If our practical life is centered on our own interests, cluttered up by possessions, distracted by ambitions, passions, wants and worries, beset by a sense of our own rights and importance, or anxieties for our own future, or longings for our own success, we need not expect that our spiritual life will be a contrast to all this. The soul's house is not built on such a convenient plan; there are few soundproof partitions in it. Only when the conviction -- not merely the idea -- that the demand of the Spirit, however inconvenient, rules the whole of it, will those objectionable noises die down which have a way of penetrating into the nicely furnished little oratory and drowning all the quieter voices by their din.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26845]]></link><description><![CDATA[The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not because things are difficult that we dare not venture.

It has run its course. It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of the great truths that will be revealed if once we see free thought begin. We have seen it end. It has no more questions to ask; it has questioned itself. You cannot call up any wilder vision than a city in which men ask themselves if they have any selves. You cannot fancy a more skeptical world than that in which men doubt whether there is a world. It might certainly have reached its bankruptcy more quickly and cleanly if it had not been feebly hampered by the application of indefensible laws of blasphemy or by the absurd pretense that modern England is Christian. But it would have reached the bankruptcy anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26302]]></link><description><![CDATA[Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou wilt never be spiritually minded and godly unless thou art silent concerning other men's matters and take full heed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7714]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou wilt never be spiritually minded and godly unless thou art silent concerning other men's matters and take full heed to thyself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Mediocrity" doesn't mean average intelligence, it means an average intelligence that resents and envies its betters. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26781]]></link><description><![CDATA["Mediocrity" doesn't mean average intelligence, it means an average intelligence that resents and envies its betters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride is the deadliest of sins, but I was bursting with pride ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39002]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride is the deadliest of sins, but I was bursting with pride]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I saw two clouds at morning Tinged by the rising sun,  And in the dawn they floated on  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8903]]></link><description><![CDATA[I saw two clouds at morning Tinged by the rising sun,  And in the dawn they floated on   And mingled into one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8903</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mourn, little harebells, o'er the lea; Ye stately foxgloves fair to see!  Ye woodbines, hanging bonnilie   In ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mourn, little harebells, o'er the lea; Ye stately foxgloves fair to see!  Ye woodbines, hanging bonnilie   In scented bowers!    Ye roses on your thorny tree     The first o' flow'rs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man or woman who tries to pursue an ideal in his or her own way is without enemies ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20264]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man or woman who tries to pursue an ideal in his or her own way is without enemies]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65885]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66276]]></link><description><![CDATA[I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63949]]></link><description><![CDATA[The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man can live happily who regards himself alone, who turns everythingto his own advantage.
