It’s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, Do you remember that night we...? But you don’t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What I assert and believe to have demonstrated in this and earlier works is that following the finite there is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20818]]></link><description><![CDATA[What I assert and believe to have demonstrated in this and earlier works is that following the finite there is a transfinite (which one could also call the supra-finite), that is an unbounded ascending lader of definite modes, which by their nature are not finite but infinite, but which just like the finite can be determined by well-defined and distinguishable numbers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wilson Carlile, Priest, Founder of the Church Army, 1942    A man's physical hunger does not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8557]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wilson Carlile, Priest, Founder of the Church Army, 1942    A man's physical hunger does not prove that that man will get any bread; he may die of starvation on a raft in the Atlantic. But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a woman and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called `falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capitalism and communism stand at opposite poles.

Yet even then, we have not reached the centre. For when we worship, we are in God's presence, and it is what He says and does to us that is the all-important thing, not what we say and do toward Him. Since He is here and speaking to us, face to face, it is for us, in a hush of spirit, to listen for and to His voice, reproving counseling, encouraging, revealing His most blessed will for us; and, with diligence, to set about immediate obedience. This and this, upon which He has laid His hand, must go; and this and this to which He calls us must be at once begun. And here and now I start to it. That is the heart of worship, its very core and essence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I will not go down to posterity talking bad grammar. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18128]]></link><description><![CDATA[I will not go down to posterity talking bad grammar.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great Spirit, help me never to judge another until I have walked in his moccasins. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/831]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great Spirit, help me never to judge another until I have walked in his moccasins.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An idle head is a boxe for the winde. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49119]]></link><description><![CDATA[An idle head is a boxe for the winde.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49119</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The love of money is the root of all evil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42997]]></link><description><![CDATA[The love of money is the root of all evil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You may go to Carlisle's and to Almanac's too; And I'll give you my Head if you find such a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20985]]></link><description><![CDATA[You may go to Carlisle's and to Almanac's too; And I'll give you my Head if you find such a Host,  For Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, Butter, or Toast;   How he welcomes at once all the World and his Wife,    And how civil to Folks he ne'er saw in his Life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think anybody yet has invented a pastime that's as much fun, or keeps you as young, as a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5112]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think anybody yet has invented a pastime that's as much fun, or keeps you as young, as a good job.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truth must necessarily be stranger than fiction, for fiction is the creation of the human mind and therefore congenial to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25347]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truth must necessarily be stranger than fiction, for fiction is the creation of the human mind and therefore congenial to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On their side the workers had only the Constitution.

Surely that is not wholly true. It certainly must help us if we recognize that it is the presence of the Holy Spirit which creates a unity which we can never create.If men believe in the existence of this unity, they may begin to desire it, and desiring it to seek for it, and seeking it to find it. If, when they find it, they refuse to deny it, in due time, by ways now unsearchable, they will surely return to external communion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of all ills that one endures, hope is a cheap and universal cure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21793]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of all ills that one endures, hope is a cheap and universal cure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no greater grief than to remember days of joy when misery is at hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42789]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no greater grief than to remember days of joy when misery is at hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42789</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The awful importance of this life is that it determines eternity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66781]]></link><description><![CDATA[The awful importance of this life is that it determines eternity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A normal show would cost somebody to have a professional handler, about $75 a show.
