Enacting it doesn’t give them power. Enacting it gives them lives that are satisfying and meaningful to them. This is what you’ll find if you go among them. They’re not seething with discontent and rebellion, not incessantly wrangling over what should be allowed and what forbidden, not forever accusing each other of not living the right way, not living in terror of each other not going crazy because their lives seem empty and pointless, not having to stupefy themselves with drugs to get through the days, not having a new religion every week to give them something to hold on to, not forever searching for something to do or something to believe in that will make lives worth living. And – I repeat – this is not because they live close to nature or have no formal government or because they’re innately noble. This is simply because they’re enacting a story that works well for people – a story that worked well for three million years and that still works well where the Takers haven’t yet managed to stamp it out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're doing fundraising, providing food, housing clothing, whatever she needs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30379]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're doing fundraising, providing food, housing clothing, whatever she needs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Detested sport, That owes its pleasures to another's pain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10787]]></link><description><![CDATA[Detested sport, That owes its pleasures to another's pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I only want people around me who can do the impossible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34425]]></link><description><![CDATA[I only want people around me who can do the impossible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Organized crime constitutes nothing less than a guerilla war against society. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Organized crime constitutes nothing less than a guerilla war against society.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Douglas Downes, Founder of the Society of Saint Francis, 1957  For the Platonic or Aristotelian philosophy it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Douglas Downes, Founder of the Society of Saint Francis, 1957  For the Platonic or Aristotelian philosophy it is of no importance whether Plato or Aristotle ever lived. For the mystical practice of an Indian, Persian, Chinese, or Neo-Platonic mystic it is a matter of indifference whether Rama, Buddha, Laotse, or Porphyrius are myths or not. The mystic has no personal relation to them. It is not here a question of somebody telling me the truth which of myself I cannot find, but of my finding an access to the depths of the world in the depths of my soul. And everywhere the tendency is to eliminate personality. Even where religion does not have this mystical character, it has no relation to an historical person, who communicates himself to me. That is the characteristic essence of the Christian faith alone. Even where a prophet plays the role of a mediator of divine truth, as for example in Islam, the religious act is not directed toward him but toward his teaching or message. But the Christian does not believe in the teachings of Jesus -- which would not be Christian faith, but general religion -- he believes in Christ Himself as being the Word of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness comes when you believe in what you are doing, know what you are doing, and love what you are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63194]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness comes when you believe in what you are doing, know what you are doing, and love what you are doing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The King has become a failure in his mission for which he had assumed power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41279]]></link><description><![CDATA[The King has become a failure in his mission for which he had assumed power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Better be despised for too anxious apprehensions, than ruined by too confident security. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55034]]></link><description><![CDATA[Better be despised for too anxious apprehensions, than ruined by too confident security.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People are very open-minded about new things--as long as they're exactly like the old ones. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59437]]></link><description><![CDATA[People are very open-minded about new things--as long as they're exactly like the old ones.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As lousy as things are now, tomorrow they will be somebody's good old days. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19431]]></link><description><![CDATA[As lousy as things are now, tomorrow they will be somebody's good old days.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of William Morris, Artist, Writer, 1896 Commemoration of George Kennedy Bell, Bishop of Chichester, Ecumenist, Peacemaker, 1958  The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7029]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of William Morris, Artist, Writer, 1896 Commemoration of George Kennedy Bell, Bishop of Chichester, Ecumenist, Peacemaker, 1958  The only ultimate disaster that can befall us, I have come to realize, is to feel ourselves at home here on earth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our opportunities to do good are our talents. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our opportunities to do good are our talents.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Follow the Romany Patteran Sheer to the Austral light,  Where the bosom of God is the wild west wind, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59628]]></link><description><![CDATA[Follow the Romany Patteran Sheer to the Austral light,  Where the bosom of God is the wild west wind,   Sweeping the sea floors white.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For whom he means to make an often guest, One dish shall serve; and welcome make the rest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18427]]></link><description><![CDATA[For whom he means to make an often guest, One dish shall serve; and welcome make the rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each and every master, regardless of the era or the place, heard the call and attained harmony with heaven and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66778]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each and every master, regardless of the era or the place, heard the call and attained harmony with heaven and earth.

The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The gas situation is a concern. But we'll meet our obligations.
