There is a Pagan, savage heart in me somewhere. For unfortunately the folly and idiot-cunning of Paganism seem to have far more power of surviving than its innocent or even beautiful elements. It is easy, once you have power, to silence the pipes, still the dances, disfigure the statues, and forget the stories; but not easy to kill the savage, the greedy, frightened creature now cringing, now blustering in one's soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We always thought it could be a dangerous hurricane, ... is the typical track for October. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40859]]></link><description><![CDATA[We always thought it could be a dangerous hurricane, ... is the typical track for October.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While the quarter's financials are important, the stock performance keys off the PeopleSoft decision.

We allowed you a charade of trivial freedoms in order to avoid making those impositions on you that are in the end both the training ground and proving ground for true independence. We pronounced you strong when you were still weak in order to avoid the struggles with you that would have fed your true strength. We proclaimed you sound when you were foolish in order to avoid taking part in the long, slow, slogging effort that is the only route to genuine maturity of mind and feeling. Thus, it was no small anomaly of your growing up that while you were the most indulged generation, you were also in many ways the most abandoned to your own meager devices by those into whose safe-keeping you had been given.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The go-between wears out a thousand sandals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44363]]></link><description><![CDATA[The go-between wears out a thousand sandals.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a small segment complaining on their own.
