The core of religious belief is not ideological, whatever may be said of the soft pulp in which it is wrapped up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You were once wild here ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61578]]></link><description><![CDATA[You were once wild here]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is a make-believe animal: he is never so truly himself as when he is acting a part. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48180]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is a make-believe animal: he is never so truly himself as when he is acting a part.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every bonus point counts when you are trying to win it all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34552]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every bonus point counts when you are trying to win it all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47432]]></link><description><![CDATA[A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47432</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the cell were a forest, we can now pull out individual trees to study them.
