It is no use passing judgments and making scapegoats of this or that individual statesman or group of statesmen. Idealists make a great mistake in not facing the real facts sincerely and resolutely. They believe in the power of the spirit, in the goodness which is at the heart of things, in the triumph which is in store for the great moral ideals of the race. But this great faith only too often leads to an optimism which is sadly and fatally at variance with actual results. It is the realist and not the idealist who is generally justified by events. We forget that the human spirit, the spirit of goodness and truth in the world, is still only an infant crying in the night, and that the struggle with darkness is as yet mostly an unequal struggle. . . . Paris proved this terrible truth once more. It was not Wilson who failed there, but humanity itself. It was not the statesmen that failed, so much as the spirit of the peoples behind them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After that, we tried to figure out a way to get more voices with us and how to be heard ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28527]]></link><description><![CDATA[After that, we tried to figure out a way to get more voices with us and how to be heard and get respect here in Denmark.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ye mariners of England! That guard our native seas;  Whose flag has braved a thousand years,   The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16128]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ye mariners of England! That guard our native seas;  Whose flag has braved a thousand years,   The battle and the breeze!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the biblical miracles will at last disappear with the progress of science. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27574]]></link><description><![CDATA[All the biblical miracles will at last disappear with the progress of science.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who sees action in inaction and inaction in action hasunderstanding among men and discipline in all action he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22767]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who sees action in inaction and inaction in action hasunderstanding among men and discipline in all action he performs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24128]]></link><description><![CDATA[And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living color, you're about to see another first -- an attempted suicide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Margery Kempe, Mystic, after 1433  If you believe, where are your works?

Your faith is something everyone knows, for everyone knows that Christ was [crucified], and that everywhere men pray to Him. The whole world knows that His glory has not been spread by force and weapons, but by poor fishermen. 0 wise man, do you think the poor fishermen were not clever enough for this? Where they worked, there they made hearts better; where they could not work, there men remained bad; and therefore was the faith true and from God. The signs which the Lord had promised followed their teaching: in His name they drove out the devil; they spoke in new tongues; if they drank any deadly drink, they received therefrom no harm. Even if these wonders had not occurred, there would have been the wonder of wonders, that poor fishermen without any miracle could accomplish so great a work as the faith. It came from God, and so is Christ true, and Christ is thy God, who is in heaven and awaits thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never was anything so inconsistent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50300]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never was anything so inconsistent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is happening right now is that there are thousands and thousands of people all over the world sending their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29217]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is happening right now is that there are thousands and thousands of people all over the world sending their prayers for Daniel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before the gates of excellence the high gods have placed sweat; long is the road thereto and rough and steep ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22000]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before the gates of excellence the high gods have placed sweat; long is the road thereto and rough and steep at first; but when the heights are reached, then there is ease, though grievously hard in the winning. - Works and Days.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The voice of conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60930]]></link><description><![CDATA[The voice of conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear that it is impossible to mistake it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So shaken as we are, so wan with care. -King Henry IV.
