How things really are --- and always will be --- is neither all-evil nor all-good but deficient, inconsistent, inferior. Principles invite us to do something about the morass of contradictions in which we function morally. Principles invite us to clean up our act; to become intolerant of moral laxity and compromise and cowardice and the turning away from what is upsetting: that secret gnawing of the heart that tells us that what we are doing is not right, and so counsels us that we'd be better off just not thinking about it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Parent of sweetest sounds, yet mute forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Parent of sweetest sounds, yet mute forever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They are observing the increase of our cropland and may become important suppliers, as Brazil imports over 50% of its ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28247]]></link><description><![CDATA[They are observing the increase of our cropland and may become important suppliers, as Brazil imports over 50% of its needs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though peace be made, yet it's interest that keep peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45883]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though peace be made, yet it's interest that keep peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45883</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25728]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clyde was just unconscious tonight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37917]]></link><description><![CDATA[Clyde was just unconscious tonight.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37917</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38662]]></link><description><![CDATA[All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men have an instinct for conflict: at least, all healthy men. - The Silence of the Sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44175]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men have an instinct for conflict: at least, all healthy men. - The Silence of the Sea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one's meditations on the text and the disclosures ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53076]]></link><description><![CDATA[What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one's meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But were there ever any Writhed not at passed joy? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23428]]></link><description><![CDATA[But were there ever any Writhed not at passed joy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is an imperceptible atom always trying to become one with God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is an imperceptible atom always trying to become one with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't pretend we have all the answers.

And this often in all sincerity. But, at other times, we are not really much disturbed about it; or, at least, not nearly so much as our heaped-up language would imply. What we imagine that we are achieving through this unreality I do not know. We shall not fool the All-wise; nor induce Him to believe that we are anything other, or better, than we actually are! Were it not saner to tell Him the truth, exactly as it is -- not that we are overwhelmed with sorrow for our sinfulness, if it is not so; but rather this, that, to all our other sinfulness, we have added this last and crowning sinfulness, that we are not much worried about it, or, at least, not nearly as much as we ought to be. Be pleased, in pity, to grant us such measure of sorrow for our failures as will lead us to a true repentance; and, through that, to a new way of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I remain just one thing, and one thing only -- and that is a clown.
