It lies in the hearts and minds of all people. So let us not rest all our hopes on parchment and on paper, let us strive to build peace, a desire for peace, a willingness to work for peace in the hearts and minds of all of our people. I believe that we can. I believe the problems of human destiny are not beyond the reach of human beings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we are flat on our backs there is no way to look but up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12035]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we are flat on our backs there is no way to look but up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cooped in their winged sea-girt citadel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44014]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cooped in their winged sea-girt citadel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All mystics speak the same language, for they come from the same country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43596]]></link><description><![CDATA[All mystics speak the same language, for they come from the same country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All a musician can do is to get closer to the sources of nature, and so feel that he is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23140]]></link><description><![CDATA[All a musician can do is to get closer to the sources of nature, and so feel that he is in communion with the natural laws.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't see that conversation going that way at this point. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37692]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't see that conversation going that way at this point.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11779]]></link><description><![CDATA[The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on my plate with just a little piece of meat.

It has run its course. It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of the great truths that will be revealed if once we see free thought begin. We have seen it end.

You cannot fancy a more skeptical world than that in which men doubt whether there is a world. It might certainly have reached its bankruptcy more quickly and cleanly if it had not been feebly hampered by the application of indefensible laws of blasphemy or by the absurd pretense that modern England is Christian. But it would have reached the bankruptcy anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're pretty skinny and not very attractive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32518]]></link><description><![CDATA[They're pretty skinny and not very attractive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diplomacy is to do and say the nastiest things in the nicest way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12324]]></link><description><![CDATA[Diplomacy is to do and say the nastiest things in the nicest way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're very genuine, very humble.
