Logic is designed to give inevitably true results starting from known true -- or assumed-to-be-true -- premises. Logic is a wonderful tool when we want only logical conclusions. We should not reject such a machine merely because it is not equipped to handle all of reality. The scientist who commits himself to use a logic machine is doing wisely, qua scientist, for use on data of science. But if he feeds into that machine convictions that there is not God, or ignores God because He is not in his corpus of data, and then draws from his logic the conclusion that God does not exist, his conclusion is irrelevant. Logic is a tool; it should not be made into a religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever a man does a thoroughly stupid thing, it is always from the noblest motives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever a man does a thoroughly stupid thing, it is always from the noblest motives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who knows where the skeletons are in the closets of (WTO) member states better than Pascal Lamy? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38830]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who knows where the skeletons are in the closets of (WTO) member states better than Pascal Lamy?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that hath the spice, may season as he list. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49358]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that hath the spice, may season as he list.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Controversy is only dreaded by the advocates of error. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56956]]></link><description><![CDATA[Controversy is only dreaded by the advocates of error.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not going to stop there.

Let us pray then with faith, and not lose the fruits of our prayers by a wavering uncertainty which, as St. James testifies, hinders the success of them. The same apostle advises us to pray when we are in trouble because thereby we should find consolation; yet we are so wretched that this heavenly employment is often a burden instead of a comfort to us. The lukewarmness of our prayers is the source of all our other infidelities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Well, then--our course is chosen--spread the sail-- Heave oft the lead, and mark the soundings well--  Look to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44010]]></link><description><![CDATA[Well, then--our course is chosen--spread the sail-- Heave oft the lead, and mark the soundings well--  Look to the helm, good master--many a shoal   Marks this stern coast, and rocks, where sits the Siren    Who, like ambition, lures men to their ruin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No, rather I abjure all roofs, and choose To wage against the emnity o' th' air,  To be a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44065]]></link><description><![CDATA[No, rather I abjure all roofs, and choose To wage against the emnity o' th' air,  To be a comrade with the wolf and owl,   Necessity's sharp pinch.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Worth makes the man, and want of it the fellow; The rest is all but leather and prunello. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Worth makes the man, and want of it the fellow; The rest is all but leather and prunello.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460  Thanksgiving is the language of heaven, and we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7699]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Patrick, Bishop of Armagh, Missionary, Patron of Ireland, c.460  Thanksgiving is the language of heaven, and we had better start to learn it if we are not to be mere dumb aliens there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vows made in storms are forgotten in calm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61032]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vows made in storms are forgotten in calm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61032</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We fear violence less than our own feelings.
