Hence a man's reaction to Monarchy is a kind of test. Monarchy can easily be "debunked"; but watch the faces, mark well the accents, of the debunkers. These are the men whose tap-root in Eden has been cut: whom no rumour of the polyphony, the dance, can reach -- men to whom pebbles laid in a row are more beautiful than an arch. Yet even if they desire mere equality, they cannot reach it. Where men are forbidden to honour a king, they honour millionaires, athletes, or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing I found most striking in monitoring eviction cases was that judges didn't adjust anything (rent) for hurricane damage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32173]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thing I found most striking in monitoring eviction cases was that judges didn't adjust anything (rent) for hurricane damage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is either plagiarism or revolution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3259]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is either plagiarism or revolution.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7372]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, 1932 In the pure soul, whether it sing or pray, The Christ is born anew from day to day.

But -- I know not well whence it comes to pass -- the things spoken do not abide nor incorporate in our minds. They please and refresh for a little while, like a shower of rain in a dry season, that soaketh not unto the roots of things; the power of them doth not enter into us. Is it not from hence, that their notions of future things are not educed out of the experience which we have of the beginnings of them in this world? Yea, the soul is disturbed, not edified, in all contemplations of future glory, where things are proposed to it whereof in this life it hath neither foretaste, sense, experience, nor evidence. No man ought to look for anything in heaven, but what one way or other he hath some experience of in this life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not unusual to find meals or events held, not only in conference center rooms, but also in lounges, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35913]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not unusual to find meals or events held, not only in conference center rooms, but also in lounges, restaurants, around pool facilities or other outdoor locations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35913</guid></item></channel></rss>
