Let not the authority of the writer offend thee, whether he be of great or small learning; but let the love of pure truth draw thee to read. Search not who spoke this or that, but mark what is spoken. Men pass away, but the truth of the Lord remaineth forever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There will one day spring from the brain of science a machine or force so fearful in its potentialities, so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61202]]></link><description><![CDATA[There will one day spring from the brain of science a machine or force so fearful in its potentialities, so absolutely terrifying, that even man, the fighter, who will dare torture and death in order to inflict torture and death, will be appalled, and so abandon war forever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The writer is the engineer of the human soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66338]]></link><description><![CDATA[The writer is the engineer of the human soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we consider the superiority of the human species, the size of its brain, its powers of thinking, language and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20012]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we consider the superiority of the human species, the size of its brain, its powers of thinking, language and organization, we can say this: were there the slightest possibility that another rival or superior species might appear, on earth or elsewhere, man would use every means at his disposal to destroy it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The very ink in which history is written is merely fluid prejudice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48103]]></link><description><![CDATA[The very ink in which history is written is merely fluid prejudice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13562]]></link><description><![CDATA[Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a man makes up his mind to thrash another, he must also make up his mind to be a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50410]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a man makes up his mind to thrash another, he must also make up his mind to be a little thrashed himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His faithful dog salutes the smiling guest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12654]]></link><description><![CDATA[His faithful dog salutes the smiling guest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rapport?
