Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who cannot resist temptation is not a man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58919]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who cannot resist temptation is not a man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century    In questions of this sort there are two things ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Katherine of Alexandria, Martyr, 4th century    In questions of this sort there are two things to be observed. First, that the truth of the Scriptures be inviolably maintained. Secondly, since Scripture doth admit of diverse interpretations, that no one cling to any particular exposition with such pertinacity that, if what he supposed to be the teaching of Scripture should afterward turn out to be clearly false, he should nevertheless still presume to put it forward, lest thereby the sacred Scriptures should be exposed to the derision of unbelievers and the way of salvation should be closed to them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is just the beginning, ...

A Fox, seeing this, longed to possess the meat himself, and by a wily stratagem succeeded. How handsome is the Crow, he exclaimed, in the beauty of her shape and in the fairness of her complexion! Oh, if her voice were only equal to her beauty, she would deservedly be considered the Queen of Birds! This he said deceitfully; but the Crow, anxious to refute the reflection cast upon her voice, set up a loud caw and dropped the flesh. The Fox quickly picked it up, and thus addressed the Crow: My good Crow, your voice is right enough, but your wit is wanting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Force shites upon Reason's Back. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16434]]></link><description><![CDATA[Force shites upon Reason's Back.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10022]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only the sea intoning, Only the wainscot-mouse,  Only the wild wind moaning   Over the lonely house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11564]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only the sea intoning, Only the wainscot-mouse,  Only the wild wind moaning   Over the lonely house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look you!

As Christ gives Himself to feed us, so we have to incarnate something of His all-loving, all-sacrificing soul. If we do not, then we have not really received Him. That is the plain truth. It has been said that there are many ways and degrees of receiving the Blessed Sacrament. It really depends on how wide we open our hearts. A spiritually selfish communion is not a communion at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've written some poetry I don't understand myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46816]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've written some poetry I don't understand myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be yourself, don't take anyone's shit, and never let them take you alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20765]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be yourself, don't take anyone's shit, and never let them take you alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2003]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is our last, best chance to grow up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Say Jessica was working on a math problem ...
