His imagination has rarely extricated itself from under the administrative machine to gain any sense of what a human, temporary contraption the whole affair is. What he thinks is the heavens above him is nothing but the roof.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To sit, happy married lovers; Phillis trifling with a plover's Egg, while Corydon uncovers with a grace the Sally Lunn, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26561]]></link><description><![CDATA[To sit, happy married lovers; Phillis trifling with a plover's Egg, while Corydon uncovers with a grace the Sally Lunn,  Or dissects the luck pheasant--that, I think, were passing pleasant   As I sit along at present, dreaming darkly of a dun.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26561</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's only words...unless they're true. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27898]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's only words...unless they're true.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm an optimist in the sense that I believe humans are noble and honorable, and some of them are really ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63980]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm an optimist in the sense that I believe humans are noble and honorable, and some of them are really smart.

Its complete bondage to nature has enclosed the mind and spirit of man in a fast prison out of which, try as he may, he can find no way of escape.

The only way to dispel the darkness of the present age and liberate it from the prison within which it has become bound is to restore the proper relationship of nature to supernature and of time to eternity as an essential feature of external reality. Until this can be accomplished, there is really very little that the Church or Christianity in general has to offer to this age.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the one hundred and tenth anniversary of the birthday of Washington.
