In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world.

We hover around these reservations, making believe not to see them, for fear of self-reproach.

This is what He touched then," we are given an evergreen memorial [in communion] which says, "This is what He touches now.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Freedom is the only law which genius knows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65378]]></link><description><![CDATA[Freedom is the only law which genius knows.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is a bribe to make the housekeeper think she's a householder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26429]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is a bribe to make the housekeeper think she's a householder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law of harvest is to reap more than you sow.
