It has neither accorded him a superior status to sustain his confidence nor made it easy for him to acquire an unquestioned sense of social usefulness. For he derives his sense of usefulness mainly from directing, instructing, and planning- from minding other people's business- and is bound to feel superfluous and neglected where people believe themselves competent to manage individual and communal affairs, and are impatient of supervision and regulation. A free society is as much a threat to the intellectual's sense of worth as an automated economy is to the workingman's sense of worth. Any social order that can function with a minimum of leadership will be anathema to the intellectual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11368]]></link><description><![CDATA[He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Die?

His agony was His entrance into the last, eternal terrors of the lost soul, into the real horrors of that dreadful, eternal death which man unredeemed must have died into when he left this world. We are therefore not to consider our Lord's death upon the Cross as only the death of that mortal body which was nailed to it, but we are to look upon Him with wounded hearts, as being fixed and fastened in the state of that twofold death, which was due to the fallen nature, out of which He could not come till He could say, "It is finished; Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anon, as patient as the female dove When that her golden couplets are disclosed,  His silence will sit drooping. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anon, as patient as the female dove When that her golden couplets are disclosed,  His silence will sit drooping.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No friend have I.
