The difference lies not in the respective natures of savagery and civilization, but in their attendant circumstances, institutions, and so forth. The difference, therefore, does not operate in every sense, but it does in most of them. Even the most civilized peoples, in short, can be fired with passionate hatred for each other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All good things are wild, and free. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17833]]></link><description><![CDATA[All good things are wild, and free.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Justin, Martyr at Rome, c.165 Commemoration of Angela de'Merici, Founder of the Institute of St. Ursula, 1540  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Justin, Martyr at Rome, c.165 Commemoration of Angela de'Merici, Founder of the Institute of St. Ursula, 1540  This astonishing sense of spiritual attack which, it seems to me, must inevitably follow the continual reading of the four Gospels, without preconception but with an alert mind, is not the sole privilege of the translator. It can happen to anyone who is prepared to abandon proof-texts and a closed attitude of mind, and allow not merely the stories but the quality of the Figure Who exists behind the stories to meet him afresh. Neat snippets of a few verses are of course useful in their way, but the overall sweep and much of the significance of the Gospel narratives are lost to us unless we are prepared to read the Gospels through, not once but several times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17060]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We did a fantastic job.

The Mother coming up, and missing one of her sons, inquired of his brothers what had become of him. He is dead, dear Mother; for just now a very huge beast with four great feet came to the pool and crushed him to death with his cloven heel. The Frog, puffing herself out, inquired, if the beast was as big as that in size. Cease, Mother, to puff yourself out, said her son, and do not be angry; for you would, I assure you, sooner burst than successfully imitate the hugeness of that monster.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bettors looking to cash in on their NFL betting intuition have only a few days left to bet on the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30939]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bettors looking to cash in on their NFL betting intuition have only a few days left to bet on the outcome of Sunday's Super Bowl.
