It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Books are the compasses and telescopes and sextants and charts which othermen have prepared to help us navigate the dangerous ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55059]]></link><description><![CDATA[Books are the compasses and telescopes and sextants and charts which othermen have prepared to help us navigate the dangerous seas of human life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55059</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody outside of a baby carriage or a judge's chamber believes in an unprejudiced point of view. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66123]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody outside of a baby carriage or a judge's chamber believes in an unprejudiced point of view.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The religious desire and effort of the soul to relate itself and all its interest to God and his will, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6574]]></link><description><![CDATA[The religious desire and effort of the soul to relate itself and all its interest to God and his will, is prayer in the deepest sense. This is essential prayer: uttered or unexpressed, it is equally prayer. It is the soul's desire after God going forth in a manifestation, ... the soul striving after God. This is a prayer that may exist without ceasing, consisting, as it does, not in doing or saying this or that, but in temper and attitude of the spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What want these outlaws conquerors should have But History's purchased page to call them great? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19315]]></link><description><![CDATA[What want these outlaws conquerors should have But History's purchased page to call them great?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no such thing as talent.
