It has neither accorded him a superior status to sustain his confidence nor made it easy for him to acquire an unquestioned sense of social usefulness. For he derives his sense of usefulness mainly from directing, instructing, and planning- from minding other people's business- and is bound to feel superfluous and neglected where people believe themselves competent to manage individual and communal affairs, and are impatient of supervision and regulation. A free society is as much a threat to the intellectual's sense of worth as an automated economy is to the workingman's sense of worth. Any social order that can function with a minimum of leadership will be anathema to the intellectual.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The theme from here until after Labor Day is going to be more postponements. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35921]]></link><description><![CDATA[The theme from here until after Labor Day is going to be more postponements.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is pleasant.

Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.  ... Jeremy Taylor  August 14, 2000 Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inflation appears to be muted, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Inflation appears to be muted,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bodies were in such bad shape they said there was no other way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39306]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bodies were in such bad shape they said there was no other way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Modesty, who, when she goes, Is gone for ever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50543]]></link><description><![CDATA[And Modesty, who, when she goes, Is gone for ever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I could never accept findings based almost exclusively on mathematics. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34330]]></link><description><![CDATA[I could never accept findings based almost exclusively on mathematics.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cat will look down to a man.

It is not enough to express formal belief in the "Incarnation" or in the "Divinity of. Christ"; the staggering truth must be accepted afresh -- that in this vast, mysterious universe, of which we are an almost infinitesimal part, the great Mystery, Whom we call God, has visited our planet in Person. It is from this conviction that there springs unconquerable certainty and unquenchable faith and hope. It is not enough to believe theoretically that Jesus was both God and Man; not enough to admire, respect, and even worship Him; it is not even enough to try to follow Him. The reason for the insufficiency of these things is that the modern intelligent mind, which has had its horizons widened in dozens of different ways, has got to be shocked afresh by the audacious central Fact -- that, as a sober matter of history, God became one of us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The injuries we do and those we suffer are seldom weighed in the same scales. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58213]]></link><description><![CDATA[The injuries we do and those we suffer are seldom weighed in the same scales.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were within one offense touchdown in the first half.
