It has failed to understand that the world is not for the beholding. It is for hearing. It is not legible, but audible. Our science has always desired to monitor, measure, abstract, and castrate meaning, forgetting that life is full of noise and that death alone is silent: work noise, noise of man, and noise of beast. Noise bought, sold, or prohibited. Nothing essential happens in the absence of noise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Socrates ... said he was not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8795]]></link><description><![CDATA[Socrates ... said he was not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of fight or fly, This choice is left ye, to resist or die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6068]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of fight or fly, This choice is left ye, to resist or die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Child of mortality, whence comest thou?

Expressed more sharply, he has a strong sense of the Creator-creature distinction, never of merging or absorption. Or, to put it more sharply still, a Christian has a sense of his moral sin and not just of his metaphysical smallness in the face of the beyond. The dilemma for man is not who he is but what he has done. His predicament is not that he is small, but that he is sinful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor ; spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've run less risk driving my way across country than eating my way across it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22576]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've run less risk driving my way across country than eating my way across it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One should either be sad or joyful.

I remember you and recall you without effort, without exercise of will; that is, by natural impulse, indicated by a sense of duty, or of obligation. And that, I take it, is the only sort of remembering worth the having. When we think of friends, and call their faces out of the shadows, and their voices out of the echoes that faint along the corridors of memory, and do it without knowing why save that we love to do it, we content ourselves that friendship is a Reality, and not a Fancy -- that it is built upon a rock, and not upon the sands that dissolve away with the ebbing tides and carry their monuments with them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A hungry man, an angry man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50959]]></link><description><![CDATA[A hungry man, an angry man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50959</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He had a feeling that the answer was quite different and that he ought to know it, but he could ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15518]]></link><description><![CDATA[He had a feeling that the answer was quite different and that he ought to know it, but he could not think of it.
