In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world. It is also the language of the Bible, of the parables of Christ, which the rationalist of today finds it so difficult to understand, of the Word of God which demands of us not a discussion but a personal decision.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception, the one who lies with sincerity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20244]]></link><description><![CDATA[The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception, the one who lies with sincerity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All that glisters is not gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2811]]></link><description><![CDATA[All that glisters is not gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2811</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death and taxes are both certain... but death isn't annual. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11428]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death and taxes are both certain... but death isn't annual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My wife is a sex object - every time I ask for sex, she objects. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55269]]></link><description><![CDATA[My wife is a sex object - every time I ask for sex, she objects.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is one long process of getting tired. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24952]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is one long process of getting tired.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Protests demonstrate our marvelous democratic system. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39824]]></link><description><![CDATA[Protests demonstrate our marvelous democratic system.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39824</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good film is when the price of the dinner, the theatre admission and the babysitter were worth it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43366]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good film is when the price of the dinner, the theatre admission and the babysitter were worth it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We never expected to get this far.

Therefore he must not feel too keenly the burden of responsibility, because at the end of the day all he can say is, "We are unprofitable servants". This knowledge, far from inhibiting action, actually releases the Christian from that appalling feeling of responsibility that has driven so many high-minded humanists to despair, even to suicide... Work done conscientiously by the Christian is his share in Christ's service; but it is Christ's service, and therefore the Christian need neither be proud because it has succeeded or overwhelmed because it has failed. The service of Christ is supremely expressed in the apparent failure of the Cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gentleman [Josiah Quincy] cannot have forgotten his own sentiment, uttered even on the floor of this House, "Peaceably if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45880]]></link><description><![CDATA[The gentleman [Josiah Quincy] cannot have forgotten his own sentiment, uttered even on the floor of this House, "Peaceably if we can, forcibly if we must."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Went in at the one eare and out at the other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Went in at the one eare and out at the other.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30682]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's been below average in a lot of places.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30682</guid></item></channel></rss>
