If it be no crime, both prudence and courage should engage us to rid ourselves at once of existence when it becomes a burden. It is the only way that we can then be useful to society, by setting an example which, if imitated, would preserve every one his chance for happiness in life, and would effectually free him from all danger or misery.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The courtier's, soldier's, scholar's, eye, tongue, sword, Th' expectancy and rose of the fair state,  The glass of fashion ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15345]]></link><description><![CDATA[The courtier's, soldier's, scholar's, eye, tongue, sword, Th' expectancy and rose of the fair state,  The glass of fashion and the mould of form,   Th' observed of all observers, quite, quite down!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Although the last, not least. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51556]]></link><description><![CDATA[Although the last, not least.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51556</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This autonomy of man, this attempt of the Ego to understand itself out of itself, is the lie concerning man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6222]]></link><description><![CDATA[This autonomy of man, this attempt of the Ego to understand itself out of itself, is the lie concerning man which we call sin. The truth about man is that his ground is not in himself but in God -- that his essence is not in self sufficient reason but in the Word, in the challenge of God, in responsibility, not in self-sufficiency. The true being of man is realized when he bases himself upon God's Word. Faith is then not an impossibility or a salto mortale [mortal leap], but that which is truly natural; and the real salto mortale (a mortal leap indeed!) is just the assertion of autonomy, self-sufficiency, God-likeness. [It is] through this usurped independence [that] man separates himself from God, and at the same time isolates himself from his fellows. Individualism is the necessary consequence of rational autonomy, just as love is the necessary consequence of faith.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know that Deformed. -Much Ado about Nothing.

Every invention was considered impossible. Every discovery was a nervous shock to some orthodoxy. Every artistic innovation was denounced as fraud and folly. The entire web of culture and "progress," everything on earth that is man-made and not given to us by nature, is the concrete manifestation of some man's refusal to bow to Authority. We would own no more, know no more, and be no more than the first apelike hominids if it were not for the rebellious, the recalcitrant, and the intransigent. As Oscar Wilde truly said, "Disobedience was man's Original Virtue."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One heat another heat expels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51534]]></link><description><![CDATA[One heat another heat expels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm just a hoofer with a spare set of tails ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35158]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm just a hoofer with a spare set of tails]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35158</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12626]]></link><description><![CDATA[That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:  From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom sails with wind and time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64965]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom sails with wind and time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sorrow and the scarlet leaf, Sad thoughts and sunny weather;  Ah me! this glory and this grief   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3566]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sorrow and the scarlet leaf, Sad thoughts and sunny weather;  Ah me! this glory and this grief   Agree not well together!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mathematicians are like Frenchmen: whatever you say to them they translate into their own language and forthwith it is something ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mathematicians are like Frenchmen: whatever you say to them they translate into their own language and forthwith it is something entirely different.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it weren't for electricity we'd all be watching television by candlelight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17065]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it weren't for electricity we'd all be watching television by candlelight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Suffer all, and conquer all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Suffer all, and conquer all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first day a guest, the second day a guest, the third day a calamity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19872]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first day a guest, the second day a guest, the third day a calamity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let the little fairy in you fly! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19657]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let the little fairy in you fly!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the last few minutes, I thought we took a few bad penalties.
