They, too, stress the leap of faith and make irrationality almost a principle, dismissing the serious questions of seeking modern men as intellectual smoke-screens or diversions to conceal deeper personal problems. All this masks a desperate intellectual insecurity, barely disguised by the surrounding hedge of taboos to preserve purity. The strident intolerance of much guilt-driven evangelism betrays the same insecurity. In these circles, much that is taught has to be unlearned in the wider school of life, and it is not surprising that universities are littered with dropouts from such groups. Their non-rational, subjective faith is cruelly punctured by varsity-level questions, and many manage to survive only by resorting to a severely schizophrenic faith which they hold to be true religiously but not intellectually, historically, or scientifically.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we mean to have heroes, statesmen and philosophers, we should have learned women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28291]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we mean to have heroes, statesmen and philosophers, we should have learned women.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man is destined to drown, he will drown even in a spoonful of water. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12102]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man is destined to drown, he will drown even in a spoonful of water.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Babies haven't any hair; Old men's heads are just as bare; between the cradle and the grave lie a haircut ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27836]]></link><description><![CDATA[Babies haven't any hair; Old men's heads are just as bare; between the cradle and the grave lie a haircut and a shave.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people inside the game know about Romeo and what he can do.

Frequently, when rival parties and rival nations fought with one another as to which of two opposed dogmas was the truth, they had been arrayed against one another by more deep-seated and vital causes, and merely inscribed at the last the dogmas on their standards or chose them as watchwords or symbols. We are tired of those elaborate discussions of the fine, wire-drawn, subtle distinctions between sects, and those elaborate discussions of the principles involved in heresies, and we desire to see the real differences in life and conduct receive more attention.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hast thou not learn'd what thou art often told, A truth still sacred, and believed of old,  That no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58134]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hast thou not learn'd what thou art often told, A truth still sacred, and believed of old,  That no success attends on spears and swords   Unblest, and that the battle is the Lord's?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Its roots are in American Negro culture, which is part of the whole country's heritage, ...
