Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a lot different than my freshman year.

The first three gifts of the Spirit which God had set in the Church were apostles, prophets, and teachers, in addition to which the whole Church had a gift of government (I Cor. 12:4, 28). The decisions of the first council of the Church were first of all decrees of the Spirit (Acts 15:28). Paul had preached and created churches by the power of the Spirit (I Cor. 2:4; 1 Thess. 1:5,6; Gal. 3:2). In one Spirit were all believers baptized into one body (I Cor. 12:13: cf. Phil. 1:27). The Spirit therefore dwells in the Church as the principle of its entire united and common life (Eph. 2:18, 22; cf. I Cor. 3:16).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue and sense are one; and, trust me, still A faithless heart betrays the head unsound. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60762]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue and sense are one; and, trust me, still A faithless heart betrays the head unsound.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[... one who never hurts anyone's feelings unintentionally. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17365]]></link><description><![CDATA[... one who never hurts anyone's feelings unintentionally.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, Italy had been overrun by the War, there had practically been civil war, north and south of the Gothic ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35745]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, Italy had been overrun by the War, there had practically been civil war, north and south of the Gothic Line, heavy bombing, the northern industrial cities had been bombed heavily and we had political disorder before 1948.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The great act of faith is when a man decides he is not God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15023]]></link><description><![CDATA[The great act of faith is when a man decides he is not God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A position of authority is neither necessary nor sufficient for the exercise of leadership. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3499]]></link><description><![CDATA[A position of authority is neither necessary nor sufficient for the exercise of leadership.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[FIRE HAS LEFT THE HEARTH Fire has left the hearth Nautilus climbed from shell Perfume flowed from bottle Prisoner gone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18359]]></link><description><![CDATA[FIRE HAS LEFT THE HEARTH Fire has left the hearth Nautilus climbed from shell Perfume flowed from bottle Prisoner gone from cell Butterfly flutterbied cocoon nor hand restrained by glove Jesus away from manger Cage left by Spirit Dove. Sparklings soared away from wand. Chick's egg become the bird. Omkar sung from out the throat Violin's notes now heard. Buddhist temple pine cone tabernacle'd godlet seed Shattered that it might manifest thousand forests of fir tree Eternal snow of mountain top now nurses meadow flowers. Shining never held by sun relentless melts ice towers. Love has left its spring the heart Is now a liquid pond Host stolen from the chalice consumed in mouth of God Starlight abandoned star a billion years ago Left that tonight you might have its sight and know Know Love is forever no drop of God ever dies Lover not bound by form of love God's bodies are not God's souls (to his wife and children on the death of Robert S) (Baba Hari Das: is the author of love is more powerful than lover for love is not bound by form).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For, bless the gude mon, gin he had his ain way, He's na let a cat on the Sabbath say ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54593]]></link><description><![CDATA[For, bless the gude mon, gin he had his ain way, He's na let a cat on the Sabbath say "mew;"  Nae birdie maun whistle, nae lambie maun play,   An' Phoebus himsel' could na travel that day,    As he'd find a new Joshua in Andie Agnew.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was a bit of a run over the last few minutes of trading.

There is a multitude of these things wherever people live together. Nobody is too good for the meanest service...   We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God. God will be constantly crossing our paths and canceling our plans by sending us people with claims and petitions. We may pass them by, preoccupied with our more important tasks, as the priest passed by the man who had fallen among thieves, perhaps -- reading the Bible. When we do that, we pass by the visible sign of the Cross raised athwart our path to show us that not our way, but God's way must be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world will never starve for want of wonders; but only for want of wonder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61977]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world will never starve for want of wonders; but only for want of wonder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to bother you guys with a meeting request, so I was hoping you could pass on to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36846]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't want to bother you guys with a meeting request, so I was hoping you could pass on to Karl that Interior is about to approve a gaming compact and land in trust for a tribe which is an anathema to all our supporters down there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be careful with your words.
