When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Saint: A dead sinner revised and edited. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Saint: A dead sinner revised and edited.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime rot and consume themselves in little time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16273]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime rot and consume themselves in little time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The lustre of diamonds is invigorated by the interposition of darker bodies; the lights of a picture are created by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10037]]></link><description><![CDATA[The lustre of diamonds is invigorated by the interposition of darker bodies; the lights of a picture are created by the shades; the highest pleasure which nature has indulged to sensitive perception is that of rest after fatigue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10037</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In other men we faults may spy, And blame the mote that dims their eye;  Each little speck and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23532]]></link><description><![CDATA[In other men we faults may spy, And blame the mote that dims their eye;  Each little speck and blemish find,   To our own stronger errors blind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[In Clovis,] we'll lose about a million dollars, ...

One does not find the optative forms of polite petition so characteristic of elaborate requests made to earthly and heavenly potentates. Rather than employing such august forms, the Christians made their requests to God in what seem to be blunt imperatives. This does not mean that Christians lacked respect for their heavenly father, but it does mean that they were consistent with a new understanding of Him. In the tens of thousands of papyri fragments which have been rescued from the rubbish heaps of the ancient Greek world, one finds the imperative forms used constantly between members of a family. When the Christians addressed God as "Father," it was perfectly natural therefore for them to talk to Him as intimately as they would to their own father. Unfortunately, the history of our own English language has almost reversed this process. Originally, men used "thou" and "thee" in prayer because it was the appropriate familiar form of address; but now these words have become relegated to prayer alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is maintained that a society is free only when dissenting minorities have room to throw their weight around.
