However, not every one of them is inhabited. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely products of a deranged imagination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Between two stools one sits on the ground. [Fr., S'asseoir entre deux selles le cul a terre.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6069]]></link><description><![CDATA[Between two stools one sits on the ground. [Fr., S'asseoir entre deux selles le cul a terre.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We live under a government of men and morning newspapers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44499]]></link><description><![CDATA[We live under a government of men and morning newspapers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The future is as bright as the promises of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14574]]></link><description><![CDATA[The future is as bright as the promises of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am disappointed a little because there was no concrete thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30895]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am disappointed a little because there was no concrete thing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691  It is sometimes said that even if no rules were laid ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7818]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691  It is sometimes said that even if no rules were laid down for the conduct of its affairs, the Church, being created by Jesus to "further the work of the Kingdom of God", can be judged by the extent to which it is successful in continuing his work. This supposition rests upon a misunderstanding of what is meant by "the Kingdom of God"... The Kingdom itself is not something to be "furthered" or "built" by men's efforts. It is something which we are invited to recognize as already present, after a manner, in the life and work of Jesus. It is something to be inherited or entered into by those who believe. The task of the Church, in other words, is not to set the stage for a better world than this one but to draw the curtain from it, to reveal something that is already there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Byrd Amendment virtually defines corporate welfare.
