Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jack was embarrassed--never hero more, And as he knew not what to say, he swore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58469]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jack was embarrassed--never hero more, And as he knew not what to say, he swore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before, beside us, and above The firefly lights his lamp of love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16028]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before, beside us, and above The firefly lights his lamp of love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To-morrow is, ah, whose? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59462]]></link><description><![CDATA[To-morrow is, ah, whose?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cheek . . . Flushing white and mellow'd red;  Gradual tints, as when there glows   In snowy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14869]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cheek . . . Flushing white and mellow'd red;  Gradual tints, as when there glows   In snowy milk the bashful rose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless ourwalking is our preaching. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21130]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless ourwalking is our preaching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should feel sorrow, but not sink under its oppression. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66419]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should feel sorrow, but not sink under its oppression.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that action, not words, are the true criterion of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/402]]></link><description><![CDATA[A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that action, not words, are the true criterion of the attachment to friends; and that the most liberal professions of good-will are very far from being the surest marks of it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't try to force chemistry between two people or else it may just blow up at you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1479]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't try to force chemistry between two people or else it may just blow up at you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is not enough love and goodness in the world to permit giving any of it away to imaginary beings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63644]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is not enough love and goodness in the world to permit giving any of it away to imaginary beings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is more responsible for the good old days than a bad memory. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35117]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is more responsible for the good old days than a bad memory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was co-ed.
