It may be better laid at the door of the church [that] has failed to preach the God of the Bible, heaven and hell, repentance, faith, and eternal life. It can be argued that a society only gets the advertising it deserves. Yet the power to commend certain patterns of spending behaviour to millions with regularity is an open invitation to orchestrate the covetousness, envy, lust, and desire to dominate, which lie in the heart of sinful man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hate quotations.

But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating, and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a women and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called "falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can keep from a child all knowledge of earlier myths, but we cannot take from him the need for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43603]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can keep from a child all knowledge of earlier myths, but we cannot take from him the need for mythology]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the end truth will out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51406]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the end truth will out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The industry is working on tags as small as the dot of on the letter 'i', or tags can be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39571]]></link><description><![CDATA[The industry is working on tags as small as the dot of on the letter 'i', or tags can be woven into fabric, in effect hiding them from the consumer.
