man how he should act; it merely shows how a man must act if he wants to attain definite ends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discharge is my first.

Yet they are quite incapable of filling the gap, because this infinite gulf can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object -- that is, God, Himself. He alone is man's veritable good, and since man has deserted Him it is a strange thing that there is nothing in nature that has not been capable of taking His place for man: stars, sky, earth, elements, plants, cabbages, leeks, animals, insects, calves, serpents, fever, plague, war, famine, vices, adultery, incest. And since he has lost the true good, everything can equally appear to him as such -- even his own destruction, though that is so contrary at once to God, to reason, and to nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nor all that heralds rake from coffin'd clay, Nor florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme,  Can blazon evil ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10654]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nor all that heralds rake from coffin'd clay, Nor florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme,  Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tim's characters tend to wear darker colors and some, like the corpse bride, are no longer living, but they have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38848]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tim's characters tend to wear darker colors and some, like the corpse bride, are no longer living, but they have a pluck and a spirit that makes you fall in love with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64374]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To-morrow never yet On any human being rose or set. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59458]]></link><description><![CDATA[To-morrow never yet On any human being rose or set.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man can serve two masters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26229]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man can serve two masters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heroism is accessible.

It was wonderful to touch one of them and think, Perhaps the Apostle Paul or one of the martyrs touched this as they passed. But how much more wonderful is it to think that we have, for our own use, the very same sword our Lord used when the Devil attacked Him. [Brooke Foss] Westcott says "the Word of God" in Ephesians 6:17 means "a definite utterance of God". We know these "definite utterances" -- we have the same Book that He had, and we can do as He did. So let us learn the "definite utterances" that they may be ready in our minds; ready for use at the moment of need -- our sword which never grows dull and rusty, but is always keen and bright. So once more I say, let us not expect defeat but victory. Let us take fast hold and keep fast hold of our sword, and we shall win in any assault of the enemy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Abortion is inherently different from other medical procedures because no other procedure involves the purposeful termination of a potential life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/119]]></link><description><![CDATA[Abortion is inherently different from other medical procedures because no other procedure involves the purposeful termination of a potential life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woes cluster; rare are solitary woes; They love a train, they tread each other's heel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51869]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woes cluster; rare are solitary woes; They love a train, they tread each other's heel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My days are in the yellow leaf; The flowers and fruits of love are gone;  The worm, the canker, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1729]]></link><description><![CDATA[My days are in the yellow leaf; The flowers and fruits of love are gone;  The worm, the canker, and the grief   Are mine alone!   - Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron),]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1729</guid></item></channel></rss>
