Feelings are very delusive. They often depend on mere natural temperament, and the devil wrests them to our hurt. A glowing imagination is apt to seek itself rather than God.

For where unification has been able to establish unity of ideas it has usually ended in uniformity, paralysing the growth of new ideas. And where the unification has merely brought about an artificial or imposed unity, its irksomeness has led through discord to disruption.Vitality springs from diversity- which makes for real progress so long as there is mutual toleration, based on the recognition that worse may come from an attempt to suppress differences than from acceptance of them. For this reason, the kind of peace that makes progress possible is best assured by the mutual checks created by a balance of forces- alike in the sphere of internal politics and of international relations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prosperity discovers vice, adversity discovers virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1361]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prosperity discovers vice, adversity discovers virtue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's worth at least $2 million, but probably a great deal more. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36922]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's worth at least $2 million, but probably a great deal more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peanuts' made us realize that our emotions, frustrations, hopes and dreams are common to us all, ...

The younger, on the contrary, not wishing to become the wife of an old man, was equally zealous in removing every gray hair she could find.
