Here, too, appear the lighthouses of the mind, with their outward resemblance to less pure symbols. The gateway to mystery swings open at the touch of human weakness and we have entered the realms of darkness. One false step, one slurred syllable together reveal a man's thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People now realize there are opportunities to move up in the department as a whole. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29278]]></link><description><![CDATA[People now realize there are opportunities to move up in the department as a whole.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet if thou didst but know how little wit governs this mighty universe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17979]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet if thou didst but know how little wit governs this mighty universe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Laws too gentle are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18068]]></link><description><![CDATA[Laws too gentle are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being No. 1, we were definitely content with that.

He is your ally. He is our ally, be he at the other end of the world. Love all living things whose humble task is not opposed in any way to yours, to ours: men with simple hearts, honest, without vanity and malice, and all the animals, because they are beautiful, without exception and without exception indifferent to whatever "idea" there may be. Love them, and you will see the eternal in the glance of their eyes of jet, amber, or emerald. Love also the trees, the plants, the water that runs though the meadow and on to the sea without knowing where it goes; love the mountain, the desert, the forest, the immense sky, full of light or full of clouds; because all these exceed man and reveal the eternal to you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Debters are lyers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49195]]></link><description><![CDATA[Debters are lyers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64580]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why don't you want to do what you know you should do?

They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Show me the business man or institution not guided by sentiment and service;
