Now, mind you, that is quite true; but it tells you much less than the whole truth about Christianity, and it has no practical importance at all. It is quite true that, if we took Christ's advice, we should soon be living in a happier world. You need not even go as far as Christ. If we did all that... Confucius told us, we should get on a great deal better than we do. And so what?... If Christianity only means one more bit of good advice, then Christianity is of no importance. There has been no lack of good advice for the last four thousand years. A bit more makes no difference.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your're not practicing, somebody else is, somewhere, and he'll be ready to take your job. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48125]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your're not practicing, somebody else is, somewhere, and he'll be ready to take your job.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art always has something of the unconscious about it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art always has something of the unconscious about it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men so noble, However faulty, yet should find respect  For what they have been: 'tis a cruelty   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10795]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men so noble, However faulty, yet should find respect  For what they have been: 'tis a cruelty   To load a falling man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hail, guest, we ask not what thou art; If friend, we greet thee, hand and heart;  If stranger, such ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18430]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hail, guest, we ask not what thou art; If friend, we greet thee, hand and heart;  If stranger, such no longer be;   If foe, our love shall conquer thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is hard to tell if a man is telling the truth when you know you would lie if you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26156]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is hard to tell if a man is telling the truth when you know you would lie if you were in his place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature is the master of talents; genius is the master of nature.   - Josiah Gilbert Holland (used pseudonym ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17322]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature is the master of talents; genius is the master of nature.   - Josiah Gilbert Holland (used pseudonym Timothy Titcomb),]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride attaches undue importance to the superiority of one's status in the eyes of others; And shame is fear of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56118]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride attaches undue importance to the superiority of one's status in the eyes of others; And shame is fear of humiliation at one's inferior status in the estimation of others.
