We are shaped by people we have never met. Yes, reading history will make you a better citizen and more appreciative of the law, and of freedom, and of how the economy works or doesn't work, but it is also an immense pleasure—the way art is, or music is, or poetry is. And it's never stale."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was very cool.

In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Philosophers have argued for centuries about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, but materialists have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2515]]></link><description><![CDATA[Philosophers have argued for centuries about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, but materialists have always known it depends on whether they are jitterbugging or dancing cheek to cheek]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would like to think I have a great deal of expertise, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31098]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would like to think I have a great deal of expertise,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pursuit of the good and evil are now linked in astronomy as in almost all science. . . . ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54828]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pursuit of the good and evil are now linked in astronomy as in almost all science. . . .
