The load, or weight, or burden, of my neighbour's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship --or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. All day long we are, in some degree, helping each other to one or other of these destinations. It is in the light of these overwhelming possibilities, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[After working constantly in the 1980s, Armstrong tried his hand at screenwriting in the 1990s.

The problem is doubtless complicated, for there are many honest differences held with equal sincerity, but it is only made insoluble because the different denominations are (possibly unconsciously) imagining God to be Roman or Anglican or Baptist or Methodist or Presbyterian or what have you. If they could see beyond their little inadequate god, and glimpse the reality of God, they might even laugh a little and perhaps weep a little. The result would be a unity that actually does transcend differences, instead of ignoring them with public politeness and private contempt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Golf is a good walk spoiled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57761]]></link><description><![CDATA[Golf is a good walk spoiled.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The general sessions did a great job in presenting a top down view of the industry as a whole, managing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41696]]></link><description><![CDATA[The general sessions did a great job in presenting a top down view of the industry as a whole, managing to put all the pieces together in a perspective relative to each other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance! -Anonymous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blood will tell, but often it tells too much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4361]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blood will tell, but often it tells too much.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The courage of the Poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46783]]></link><description><![CDATA[The courage of the Poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is full of choices.

General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The supreme satisfaction is to be able to despise one's neighbor and this fact goes far to account for religious ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53295]]></link><description><![CDATA[The supreme satisfaction is to be able to despise one's neighbor and this fact goes far to account for religious intolerance.
