Again and again in the Pentateuch, the psalms, the prophets, and the subsequent writings which derive from them, the claim is made that the creator of the entire universe has chosen to live uniquely on a small ridge called Mount Zion, near the eastern edge of the Judean hill-country. The sheer absurdity of this claim, from the standpoint of any other worldview (not least that of Enlightenment philosophy), is staggering. The fact that Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Egypt again, Syria and now Rome had made explicit mockery of the idea did not shake this conviction, but only intensified it. This was what Jewish monotheism looked like on the ground.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride is innate in beauty, and haughtiness is the companion of the fair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50755]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride is innate in beauty, and haughtiness is the companion of the fair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the world's a stage, And all the men and merely players.

It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A single rose can be my garden . . . a single friend, my world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17182]]></link><description><![CDATA[A single rose can be my garden . . . a single friend, my world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need a plumber to install showers; we want to expand the playground for the children; we also want to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41498]]></link><description><![CDATA[We need a plumber to install showers; we want to expand the playground for the children; we also want to incorporate classes that will benefit the mothers into our schedule.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To get Peace you must work for Justice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45921]]></link><description><![CDATA[To get Peace you must work for Justice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you label me you negate me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you label me you negate me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am very excited to have another chance to race.
