But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a woman and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called `falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's in the preparation -- in those dreary pedestrian virtues they taught you in seventh grade and you didn't believe. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5274]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's in the preparation -- in those dreary pedestrian virtues they taught you in seventh grade and you didn't believe.

Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ... Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. Character is supreme in life, hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing -- so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code but a character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alexander Hamilton originated the put and take system in our national treasury: the taxpayers put it in, and the politicians ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15692]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alexander Hamilton originated the put and take system in our national treasury: the taxpayers put it in, and the politicians take it out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How far must suffering and misery go before we see that even in the day of vast cities and powerful ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13135]]></link><description><![CDATA[How far must suffering and misery go before we see that even in the day of vast cities and powerful machines, the good earth is our mother and that if we destroy her, we destroy ourselves?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Benefits should be conferred gradually; and in that way they will taste better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Benefits should be conferred gradually; and in that way they will taste better.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are only now on the threshold of knowing the range of theeducability of man-the perfectibility of man.
