It would not be true to affirm that the denominations are not religious groups with religious purposes; but it is true that they represent the accommodation of religion to the caste system. They are emblems, therefore, of the victory of the world over the church, of the secularization of Christianity, of the church's sanction of that divisiveness which the church's gospel condemns.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes someone has to hurt you deep enough to make you realize how better your life is without them in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63133]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes someone has to hurt you deep enough to make you realize how better your life is without them in it...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou hast seen a farmer's dog bark at a beggar? . . .

That glorious form, that light insufferable,  And that far-beaming blaze majesty, Wherewith he wont at Heaven's high council-table To sit the midst of Trinal Unity He laid aside, and, here with us to be.    Forsook the courts of everlasting day,  And chose with us a darksome house of mortal clay.  Say, Heavenly Muse, shall not thy sacred vein  Afford a present to the Infant God? Hast thou no verse, no hymn, or solemn strain,  To welcome him to this his new abode,  Now while the heaven, by the Sun's team untrod,    Hath took no print of the approaching light,  And all the spangled host keep watch in squadrons bright? See how from far upon the eastern road The star-led wizards haste with odours sweet! Oh, run! present them with thy humble ode, And lay it lowly at his blessed feet; Have thou the honour first thy Lord to greet,    And join thy voice unto the Angel Quire,  From out his secret altar touched with hallowed fire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music must rank as the highest of the arts -- more than any other, it ministers to human welfare. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43504]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music must rank as the highest of the arts -- more than any other, it ministers to human welfare.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He does it with a better grace, but I do it more natural. -Twelfth Night.
