Thy Father's image vive; Word, that from nought did call What is, doth reason, live; The soul's eternal food, Earth's joy, delight of heaven; All truth, love, beauty, good: To thee, to thee be praises ever given! O glory of the heaven! O sole delight of earth! To thee all power be given, God's uncreated birth! Of mankind lover true, Indearer of his wrong, Who doth the world renew, Still be thou our salvation and our song!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When reality becomes unbearable, the mind must withdraw from it and create a world of artificial perfection.
