That is good, as far as it goes... But better still is the advice to study the Bible objectively, ... without regard, first of all, to our own subjective needs. Let the great passages fix themselves in our memory. Let them stay there permanently, like bright beacons, launching their powerful shafts of light upon life's problems -- our own and everyone's -- as they illumine, now one, now another dark area of human life. Following such a method, we discover that the Bible does "speak to our condition" and meet our needs, not just occasionally or when some emergency arises, but continually.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it or leave it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63531]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it or leave it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That it shall hold companionship in peace With honour, as in war. -Coriolanus.

But in fact intellectual progress usually occurs through sheer abandonment of questions together with both of the alternatives they assume - an abandonment that results from their decreasing vitality and change of urgent interest. We do not solve them: we get over them. Old questions are solved by disappearing, evaporating, while new questions corresponding to the changed attitude of endeavor and preference take their place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63781]]></link><description><![CDATA[The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are hoarding potentials so great that they are just aboutunimaginable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21856]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are hoarding potentials so great that they are just aboutunimaginable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa - slightly off balance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3670]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa - slightly off balance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In vain have you tried your father's arts, you slippery one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51813]]></link><description><![CDATA[In vain have you tried your father's arts, you slippery one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know.
