This, I believe, is partly due to man's enormous technical successes, which make him feel master of the human situation. But it is also partly due to our scholars and experts. By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no whaler and no whale biologist, no matter how experienced, who is so jaded that his heart does ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23117]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no whaler and no whale biologist, no matter how experienced, who is so jaded that his heart does not race at the sight of a blue whale. •Dale Rice   Nothing excites jaded grandmasters more than a theoretical novelty •Dominic Lawson   I used to be a hopeless romantic -- I fell in love with everyone I went out with.

Being innocent is happiness. Once innocence is lost there is no turning back, we have now become cynical and jaded adults •Source Unknown  We'll have to change our jaded ways, but I've loved these days. •Billy Joel  ...time misspent and faculties mis-employed, and senses jaded by labor, or impaired by excess, cannot be recalled any more than that freshness of the heart, before it has become aware of the deceits of others, and of its own. •John Randolph  I'm not jaded but I'm not controlled by my emotions. It's not that I'm emotionless, I just have the ability not to be controlled by things like love and hate. •Marilyn Manson  If I don't make it know that, I've loved you all along. Just like sunny days that, we didn't know because we're all dumb and jaded , and I pray to God I figure out whats wrong.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think there's enough evidence to support the argument that there is a recovery in information technology. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28343]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think there's enough evidence to support the argument that there is a recovery in information technology.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43815]]></link><description><![CDATA[Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43815</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old soldiers never die; They fade away! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50699]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old soldiers never die; They fade away!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is full of beauty.
