You will see at once that this is an impossibility. From considering how the cruelty of our ancestors looks to us, you may get some inkling of how our softness, worldliness, and timidity would have looked to them, and hence how both must look to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11616]]></link><description><![CDATA[The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This survival of the fittest, which I have here sought to express in mechanical terms, is that which Mr. Darwin ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14361]]></link><description><![CDATA[This survival of the fittest, which I have here sought to express in mechanical terms, is that which Mr. Darwin has called "natural selection, or the preservation of favoured races in the struggle for life."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to.

And one of the games to which it is most attached is called, ''Keep tomorrow dark,'' and which is also named (by the rustics in Shropshire, I have no doubt) ''Cheat the Prophet.'' The players listen very carefully and respectfully to all that the clever men have to say about what is to happen in the next generation. The players then wait until all the clever men are dead, and bury them nicely. Then they go and do something else. That is all. For a race of simple tastes, however, it is great fun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One thought fills immensity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59219]]></link><description><![CDATA[One thought fills immensity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's armed without that's innocent within. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20958]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's armed without that's innocent within.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intuition is truly a feminine quality, but women should not mistake rash conclusions for this gift ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intuition is truly a feminine quality, but women should not mistake rash conclusions for this gift]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Talking payes no toll. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49786]]></link><description><![CDATA[Talking payes no toll.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49786</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I attended the event in Napa in July and it was amazing, so when we heard about this one, we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33329]]></link><description><![CDATA[I attended the event in Napa in July and it was amazing, so when we heard about this one, we had to sign up.
